Investigating senescence and senescence-escape in cancer cells (2022)
Thesis
Toth, F. (2022). Investigating senescence and senescence-escape in cancer cells. (Thesis). University of Salford

Despite the general concept that therapy-induced senescence (TIS) has a tumour-suppressive role, the presence of senescent tumour cells and the ability of cancer cells to escape from senescence could potentially lead to therapy resistance and tumour...

Identification and characterisation of lignin degrading bacteria and enzymes from larval guts of the African Palm Weevil (Rhynchophorus phoenicis) (2022)
Thesis
larval guts of the African Palm Weevil (Rhynchophorus phoenicis). (Thesis). University of Salford

As developing economies continue to grow, the world’s demand for energy which currently stands at 84MB (million barrels oil) per day is projected to rise to 116 MB per day by the year 2030. The need to meet this continuous rise in demand for energy w...

Evaluation of small extracellular vesicular microRNAs as biomarkers for exposure of nicotine and E-liquids on human lung cells (2022)
Thesis
for exposure of nicotine and E-liquids on human lung cells. (Thesis). University of Salford

Nicotine intake and E-Cigarette or vaping product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) can cause pulmonary disease with damaging health effects. In this study, we explored miRNAs from small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) for nicotine and E-liquid-associ...
