Insulinotropic activity of Tinospora crispa extract: effect on β-cell Ca2+ handling by Noor, Hamdan, Ashcroft, Stephen J. H.

“…The mechanism of insulinotropic action of Tinospora crispa was investigated in vitro using an insulin-secreting clonal β-cell line, HIT-T15. The aqueous extract sensitizes the β-cell to extracellular Ca2+ and promotes intracellular Ca2+ accumulation which in turn causes increased insulin release. …”

Role of Interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) in replication fork progression and PARP inhibitor resistance in cancer by Seung, Y

“…Our research revealed that ISG15 can interact with Topoisomerase I (TOP1) and Dead-box helicase 5 (DDX5), and the interaction was explicitly enriched in BRCA1-deficient PARP inhibitor-resistant cells. …”

Multimodal radar with wide band communication system by Danial Ritzuan Junaidi

“…In principle, Wall Penetration Radars must use low frequencies that range from Ultra High Frequency (UHF) to S-band so as to maximise the wall electromagnetic transmission [5]. Depending on how long the radar is set to scan and record the area for targets, the size of the raw data collected could be rather large. …”

Hyperbolic volume estimates via train tracks by De Capua, A

“…However, we can apply their line of proof only after some manipulation of the splitting sequence: a rearrangement, changing the order the elementary moves are performed in, so that the ones producing Dehn twists are brought together; and then an untwisting, which suppresses the majority of these latter moves to give a new sequence, which does not end with the same track as before, but does not include any portion that is almost stationary in the pants graph. …”

Rhetorical contestation and the mediterranean migration crisis, 2013-2018 by He, Wendy Qingli

“…I seek to shed new light on this policy outcome by exploring the dynamics of rhetorical contestation taking place in the context of the Mediterranean migration crisis over the course of five years (2013 to 2018). Specifically, I analyse the criticisms which were directed at the EU by a non-governmental organisation, Amnesty International (AI) and its use of ‘naming and shaming’ against the EU and Italy, a key frontline member state embroiled in the crisis. …”
