Cytotoxicity of [HuArgI (co)-PEG5000]-induced arginine deprivation to ovarian Cancer cells is autophagy dependent by Nasreddine, Ghenwa

“…[HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000]-induced arginine deprivation led to extensive and prolonged activation of autophagy, which proved to be deleterious to cell survival since its inhibition led to a significant decrease in cytotoxicity. This indicates that the activation of autophagy following arginine-deprivation, rather than being protective, mediates cell cytotoxicity leading to death by autophagy.…”

3D printing of circular materials: Comparative environmental analysis of materials and construction techniques by Shoukat Alim Khan (14778226)

“…The main environmental "hot spot" identified for the geopolymer-based 3D printed construction process was the amount of electrical energy required for the mechanical processing of waste materials, which was more than 61% of the total GWP impact. In addition to decreasing solid CDW, the developed approach has significant potential for improvement by using more sustainable energy sources and reducing the amount of solid CDW generated.…”
