NIF inhibits the ability of PMNs to produce inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species in response to C. albicans [PDF]

Microbiology Spectrum
Invasive fungal infections are associated with high mortality rates. The proliferation of C. albicans is mainly limited by the innate immune system, in which phagocytic cells, especially polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), play an important role ...

Functional Nitrogenase Cofactor Maturase NifB in Mitochondria and Chloroplasts of Nicotiana benthamiana

mBio, 2022
Engineering plants to synthesize nitrogenase and assimilate atmospheric N2 will reduce crop dependency on industrial N fertilizers. This technology can be achieved by expressing prokaryotic nitrogen fixation gene products for the assembly of a functional

Highly efficient UV/H2O2 technology for the removal of nifedipine antibiotics: Kinetics, co-existing anions and degradation pathways.

PLoS ONE, 2021
This study investigates the degradation of nifedipine (NIF) by using a novel and highly efficient ultraviolet light combined with hydrogen peroxide (UV/H2O2). The degradation rate and degradation kinetics of NIF first increased and then remained constant

Thermal decomposition and kinetic investigation of AP and AP based composite solid propellant in the presence of nickel ferrite additive

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2022
Nanosize nickel ferrite (NiF) with an average crystalline size of 28.6 nm has been successfully synthesized via the co-precipitation method. NiF was found to efficiently reduce the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP) and Composite solid ...

Nitrosonifedipine ameliorates the progression of type 2 diabetic nephropathy by exerting antioxidative effects. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the major cause of end-stage renal failure. Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of DN. Nitrosonifedipine (NO-NIF) is a weak calcium channel blocker that is converted from nifedipine under light exposure ...
