Hannan, Nicole

Results: No studies met the eligibility criteria for this review, underscoring the lack of clinical research on CM effectiveness for EGIDs. The international survey (n = 362) showed that CM product use is common among adults with EoE and appears largely driven by dissatisfaction with conventional care and limited treat...

Mechanistic insights into the roles of Prohibitin 1 (PHB1) in metabolic homeostasis within the liver and circulation

Alowaisi, Amany Ali Ahmad

Prohibitin-1 (PHB1) is an evolutionarily conserved protein from yeast to humans. It is involved in a broad spectrum of cellular functions, including proliferation, transcriptional control, signal transduction, and metabolic homeostasis. Aberrant expression or functional disruption of PHB1 have been associated with a va...

Material-Process-Structure-Property Relationships for Direct-Ink-Writing of Polymer Composite-type Precursors

Grover, Caitlin Ann

Polymer composite-type precursors hold exceptional promise in the manufacturing of polymers, ceramics, metals, and their composites stemming from their simplicity, processibility, and tunable rheological properties. These precursors cover a large compositional space with markedly varying rheology; thus, these precursor...

Sexual dimorphism in ligature-induced periodontitis is mediated by the miR-141/200c cluster

Upara, Chawin

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by destruction of the tooth-supporting tissues and is strongly influenced by host immune responses.
