Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) inflammation contributes to metabolic dysregulation in obesity. VAT recruitment and activation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) through toll‐like receptor 9 (TLR9) recognition of self‐DNA, leading to induction of type I interferons, are crucial innate triggers for this VAT inflammation. It was hypothesized that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can contribute...
Increasing plasma levels and activity of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4 or CD26) are associated with rapid progression of metabolic syndrome to overt type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). While DPP4 inhibitors are increasingly used as anti-hyperglycemic agents, the reason for the increase in plasma DPP4 activity in T2DM patients remains elusive.We looked into the source of plasma DPP4 activity in a cohort...
With the expansion of digital world, the scope of copyright has started facing a great threat. Thus, there is a need to protect the original work from being copied or distributed illegally. Image watermarking plays a very important role in solving this issue. Image watermarking is the procedure to embed a particular piece of information (watermark) in an image such that it is not distorted. Thus on...
Solar concentrators are extensively tested as an alternative for conventional thermal sources. Scheffler concentrators is proving to be very effective in medium temperature applications as it has advantage of easy manufacturing and tracking. Though manufacturing is easy, it is complex to design for any required area of the reflector. The work here is an attempt to make the design process simpler....
In this study, we investigated the performance of honeycomb structured PVC used as packing material inside humidifier in Humidification-Dehumidification Desalination Plant. The affecting operational parameter like mass flow rate of water and air on the performance parameters of humidifier such as range, effectiveness, efficiency, water evaporation rate, heat and mass transfer rate are studied. The...
