Brief Report: Polymorphisms in TNF-α/TNFR1 Pathway Genes Are Associated With CD4+ T-Cell Recovery in HIV-1–Infected Individuals on Antiretroviral Therapy
(
NLM (Medline)
, 2021 , Article)
Background:
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is an important hallmark of HIV-1 treatment, enabling viral load suppression to undetectable levels and CD4+ T-cell recovery. However, some individuals do not recover the CD4+ ...
Cadmium: An Emerging Role in Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article Review)
Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal that is widespread in the environment due to the substantial anthropogenic inputs from the agriculture and industrial sectors. The toxic impact of Cd adversely affects human health and ...

, 2021 , Article Review)
COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be a dramatic challenge, introducing huge clinical differences that demand extensive investigations. Severe and critical patients may present coagulopathies and microthrombi, which results ...
Adsorption and recovery of lithium ions from groundwater using date pits impregnated with cellulose nanocrystals and ionic liquid
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The study aims to prepare a novel low-cost and environmentally friendly adsorbent by using date pits (DP) impregnated with cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and ionic liquid (IL), named IL-CNC@DP. The batch adsorption of lithium ...
Novel insights into the nanoadsorption mechanisms of crystal violet using nano-hazelnut shell from aqueous solution
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This paper discusses the nanoadsorption mechanisms of crystal violet (CV) using a nano-hazelnut shell (nano-HS) from an aqueous solution. The effect of various factors such as pH, temperature, and initial CV concentration ...
Novel composite materials of modified roasted date pits using ferrocyanides for the recovery of lithium ions from seawater reverse osmosis brine
(
Nature Research
, 2021 , Article)
In this paper, novel composite materials from modified roasted date pits using ferrocyanides were developed and investigated for the recovery of lithium ions (Li+) from seawater reverse osmosis (RO) brine. Two composite ...
SOD2, a Potential Transcriptional Target Underpinning CD44-Promoted Breast Cancer Progression
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article Review)
CD44, a cell-adhesion molecule has a dual role in tumor growth and progression; it acts as a tumor suppressor as well as a tumor promoter. In our previous work, we developed a tetracycline-off regulated expression of CD44’s ...
