Salicylic acid restricts mercury translocation by activating strong antioxidant defense mechanisms in sweet pepper (Capsicum annum L.) by Muhammad Fasih Khalid (10652246)

“…The maximum decrease in photosynthetic machinery, plant growth attributes (shoot length, root length, no. of leaves, fresh and dry biomass (shoot and root)), and more accumulation of Hg in leaves, roots, and fruits of sweet pepper. Additionally, SA significantly reduced the reduction in photosynthetic attributes and plant growth, and increased antioxidant enzymes (SOD, POD, and CAT) under Hg toxicity. …”

Nicotine induces resilience to chronic social defeat stress in a mouse model of water pipe tobacco exposure by activating BDNF signaling by Khalifeh, Mohamad

“…Even though WTS initially decreased anxiety-like behaviors, prolonged exposure after the completion of CSDS significantly induced anxiety-like behaviors. Finally, we showed that nicotine mediates the effects of WTS only on resilience to stress by increasing BDNF and TRKB levels and signaling. …”

Selective induction of apoptosis in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia by pristimerin through dual PI3K/AKT pathway inhibition and ROS generation by Shilpa Kuttikrishnan (3520079)

“…In this study, we demonstrate that Prist effectively inhibits the proliferation of T-ALL cell lines (Jurkat and Molt 4) by inducing G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and triggering intrinsic and extrinsic caspase-dependent apoptosis. Prist significantly increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and depletes glutathione (GSH), leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and cytochrome c release. …”

Outcomes of drain versus no drain in total knee arthroplasty: a retrospective cohort study by Anas Albasha (17765964)

“…Moreover, tranexamic acid (TXA) use (n = 106) in surgery reduced hospital stays, tourniquet time, drain output, and increased pre- and postoperative haemoglobin and hematocrit levels compared to no TXA group (n = 156) (p < 0.05, z-score reported).…”

Akkermansia, a Possible Microbial Marker for Poor Glycemic Control in Qataris Children Consuming Arabic Diet—A Pilot Study on Pediatric T1DM in Qatar by Arun Prasath Lakshmanan (16444663)

“…The results have revealed that the subjects who had undergone CSII therapy had increased microbial diversity and genus <i>Akkermansia</i> was significantly enriched in the subjects without CSII therapy. …”

Impacts of COVID-19 pandemic on environment, society, and food security by Hafiz Mohkum Hammad (17541432)

“…COVID-19 affected all sections of the population, particularly the most vulnerable members of society, and thus pushed more people into poverty. At the world level, it increased risks to food safety by increasing prices and lowering revenues, forcing households to reduce their food consumption in terms of quantity and quality. …”

Deep Learning for the Accurate Prediction of Triggered Drug Delivery by Husseini, Ghaleb

“…The model accurately predicts drug release from liposomes and MOFs under various conditions, including low- and high-frequency ultrasound (extrinsic triggering), microwave exposure (extrinsic triggering), ultraviolet light exposure (extrinsic triggering), and different pH levels (intrinsic triggering). The deep learning-based predictions significantly outperform linear predictions, proving the utility of advanced computational methods in drug delivery. …”
