Effects of a physical activity programme to prevent physical performance decline in onco-geriatric patients: a randomized multicentre trial
(Wiley, 2019-04)
Background Older adults with cancer experience negative long-term functional effects of both cancer and treatments. Exercise may minimize their age-related and cancer-related functional decline. Methods We conducted a ...
Association of Birth Order with Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors in Young Adulthood: A Study of One Million Swedish Men
(Public Library of Science, 2013-05-16)
Background: Birth order has been suggested to be linked to several cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, but the evidence is still inconsistent. We aim to determine the associations of birth order with body mass index ...
Added Sugars and Low- and No-Calorie Sweeteners in a Representative Sample of Food Products Consumed by the Spanish ANIBES Study Population
(MDPI, 2018-09-07)
Low- and no-calorie sweeteners (LNCS), intensely sweet compounds that virtually contain no calories, are used to replace added sugars in food and drinks. Knowledge about different LNCS data in Spanish foods and added sugar ...
Application of Bioactive Thermal Proteome Profiling to Decipher the Mechanism of Action of the Lipid Lowering 13(2)-Hydroxy-pheophytin Isolated from a Marine Cyanobacteria
(MDPI, 2019-06-21)
The acceleration of the process of understanding the pharmacological application of new marine bioactive compounds requires identifying the compound protein targets leading the molecular mechanisms in a living cell. The ...
Current Food Consumption amongst the Spanish ANIBES Study Population
(MDPI, 2019-11)
Dietary habits amongst the Spanish population are currently a relevant cause for concern, as macronutrient profiles and micronutrient intakes seem to be inadequate and globally moving away from the traditional Mediterranean ...
Membrane-Bound sn-1,2-Diacylglycerols Explain the Dissociation of Hepatic Insulin Resistance from Hepatic Steatosis in MTTP Knockout Mice
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2020-12)
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTTP) deficiency results in a syndrome of hypolipidemia and accelerated NAFLD. Animal models of decreased hepatic MTTP activity have revealed an unexplained dissociation between ...
Early response to nanoparticles in the Arabidopsis transcriptome compromises plant defence and root-hair development through salicylic acid signalling
(Biomed Central, 2015-04-24)
Background: The impact of nano-scaled materials on photosynthetic organisms needs to be evaluated. Plants represent the largest interface between the environment and biosphere, so understanding how nanoparticles affect ...
The Oxidative State of Chylomicron Remnants Influences Their Modulation of Human Monocyte Activation
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)
Chylomicron remnants (CMRs) contribute directly to human monocyte activation in vitro, by increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and cell migration. In this study, the effects of the oxidative state of CMR on ...
Wide Screening of Phage-Displayed Libraries Identifies Immune Targets in Planta
(PLoS ONE, 2013)
Microbe-Associated Molecular Patterns and virulence effectors are recognized by plants as a first step to mount a defence response against potential pathogens. This recognition involves a large family of extracellular ...
Physiological modules for generating discrete and rhythmic movements: action identification by a dynamic recurrent neural network
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-09-17)
In this study we employed a dynamic recurrent neural network (DRNN) in a novel fashion to reveal characteristics of control modules underlying the generation of muscle activations when drawing figures with the outstretched ...
