Modulating ADAM-10 activity and expression in cervical and oesophageal cancer cells by Wagiet, Mateen

“…An increase in epithelial cell markers (E-Cadherin, B-Catenin) and a decrease in mesenchymal marker expression (Vimentin) post treatment with the compounds tested strongly suggested that ADAM10 plays a role in mesenchymal cell transition. …”

Porous metal-organic frameworks for sorption of volatile organic compounds by Ndamyabera, Christophe Adrien

“…Using 34pba as a single ligand and Cu2+ as the metal ion led to the formation of a 2D [(Cu(34pba)2]·DMF) (4) while a little variation of solvent mixture resulted in a 3D {[CuCl2(34pba)2]∙solvent}n (7) structures. The functionalized ligands 44paba and 34paba (34paba = 3-(pyridyn-4-ylmethyl)aminobenzoate, 44paba = 4-(pyridyn-4- ylmethyl)aminobenzoate) were used with Cu2+ centre to prepare [Cu(44paba)·(H2O)·(DMF)]n (5) and {[Cu3(34paba)5(H2O)2]·(DMF)2}n (6), both of which are 1D structures. …”

Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane with carbon dioxide over iron-nickel nano-alloys supported on metal oxide overlayers by Raseale, Shaine

“…Promoters such as Fe-based oxides have been studied to enhance the CO2-activation functionality and stability of the oxides [5]. A Density Functional Theory (DFT) study suggested that bimetallic alloys can have superior activity for CO2-activation compared to their monometallic counterparts [16]. …”

The development of group VIII trinuclear transition metal complexes as chemotherapeutic and photodynamic therapy agents by Welsh, Athi

“…A series of trimetallic 2-ferrocenylbenzimidazole complexes, along with their respective mononuclear congeners, were prepared. The 5-position of the benzimidazole scaffold was substituted with varying hydrophobic electron-withdrawing or -donating functionalities, to offer insight into the effect of these substituents on the overall biological activity. …”
