Quadratic multiple regression model and spectral relaxation approach for carreau nanofluid inclined magnetized dipole along stagnation point geometry.

Researchers across the world have tried to explore the impact of non-Newtonian liquid flowing via an extendable surface with the inclusion of various effects due to its industrial and engineering applications like polymer production, paper production, filament extrusion from a dye, etc. This study investigates the behavior of stagnation point flow of Carreau liquid attached with inclined magnetic effect and spectral relaxation approach is utilized here for the numerical outcome. In this study, a few other vital features are attached like the quadratic multiple regression model for Nusselt number evaluation, passive control of nanoparticles, viscus heating thermophoresis, Brownian motion, and mixed convection, etc.

MitoNEET (CISD1) Knockout Mice Show Signs of Striatal Mitochondrial Dysfunction and a Parkinson's Disease Phenotype.

Mitochondrial dysfunction is thought to play a significant role in neurodegeneration observed in Parkinson's disease (PD), yet the mechanisms underlying this pathology remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that loss of mitoNEET (CISD1), an iron-sulfur containing protein that regulates mitochondrial bioenergetics, results in mitochondrial dysfunction and loss of striatal dopamine and tyrosine hydroxylase. Mitochondria isolated from mice lacking mitoNEET were dysfunctional as revealed by elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reduced capacity to produce ATP.

Structure-activity and in vivo evaluation of a novel lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activator.

Elevated triglycerides (TG) contribute towards increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is an enzyme that is responsible for the metabolism of core triglycerides of very-low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and chylomicrons in the vasculature. In this study, we explored the structure-activity relationships of our lead compound (C10d) that we have previously identified as an LPL agonist.

Emerging strategies of targeting lipoprotein lipase for metabolic and cardiovascular diseases.

Although statins and other pharmacological approaches have improved the management of lipid abnormalities, there exists a need for newer treatment modalities especially for the management of hypertriglyceridemia. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL), by promoting hydrolytic cleavage of the triglyceride core of lipoproteins, is a crucial node in the management of plasma lipid levels. Although LPL expression and activity modulation is observed as a pleiotropic action of some the commonly used lipid lowering drugs, the deliberate development of drugs targeting LPL has not occurred yet.
