Comparative Assessment of Toxic Metals Bioaccumulation and the Mechanisms of Chromium (Cr) Tolerance and Uptake in Calotropis procera
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2020 , Article)Progressive pollution due to toxic metals significantly undermines global environmental sustainability efforts. Chromium (Cr) is one of the most dangerous to human health. The use of plants to rid the environment of such ... -
Coral reef monitoring, reef assessment technologies, and ecosystem-based management
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2019 , Article)Coral reefs are exceptionally biodiverse and human dependence on their ecosystem services is high. Reefs experience significant direct and indirect anthropogenic pressures, and provide a sensitive indicator of coastal ocean ... -
Haematococcus pluvialis Microalgae Extract Inhibits Proliferation, Invasion, and Induces Apoptosis in Breast Cancer Cells
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2022 , Article)Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignant cancer in females worldwide. Drug resistance, toxicity, and the failure of current therapies to completely cure BC has challenged conventional medicine. Consequently, ... -
Isolation and Identification of Organics-Degrading Bacteria From Gas-to-Liquid Process Water
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2021 , Article)The gas-to-liquid (GTL) process generates considerable amounts of wastewater that are highly acidic and characterized by its high chemical oxygen demand (COD) content, due to the presence of several organic pollutants, ... -
Molecular Insights Into SARS COV-2 Interaction With Cardiovascular Disease: Role of RAAS and MAPK Signaling
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2020 , Article)In December 2019, reports of viral pneumonia came out of Wuhan city in Hubei province in China. In early 2020, the causative agent was identified as a novel coronavirus (CoV) sharing some sequence similarity with SARS-CoV ... -
PCF11, a Novel CD44-Downstream Transcriptional Target, Linking Its 3'-End Polyadenylation Function to Tumor Cell Metastasis
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2022 , Article Review)Breast Cancer (BC) is the most common and the major health issue in women worldwide. Metastasis, a multistep process, is the worst aspect of cancer and tumor cell invasion is the defining step. Tumor cell invasion requires ... -
