Aqueous-only exfoliation of pristine graphite to graphene : towards sustainable, multifunctional polymer nanocomposites by Seyed Ismail Seyed Shahabadi

“…Water is the most desirable medium for LPE but graphene needs stabilization with surfactants or stabilizers because of the huge mismatch between the surface energies of water and graphene. There have been a myriad of synthetic surfactants and stabilizers studied for this purpose, but natural surfactants have seen less attention. …”

Investigating the role of astrocytes in Parkinson's disease pathogenesis in GBA- N370S iPSC-derived neural cultures by Ibarra Aizpurua, N

“…However, the research available indicates that other cells found in the midbrain, such as astrocytes, are also involved in the disease pathogenesis, although their role has not been fully elucidated yet. Moreover, it is still to be determined whether the neuroinflammation found in PD patients has a causative effect in disease onset or is in turn a consequence of neurodegeneration. …”

Landless in God’s own country: development and perpetual struggles in Kerala by Ramapurath Chemmencheri, S

“…Illustrating seven different sectors from which livelihood expulsions are underway in the lives of landless Adivasis in Kerala, the thesis argues that their position in the local growth trajectory can be understood as an “in-between” one, wherein their wage labour is becoming less and less relevant to the local growth path, although they remain embedded in capitalist relations. Meanwhile, they have been dissuaded from turning into labourers in constant migration by virtue of welfare provisions and political mobilisation. …”

Effect of detergent, herbs and spices on the growth of Vibrio parahaemolyticus biofilm in seafood by Nillian, Elexson

“…The prevalence of 9.14% (36/394) of positive toxR genes, 63.8% of positive isolates contained virulent genes of V. parahaemolyticus tdh+, 22.2% of V. parahaemolyticus trh+, and 5.56% (2/36) of positive isolates in both V. parahaemolyticus tdh+ and trh+ had been detected. The thirty six (n=36) isolates were further tested with antibiotic susceptibility test and they werefound to be resistant to at least seven out of eighteen antibiotics. …”

Mitofusins Mfn1 and Mfn2 are required to preserve glucose- but not incretin-stimulated β-cell connectivity and insulin secretion by Georgiadou, Eleni, Muralidharan, Charanya, Martinez, Michelle, Chabosseau, Pauline, Akalestou, Elina, Tomas, Alejandra, Yong, Fiona Su Wern, Stylianides, Theodoros, Wretlind, Asger, Legido-Quigley, Cristina, Jones, Ben, Lopez-Noriega, Livia, Xu, Yanwen, Gu, Guoqiang, Alsabeeh, Nour, Cruciani-Guglielmacci, Céline, Magnan, Christophe, Ibberson, Mark, Leclerc, Isabelle, Ali, Yusuf, Soleimanpour, Scott A., Linnemann, Amelia K., Rodriguez, Tristan A., Rutter, Guy A.

“…Whether mitofusin gene expression, and hence, mitochondrial network integrity, is important for glucose or incretin signaling has not previously been explored. Here, we generated mice with β-cell-selective, adult-restricted deletion knock-out (dKO) of the mitofusin genes Mfn1 and Mfn2 (βMfn1/2 dKO). βMfn1/2-dKO mice displayed elevated fed and fasted glycemia and a more than fivefold decrease in plasma insulin. …”
