Urban Geometry: The Effect of Height Diversity and Buildings Configuration on Thermal Performance and Cooling Load at Urban Scale. A Case Study in Dubai / UAE حسب SHAREEF, SUNDUS LUAY

"…Furthermore, building orientation plays a significant role in the thermal performance of the urban block, and it contributes to the total cooling load energy saving of the urban block by 6.6 % at the peak time of cooling demand. Moreover, the research found that the variation in building heights will increase the wind velocity by up to 23 %, and this improvement in air flow affects the outdoor air temperature positively. …"

Targeting arginine auxotrophy in pancreatic cancer cells using human recombinant arginase I-induced arginine deprivation. (c2017) حسب Khalil, Nathalie

"…We have established that autophagy, a process of cellular destruction activated in response to arginine deprivation, can be the leading cause of cell death at late drug incubation times. Hence, our study demonstrates that HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000 is a novel, potent and selective potential therapeutic approach for PC.…"
