Evaluation of Satellite Retrievals of Chlorophyll-a in the Arabian Gulf
(
MDPI
, 2017 , Article)
The Arabian Gulf is a highly turbid, shallow sedimentary basin whose coastal areas have been classified as optically complex Case II waters (where ocean colour sensors have been proved to be unreliable). Yet, there is no ...
Hypolithic cyanobacteria colonization of quartz at South Desert
(
Science Publications
, 2014 , Article)
Hypolithic microbial communities (found underneath rocks) were encountered in the southern desert of Qatar where quartz rocks are ubiquitous and are a substrate for hypoliths. These hypoliths thrive where extreme temperature, ...
Real-Time PCR Quantification of Metallothionein Gene Expression in Sprague–Dawley Rats Chronically Exposed to Cd
(
American Association for Laboratory Animal Science
, 2012 , Presentation)
Toxicologic impact of Cd leads to multiple human pathologic conditions,
and its effect on humans and animals has been extensively studied.
Physiologic function of metallothionein (MT1) is not completely understood,
but ...
Comparative skull analysis suggests species-specific captivity-related malformation in lions (Panthera leo)
(
Public Library of Science
, 2014 , Article)
Lion (Panthera leo) populations have dramatically decreased worldwide with a surviving population estimated at 32,000 across the African savannah. Lions have been kept in captivity for centuries and, although they reproduce ...
Examining the Extinction of the Barbary Lion and Its Implications for Felid Conservation
(
Public Library of Science
, 2013 , Article)
Estimations of species extinction dates are rarely definitive, yet declarations of extinction or extirpation are important as they define when conservation efforts may cease. Erroneous declarations of extinctions not only ...
Connecting the dots between PubMed abstracts
(
Public Library of Science
, 2012 , Article)
Background: There are now a multitude of articles published in a diversity of journals providing information about genes, proteins, pathways, and diseases. Each article investigates subsets of a biological process, but to ...
An estimation of erinaceidae phylogeny: A combined analysis approach
(
Public Library of Science
, 2012 , Article)
Background: Erinaceidae is a family of small mammals that include the spiny hedgehogs (Erinaceinae) and the silky-furred moonrats and gymnures (Galericinae). These animals are widely distributed across Eurasia and Africa, ...
Mitotic Arrest and Apoptosis in Breast Cancer Cells Induced by Origanum majorana Extract: Upregulation of TNF-α and Downregulation of Survivin and Mutant p53
(
Public Library of Science
, 2013 , Article)
Background: In the present study, we investigated the effect of Origanum majorana ethanolic extract on the survival of the highly proliferative and invasive triple-negative p53 mutant breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231. ...
Patulin and patulin producing Penicillium spp. occurrence in apples and apple-based products including baby food
(
The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries
, 2017 , Article)
Introduction: Patulin has raised the international attention because of its health risk. In fact, it has mutagenic, neurotoxic, immunotoxic, genotoxic and gastrointestinal effects in animals. In the present work, patulin ...
Anti-Metastatic and Anti-Tumor Growth Effects of Origanum majorana on Highly Metastatic Human Breast Cancer Cells: Inhibition of NFκB Signaling and Reduction of Nitric Oxide Production
(
Public Library of Science
, 2013 , Article)
Background: We have recently reported that Origanum majorana exhibits anticancer activity by promoting cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of the metastatic MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line. Here, we extended our study by ...
