Screening of Qatari Microalgae and Cyanobacteria for Application in CO2 Utilization by Schipper, Kira

“…Overall, it can be concluded that for both microalgal strains (Tetraselmis sp. and Picochlorum maculatum) increased CO2 concentrations resulted in a significantly increased productivity, and as of such they would be the most interesting to further investigate for direct coupling to enriched CO2 gas sources, such as industrial flue gasses. …”

Reduced vasorin enhances angiotensin II signaling within the aging arterial wall by Pintus, Gianfranco

“…The physical interaction between vasorin and TGF-β1 was significantly decreased in old vs. young VSMCs. Further, exposing young VSMCs to Ang II increased the levels of matrix metalloproteinase type II (MMP-2) activation and TGF-β1 downstream molecules p-SMAD-2/3 and collagen type I production up to the levels of old untreated VSMCs, and these effects were substantially inhibited by overexpressing vasorin. …”
