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 by 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. …”

Drug-free phototherapy of superficial tumors by Mehanna, Stephanie

“…While previous data proved its inherent cytotoxicity, this study is the first to explore the use of a commercially available, high-intensity white LED light (24.5 mW.cm−2) as a treatment for skin tumors. After a 9-h exposure in vitro, the viability of Human Malignant Melanoma cells (A375) decreased by around 70%. …”

Interactions between riluzole and ABCG2/BCRP transporter by Milane, Aline

“…Assays on mdr1a (−/−) mice and BeWo cells showed a higher uptake of riluzole when pretreated with a BCRP inhibitor. After repeated doses of riluzole, BCRP activity was increased in CF1 mdr1a (−/−) mice, riluzole uptake was decrease and both BCRP expression and activity were increased in BeWo cells. …”

Targeting arginine auxotrophy in pancreatic cancer cells using human recombinant arginase I-induced arginine deprivation. (c2017) by 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.…”

Consumers’ health-locus-of-control and social distancing in pandemic-based e-tailing services by Itani, Omar S.

“…In particular, consumers’ internal (external) health locus-of-control drives higher (lower) hygiene consciousness and greater (lower) social distancing behavior. In turn, consumers’ online grocery shopping behavior was found to increase during the pandemic, with their corresponding intent to continue this behavior in the future. …”
