Influence of polymer structure and amount on microstructure and properties of polyethylene-modified asphalt binders حسب K. Lakshmi Roja (14159028)

"…The equivalent diameter of PE domains increased with time and the polymer dosage level. The addition of PE wax improved the polymer dispersity in the LDPE4 blends. …"

How does varying the number of personas affect user perceptions and behavior? Challenging the ‘small personas’ hypothesis! حسب Joni Salminen (7434770)

"…Our study results from eye-tracking and survey data suggest that when using interactive persona systems, the number of personas can be increased from the conventionally suggested ‘less than ten’, without significant negative effects on user perceptions or task performance, and with the positive effects of increasing engagement with the personas, having a more diverse representation of the end-user population, as well as users accessing personas from more varied demographic groups for a design task. …"

PGE2 induces COX-2 expression in podocytes via the EP4 receptor through a PKA-independent mechanism حسب Faour, Wissam

"…In the present study we further delineate the signaling pathways regulating podocyte COX-2 induction. Time course experiments carried out in conditionally-immortalized mouse podocytes revealed that PGE2 transiently increased phosphorylated p38 MAPK levels at 10 min, and induced COX-2 protein expression at 4 h. siRNA-mediated knockdown of EP4 receptor expression, unlike treatment with the EP1 receptor antagonist SC 19220, completely abrogated PGE2-induced p38 phosphorylation and COX-2 upregulation suggesting the involvement of the EP4 receptor subtype. …"
