Expression of Adenosine A2B Receptor and Adenosine Deaminase in Rabbit Gastric Mucosa ECL Cells
(MDPI, 2017-04)
Adenosine is readily available to the glandular epithelium of the stomach. Formed continuously in intracellular and extracellular locations, it is notably produced from ATP released in enteric cotransmission. Adenosine ...
U-Shaped and Surface Functionalized Polymer Optical Fiber Probe for Glucose Detection
(MDPI, 2017-01)
In this work we show an optical fiber evanescent wave absorption probe for glucose detection in different physiological media. High selectivity is achieved by functionalizing the surface of an only-core poly(methyl ...
Adenosine: direct and indirect actions on gastric acid secretion
(Frontiers Media, 2017-09-22)
Composed by a molecule of adenine and a molecule of ribose, adenosine is a paradigm of recyclable nucleoside with a multiplicity of functions that occupies a privileged position in the metabolic and regulatory contexts. ...
Influence Of Oxygen Partial Pressure On The Characteristics Of Human Hepatocarcinoma Cells
(Elsevier Science BV, 2017-08)
Most of the in vitro studies using liver cell lines have been performed under atmospheric oxygen partial pressure (21% O-2). However, the oxygen concentrations in the liver and cancer cells are far from this value. In the ...
Predictors of peripheral arterial disease in SLE change with patient’s age
(BMJ Journals, 2017)
OBJECTIVE: To analyse the differential influence of risk factors of peripheral artery disease (PAD) according to age in patients with SLE.
METHODS: 216 patients from the Lupus-Cruces cohort were divided in three age ...
Effectiveness of a multicomponent exercise program in the attenuation of frailty in long-term nursing home residents: study protocol for a randomized clinical controlled trial
(Biomed Central, 2017-02-23)
Background: There is increasing evidence suggesting that cognition and physical frailty interact within a cycle of decline associated with aging which has been called cognitive frailty. Exercise programs have demonstrated ...
Perceived discrimination and self-rated health in the immigrant population of the Basque Country, Spain
(Elsevier, 2017-09)
Objective: To examine the effect of perceived discrimination and self-rated health among the immigrant population in the Basque Country, Spain, and determine whether this effect varies according to region of origin, age, ...
The role of birthplace and educational attainment on induced abortion inequalities
(Biomed Central, 2017-01-13)
Background: Induced abortion (IA) has shown social inequality related to birthplace and education with higher rates of IAs in immigrant and in less educated women relative to their native and highly educated counterparts. ...
Enantioselective Ring-Opening Polymerization of rac-Lactide Dictated by Densely Substituted Aminoacids
(ACS, 2017-03-08)
Organocatalysis is becoming an important tool in
polymer science because of its versatility and specificity. To date
a limited number of organic catalysts have demonstrated the
ability to promote stereocontrolled ...
Health-related quality of life, handgrip strength and falls during detraining in elderly habitual exercisers
(Biomed Central, 2017-11-21)
Background: The effects of regular exercise on physical functioning and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) have been thoroughly studied. In contrast, little is known about the changes which occur following cessation ...
