A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…However, questions related to its mechanism of interaction with the substrate, furimazine, as well as bioluminescence activity remain elusive. Here, we combined molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and mutational analysis to show that the R162A mutation results in a decreased but stable <u>bioluminescence </u>activity of NLuc in living cells and in vitro. …”

Decreased Interfacial Dynamics Caused by the N501Y Mutation in the SARS-CoV-2 S1 Spike:ACE2 Complex by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…Additionally, we find that the N501Y mutant S1-RBD displays altered dynamics that likely aids in its enhanced interaction with ACE2. …”

Notch Signaling Inhibition by LY411575 Attenuates Osteoblast Differentiation and Decreased Ectopic Bone Formation Capacity of Human Skeletal (Mesenchymal) Stem Cells by Nihal AlMuraikhi (6002234)

“…Among the tested molecules, LY411575, a potent γ-secretase and Notch signaling inhibitor, exhibited significant inhibitory effects on osteoblastic differentiation of hBMSCs manifested by reduced ALP activity, mineralized matrix formation, and decreased osteoblast-specific gene expression as well as in vivo ectopic bone formation. …”

Performance evaluation of 3D-printed PLA composites doped with WE43 magnesium alloy for bone tissue engineering applications by Sumama Nuthana Kalva (17302906)

“…While a low Mg content (5 %) only slightly impacted the print quality and dimensions, higher Mg concentrations (10 % and 15 %) led to increased weight, rougher surfaces, dimensional shrinkage in height, and overall poorer formation quality. Adding WE43 alloy to PLA decreased the average pore sizes of the composites. …”

Indomethacin as a Rescue Therapy for Patent Ductus Arteriosus in Extremely Premature Infants after Failed Ibuprofen Treatment by Amal Sabouni (17046236)

“…While most PDAs close after one 3-day course of either medicine, a repeat course may be necessary before considering surgical ligation for those who remain with hsPDAs. In our practice, we administer one or two courses of ibuprofen followed by a single course of indomethacin if the PDA has not shown closure or decrease in size on the echocardiogram (echo) exam. …”

The Anti-Tumor Agent Sodium Selenate Decreases Methylated PP2A, Increases GSK3βY216 Phosphorylation, Including Tau Disease Epitopes and Reduces Neuronal Excitability in SHSY-5Y Neu... by Wesal Habbab (17346961)

“…Somewhat surprisingly, the catalytically active form, methylated PP2A (mePP2A) was significantly decreased. In close correlation to these data, the phosphorylation state of two substrate proteins, sensitive to PP2A activity, GSK3β and Tau were found to be increased. …”

Bank-Specific and Macroeconomic Determinants of Islamic Banks Profitability: The Case of GCC Countries by Al Malkawie, Dia'

“…The bank’s profitability is measured by the return on asset (ROA), whereas the independent variables that tested are capital adequacy ratio, operational efficiency, assets quality, financial leverage, bank size, liquidity risk, GDP growth, and inflation rate. The regression results indicate that bank-specific determinants including capital adequacy ratio, financial leverage, and operational efficiency are statistically significant and have negative relationship with the Islamic bank’s profitability. …”
