Hydrothermal liquefaction of sewage sludge; energy considerations and fate of micropollutants during pilot scale processing [PDF]

open access: yesWater Research 183 (2020) 116101, 2021
The beneficial use of sewage sludge for valorization of carbon and nutrients is of increasing interest while micropollutants in sludge are of concern to the environment and human health. This study investigates the hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of sewage sludge in a continuous flow pilot scale reactor at conditions expected to reflect future ...

Accurate Evaluation on the Interactions of SARS-CoV-2 with Its Receptor ACE2 and Antibodies CR3022/CB6 [PDF]

open access: yesCHIN.PHYS.LETT. Vol.38, No.1(2021)018701 Express Letter, 2021
The spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has become a global health crisis. The binding affinity of SARS-CoV-2 (in particular the receptor binding domain, RBD) to its receptor angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and the antibodies is of great importance in ...

G protein coupled receptors of the renin-angiotensin system: new targets against breast cancer?

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute the largest family of membrane receptors, with high potential for drug discovery. These receptors can be activated by a panel of different ligands including ions, hormones, small molecules and vasoactive ...

Angiotensin II receptor signalling [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, 2007
Angiotensin II plays a key role in the regulation of body fluid homeostasis. To correct body fluid deficits that occur during hypovolaemia, an animal needs to ingest both water and electrolytes. Thus, it is not surprising that angiotensin II, which is synthesized in response to hypovolaemia, acts centrally to increase both water and NaCl intake.

Current status of liver transplantation for non‐B non‐C liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 42-52, January 2023., 2023
Recently, the cases of LT for non‐B non‐C cirrhosis and HCC have been increasing in Japan as well as worldwide. Perioperative management of non‐B non‐C liver disease is problematic due to various risk factors, including alcohol consumption and metabolic syndrome‐related risks, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus.

Actions of Novel Angiotensin Receptor Blocking Drugs, Bisartans, Relevant for COVID-19 Therapy: Biased Agonism at Angiotensin Receptors and the Beneficial Effects of Neprilysin in the Renin Angiotensin System

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) used in the treatment of hypertension and potentially in SARS-CoV-2 infection exhibit inverse agonist effects at angiotensin AR1 receptors, suggesting the receptor may have evolved to accommodate naturally occurring ...

In-Silico evidence for two receptors based strategy of SARS-CoV-2 [PDF]

open access: yesFront. Mol. Biosci., 09 June 2021, 2020
We propose a novel numerical method able to determine efficiently and effectively the relationship of complementarity between portions of proteins surfaces. This innovative and general procedure, based on the representation of the molecular iso-electron density surface in terms of 2D Zernike polynomials, allows the rapid and quantitative assessment of ...
