Susceptibility of Nrf2-null mice to steatohepatitis and cirrhosis upon consumption of a high-fat diet is associated with oxidative stress, perturbation of the unfolded protein response, and disturbance in the expression of metabolic enzymes, but not with insulin resistance [PDF]

, 2014
Mice lacking transcription factor NF-E2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) develop more severe non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), with cirrhosis, than wild-type (Nrf2(+/+)) mice when fed a high-fat (HF) diet for 24 weeks.

Response Reduction Factor for Mansory Buildings

Nepal Journal of Science and Technology, 2020
Most of the seismic codes used today incorporate the nonlinear response of a structure by providing an appropriate response reduction factor so that a linear elastic force-based approach can be used in designs. This study focuses on evaluating the response reduction factor for masonry buildings with different mechanical properties, which are used in ...

Shake table investigations on code non-compliant reinforced concrete frames

Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2020
Shake-table tests were performed on a code conforming and four non-compliant 1:3 reduced scale two-story RC frames. The models were subjected to 1994 Northridge earthquake acceleration time history, linearly scaled to multiple levels for studying the ...

The binding of NCAM to FGFR1 induces a specific cellular response mediated by receptor trafficking [PDF]

, 2009
Neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) associates with fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptor-1 (FGFR1). However, the biological significance of this interaction remains largely elusive.
