Immunological markers of protective immune reconstitution in HIV infected persons sensitised by Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Jhilmeet, Nishtha

“…This thesis focuses on characterising Mtb-specific reconstituting CD4 T cells as well as soluble and transcriptomic markers in HIV infected persons, sensitised by Mtb, by analysing samples collected longitudinally during 6 months of ART. …”

Characterizing the cellular latent reservoir of HIV-1 and the effect of immune activation on characteristics of the reservoir by Ismail, Sherazaan Dineo

“…We found that, in addition to viral load and CD4+ T-cell count, CD8+ T-cell activation within the year preceding ART, nadir CD4+ T-cell count, and baseline as well as on-treatment CD4:CD8 ratio at the time of sizing was associated with replication-competent reservoir size. …”

Thermo and drought tolerance markers and regulation of heat stress proteins for chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.; Fabaceae) production in NE South Africa by Makonya, Givemore Munashe

“…Double drought stress resulted in priming effect in Acc#7, having higher biomass, chlorophyll fluorescence, stomatal conductance, net photosynthesis, and relative water content in comparison to the introduction of stress only at flowering growth stage, as well as in comparison to Acc#8. These results showed that both Acc#7 and Acc#8 are sensitive to drought whereas after priming Acc#7 is better acclimated to drought than Acc#8 associated with osmotic adjustment on leaf relative water content (RWC) and higher capacity to protect photosynthetic activity, making Acc#7 potentially ideal for areas associated with intermittent drought spells. …”
