Coupling of chemical and biological processes in 17alfa-ethinylestradiol removal from aqueous solutions: a critical evaluation of adsorption and catalysis contribution (2019)
Journal Article
Russo, G., Grumetto, L., Mita, D. G., Rossi, S., Guida, M., Di Marco Pisciottano, I., & Gallo, P. (2019). Coupling of chemical and biological processes in 17alfa-ethinylestradiol removal from aqueous solutions: a critical evaluation of adsorption and catalysis contribution. Desalination and Water Treatment, 170, 158-167. https://doi.org/10.5004/dwt.2019.24651

The removal of 17alfa-ethinylestradiol (EE2) from synthetic aqueous solutions under adsorption process and enzyme catalysis mediated by immobilized laccase from Trametes versicolor was studied. Both processes were carried...

Dyslipidaemia and altered hepatic function in males - consequences of androgen excess in fetal life (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Siemienowicz, K., Filis, P., Shaw, S., Douglas, A., Thomas, J., Howie, F., Fowler, P., Duncan, C., & Rae, M. (2019, May). Dyslipidaemia and altered hepatic function in males - consequences of androgen excess in fetal life. Presented at 21st European Congress of Endocrinology, Lyon, France

Introduction: Adult male offspring of women with PCOS have increased dyslipidaemia, characterised by elevated triglycerides (TG), increased total and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C), and hyperinsulinaemia. As altered intrauterine endocrine environments can ‘... Read More about Dyslipidaemia and altered hepatic function in males - consequences of androgen excess in fetal life.

Fetal androgen exposure is a determinant of adult male metabolic health (2019)
Journal Article
Siemienowicz, K. J., Filis, P., Shaw, S., Douglas, A., Thomas, J., Mulroy, S., Howie, F., Fowler, P. A., Duncan, W. C., & Rae, M. T. (2019). Fetal androgen exposure is a determinant of adult male metabolic health. Scientific Reports, 9, Article 20195 (2019). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-56790-4

Androgen signalling is a critical driver of male development. Fetal steroid signalling can be dysregulated by a range of environmental insults and clinical conditions. We hypothesised that poor adult male health was partially attributable to aberrant... Read More about Fetal androgen exposure is a determinant of adult male metabolic health.

Influence of family hosting on refugee integration and its implication on social work practice: the French case (2019)
Journal Article
Ran, G. J., & Join-Lambert, H. (2020). Influence of family hosting on refugee integration and its implication on social work practice: the French case. European Journal of Social Work, 23(3), 461-474. https://doi.org/10.1080/13691457.2019.1706450

In addition to existing institutional barriers in European societies, refugee settlement and integration also faces numerous social challenges, such as discrimination and stigmatisation towards refugee groups. Family hosting is a bold refugee accommo... Read More about Influence of family hosting on refugee integration and its implication on social work practice: the French case.

PDE6D Inhibitors with a New Design Principle Selectively Block K-Ras Activity (2019)
Journal Article
Siddiqui, F. A., Alam, C., Ora, M., Sabt, A., Manoharan, G. B., Bindu, L., Okutachi, S., Catillon, M., Taylor, T., Abdelhafez, O. M., Lönnberg, H., Stephen, A. G., Papageorgiou, A. C., Virta, P., & Abankwa, D. (2020). PDE6D Inhibitors with a New Design Principle Selectively Block K-Ras Activity. ACS Omega, 5(1), 832-842. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsomega.9b03639

The trafficking chaperone PDE6D (also referred to as PDEδ) has been nominated as a surrogate target for K-Ras4B (hereafter K-Ras). Arl2-assisted unloading of K-Ras from PDE6D in the perinuclear area is significant for correct K-Ras localization and t...

Intracellular Pharmacodynamic Modeling Is Predictive of the Clinical Activity of Fluoroquinolones against Tuberculosis (2019)
Journal Article
Donnellan, S., Aljayyoussi, G., Moyo, E., Ardrey, A., Martinez-Rodriguez, C., Ward, S. A., & Biagini, G. A. (2020). Intracellular Pharmacodynamic Modeling Is Predictive of the Clinical Activity of Fluoroquinolones against Tuberculosis. Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 64(1), https://doi.org/10.1128/aac.00989-19

Clinical studies of new antitubercular drugs are costly and time-consuming. Owing to the extensive tuberculosis (TB) treatment periods, the ability to identify drug candidates based on their predicted clinical efficacy is vital to accelerate the pipe...
