Sesaminol alters phospholipid metabolism and alleviates obesity-induced NAFLD.

The prevalence of obesity-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and insulin resistance is increasing worldwide. We previously demonstrated that sesaminol increases thermogenesis in adipocytes, improves insulin sensitivity, and mitigates obesity in mice. In this study, we demonstrated that sesaminol increased mitochondrial activity and reduced ROS production in hepatocytes.

Investigation of port intervention to coastal and nearshore dynamics: a GIS and AHP approach.

The goal of the study was attempted to understand the impact of selected ports on the coastal and nearshore dynamics. Dwelling activities along the coastal zone were particularly high in the last two decades. Hence, ports constructed between 2000 and 2022 such as Mundra, Hazira, Karaikal, Krishnapatnam, Gangavaram, and Gopalpur were considered for the study.

Determination of vulnerable zones along Brahmapur coast, Odisha using AHP and GIS with validation against multiple cyclones.

The Brahmapur is the southernmost sub-division of Ganjam district of the Odisha coast frequently prone to cyclones. This coastal stretch is one of the low-lying areas of Odisha with dense population. Recent severe cyclones such as Phailin and Titli crossed the considered coastal stretch in 2013 and 2018 respectively causing severe damages to life and property.
