Nanotubes Impregnated Human Olfactory Bulb Neural Stem Cells Promote Neuronal Differentiation in Trimethyltin-induced Neurodegeneration Rat Model
( Wiley , 2017 , Article)Neural stem cells (NSCs) are multipotent self-renewing cells that could be used in cellular-based therapy for a wide variety of neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's diseases (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), ... -
Qatar genome: Insights on genomics from the Middle East
( Wiley , 2022 , Article)Despite recent biomedical breakthroughs and large genomic studies growing momentum, the Middle Eastern population, home to over 400 million people, is underrepresented in the human genome variation databases. Here we ... -
The Role of Cardiac Myosin Binding Protein C3 in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy- Progress and Novel Therapeutic Opportunities
( Wiley , 2016 , Article)Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common autosomal dominant genetic cardiovascular disorder marked by genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. Mutations in the gene encodes the cardiac myosin-binding protein C, cMYBPC3 ... -
SARS-CoV-2 infection triggers more potent antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) responses than mRNA-, vector-, and inactivated virus-based COVID-19 vaccines
( Wiley , 2024 , Article)Neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) are elicited after infection and vaccination and have been well studied. However, their antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) functionality is still poorly characterized. Here, we ... -
Seroprevalence of hepatitis E virus among blood donors in Qatar (2013-2016)
( Wiley , 2017 , Article)BACKGROUND Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an RNA virus transmitted mainly through zoonotic transmission or fecal–oral route. More than 80% of Qatar's population are expatriates, including many coming from hyperendemic ... -
Specific gene patterns and molecular pathways related to human carcinogenesis in different populations among various geographic locations.
( Wiley , 2016 , Other)We read with great interest the article by Beg et al,1 which was recently published in Cancer. Colorectal cancers (CRCs) are the most commonly diagnosed malignancies, accounting for approximately 1.36 million new cases ... -
Synthesis and Optimization of a Highly Stable and Efficient BN/TiO2 Nanocomposite for Phenol Degradation: A Photocatalytic, Mechanistic and Environmental Impact Study
( Wiley , 2021 , Article)Different BN/TiO2 nanocomposites were prepared hydrothermally, and their ratio was optimized to get the best photocatalytic performance towards phenol degradation. They were characterized by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ... -
Titanium Nanorods Loaded PCL Meshes with Enhanced Blood Vessel Formation and Cell Migration for Wound Dressing Applications.
( Wiley , 2019 , Article)Proper management of nonhealing wounds is an imperative clinical challenge. For the effective healing of chronic wounds, suitable wound coverage materials with the capability to accelerate cell migration, cell proliferation, ... -
Ultrasound controlled paclitaxel releasing system—A novel method for improving the availability of coronary artery drug coated balloon
( Wiley , 2020 , Article)Objectives: The aim of this study is to improve local-drug delivery efficiency and tissue absorption using the ultrasound (US)-responsible drug coating based on a newly developed US-controlled paclitaxel release balloon. ... -
Visfatin : An emerging adipocytokine bridging the gap in the evolution of cardiovascular diseases
( Wiley , 2021 , Article)Visfatin/nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) is an adipokine expressed predominately in visceral fat tissues. High circulating levels of visfatin/NAMPT have been implicated in vascular remodeling, vascular ... -
Whole genome sequencing of marine organisms by Oxford Nanopore Technologies: Assessment and optimization of HMW-DNA extraction protocols
( Wiley , 2021 , Article)Marine habitats are Earth's largest aquatic ecosystems, yet little is known about marine organism's genomes. Molecular studies can unravel their genetics print, thus shedding light on specie's adaptation and speciation ... -
Zebrafish larvae as a model to demonstrate secondary iron overload.
( Wiley , 2018 , Article)Thalassemia is the most common genetically inherited blood disorder arising from a defect in hemoglobin production, resulting in ineffective erythropoiesis and severe hemolytic anemia. While transfusion therapy corrects ...
