ZnO-Doped gC₃N₄Nanocapsules for Enhancing the Performance of Electroless NiP Coating─Mechanical, Corrosion Protection, and Antibacterial Properties<sub>3</sub... by Fatma Nabhan (16324958)

“…The highest corrosion resistance is achieved on the heat-treated NiP-C₃N₄/1.0 wt % ZnO coatings. Although the presence of ZnO in the C₃N₄ nanocapsules increased its surface area and porosity, the C₃N₄/ZnO nanocapsules prevented localized corrosion by filling the microdefects and pores of the NiP matrix. …”

Inositol 1,4,5-Trisphosphate Receptors in Hypertension by Ali H. Eid (5461829)

“…Evidence supports a role for vascular aging in the development of hypertension involving an impairment in endothelial function together with an alteration in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) calcium homeostasis leading to increased myogenic tone. Changes in free intracellular calcium levels ([Ca²⁺]_<em>i</em>) are mediated either by the influx of Ca²⁺ from the extracellular space or release of Ca²⁺ from intracellular stores, mainly the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). …”
