Al Hadeethi, Sadaf (8/30/2022)
INTERACTION OF ARTIFICIAL-INTRINSICALLY DISORDERED PROTEIN POLYMERS WITH ENZYME-LOADED GIANT UNILAMELLAR VESICLES

Alam, Ramy (2024-01-29)

Membrane-less organelles (MLOs) are dynamic sub-cellular compartments that form primarily via the liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs). IDPs are necessary for the reconstitution ...
Mechanisms in the Acceleration of the Regression of Liver Injury in Chronic Liver Fibrosis in Mice

Imad, Noor (5/18/2022)

Background: Sustained chronic liver injury originating from several factors including viral infection, alcohol consumption, and hepatitis may lead to hepatic fibrosis characterized by an imbalance between extracellular ...
NOVEL APPROACH FOR EX-VIVO EXPANSION OF HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELLS USING DECELLULARIZED HUMAN UMBILICAL CORD EXTRACTS

Tamzarian, Wilson Kevork (2023-09-07)

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (HSCT) represent so far, the only efficient reconstructive tool for damaged bone marrow (BM) in hematological disorders. The success of these regenerative strategies relies on the ...

Ayache, Zeinab (9/7/2022)

Abstract Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most aggressive forms of malignant brain tumors. Despite the available therapies, the median survival rate of GBM patients does not exceed two years. Tumor ...
Therapeutic Opportunities in Targeting the Pentose Phosphate Pathway in Colorectal Cancer

Ghanem, Noorhan (9/22/2020)

Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common neoplasia and the second cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Unlike normal cells, tumor cells deregulate their metabolism and rely on aerobic glycolysis ...
Therapeutic Targeting of the Pentose Phosphate Pathway in Colorectal Cancer Cells Using Mannose

Araji, Khaled Mohamad (9/15/2021)

Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) remains the first-line treatment for CRC although its ...
