Spore exines increase vitamin D clinical bioavailability by mucoadhesion and bile triggered release (2022)
Journal Article
Diego-Taboada, A., Sathyapalan, T., Courts, F., Lorch, M., Almutairi, F., Burke, B. P., …Mackenzie, G. (2022). Spore exines increase vitamin D clinical bioavailability by mucoadhesion and bile triggered release. Journal of controlled release : official journal of the Controlled Release Society, 350, 244-255. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jconrel.2022.08.017

Sporopollenin exine capsules (SpECs) are microcapsules derived from the outer shells (exines) of plant spore and pollen grains. This work reports the first clinical study on healthy volunteers to show enhanced bioavailability of vitamin D encapsulate...

New players and new interactions within the natriuretic peptide system : mechanisms and pathophysiological consequences (2012)
Thesis
Zhu, X. (2012). New players and new interactions within the natriuretic peptide system : mechanisms and pathophysiological consequences. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4218846

The natriuretic peptide system plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cardiorenal homeostasis as well as in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. In this thesis, the biological effects of the newly designed natriuretic peptide (NP) ACNP and...

Identification of a female sex pheromone in Carcinus maenas (2011)
Journal Article
Hardege, J. D., Bartels-Hardege, H. D., Fletcher, N., Terschak, J. A., Harley, M., Smith, M. A., …Bublitz, R. (2011). Identification of a female sex pheromone in Carcinus maenas. Marine ecology progress series, 436, 177-189. https://doi.org/10.3354/meps09226

Despite major progress in our understanding of animal signaling systems, the identification of chemical signals in aquatic organisms is still in its infancy. Exemplary for this is the lack of structural knowledge of crustacean sex pheromones despite... Read More about Identification of a female sex pheromone in Carcinus maenas.

Biomedical ultrasonics, cavitation, and sonoporation (2011)
Thesis
Kotopoulis, S. (2011). Biomedical ultrasonics, cavitation, and sonoporation. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4211486

This thesis treats biomedical ultrasonics, cavitation and sonoporation. Focussed ultrasound surgery can heat tissue to a temperature that causes protein denaturation and coagulative necrosis. For high-resolution focused ultrasound microsurgery, high... Read More about Biomedical ultrasonics, cavitation, and sonoporation.
