While the international community spends enormous amounts of money engaging in peacebuilding efforts, scholars are increasing questioning what effect this actually has on the development of peace. Despite extensive economic contributions to post-conflict societies with the hope of ensuring peace, little development on the ground has been recorded. This raises a question of why provision of economi
Pupil dilation is a reliable measure of cognitive load, and many studies have shown this effect in relation to various memory tasks. Interference from irrelevant memory traces encoded in the past lead to difficulty retrieving recent, sought after memory traces, and increased cognitive load. This investigation showed a significant decline in performance during buildup of interference and a signific

We previously showed that quinacrine (QC), a small molecule antimalarial agent, also presented anticancer activity in breast cancer cells through activation of p53, p21, and inhibition of topoisomerase activity. Here we have systematically studied the detailed cell death mechanism of this drug using three colon cancer cell lines (HCT-116 parental, isogenic HCT-116 p53-/-, and HCT-116 p21-/- sublin
Addressing intertwined crises of climate change and biodiversity loss is a pressing global challenge, with trees playing pivotal roles in promoting carbon sequestration and habitat diversity. However, there is a distinct knowledge gap concerning the global drivers shaping tree cover and its heterogeneity, particularly the roles and relative importance of large herbivores and fire compared to clima
In earlier studies it was revealed that thylakoid membranes inhibit activity of pancreatic lipase/colipase. More studies have shown that these membranes induce satiety hormone CCK and reduce hunger hormone of rats and human. Appethyl® used in this project is processed from spinach leaves in such a way that it reserves most amounts of thylakoid membranes. The results, in this project, shows that Ap
