Synthesis and evaluation of novel Cu-based adsorbent-containing catalysts for CO₂ hydrogenation to methanol and value-added products by Rim Ismail (18192922)

“…Increased Cu content from 10 wt% to 30 wt% with fixed CaO content of 10 wt% resulted in a small increase in CO₂ conversion where the highest CO₂ conversion of 16.44% and the highest methanol selectivity (17.75%) were obtained for catalyst containing 20 wt% of copper. …”

Metabolic Profiling of Exercise-induced Autophagy-dependent Metabolites in Mouse Plasma by Fadel, Joanna

“…Our results show that exercise induced distinct metabolic changes in mouse plasma, with several metabolites, including pregeijerene, androsterone glucuronide, meproscillarin, and N-acetyl methionine, showing significant increases in the exercise group. These changes were largely attenuated by CQ treatment, suggesting their dependence on autophagy. …”

Evaluation of cell disruption methods for protein and coenzyme Q10 quantification in purple non-sulfur bacteria by Ojima Z. Wada (14155734)

“…However, due to PNSB’s peculiar cell envelope (e.g., increased membrane cross-section for energy transduction) and relatively smaller cell size compared to well-studied microbial protein sources like yeast and microalgae, the effectiveness of common cell disruption methods for protein quantification from PNSB may differ. …”

A novel phosphorylated STAT3 inhibitor enhances T cell cytotoxicity against melanoma through inhibition of regulatory T cells by Abou-Ghazal, Mohamed K.

“…The activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) has been identified as a key mediator that drives the fundamental components of melanoma malignancy, including immune suppression in melanoma patients. Increasing evidence also suggests that regulatory T cells (Tregs) are important in suppressing anti-tumor immunity and play a dominant role in negating efficacious immunotherapy approaches. …”
