ATP13A2 is involved in intracellular polyamine transport in lung epithelial cells
Spermidine transport in lung epithelial cells involves the polyamine transporter ATP13A2. Cell proliferation is associated with the upregulation of ATP13A2. Polyamines are present in all living cells and are implicated in various crucial cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy.

Biological effects of cigarette smoke in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells. [PDF]
The goal of the present study was to determine whether treatment with cigarette smoke extract (CSE) induces cell loss, cellular senescence, and extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis in primary human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Primary cultured

Use of the TIPS Technique as a Possible Method of Acute Inhalation Toxicity Assessment
ABSTRACT Acute inhalation toxicity studies provide crucial information regarding short‐term exposure to volatile chemicals and help to ensure the safe handling and use of these chemicals. However, acute inhalation toxicity assessment requires specialized equipment, and most animal facilities are not able to carry out such studies.

Continuous production of glycerol by catalytic high pressure hydrogenolysis of sucrose [PDF]
Several continuous reactor systems have been discussed for the catalytic high pressure hydrogenolysis of sucrose to glycerol. Theoretically and actually, continuous reactors lead to lower glycerol yields than in a batch process.

Gas-phase dehydration of glycerol over thermally-stable SAPO-40 catalyst [PDF]
SAPO-40 was used as catalyst for the gas-phase dehydration of glycerol towards acrolein. At 350 ºC the catalyst attained full conversion of glycerol with a negligible deactivation in the first 48 h, a glycerol conversion above 50 % after 120 h on ...
