Membrane Permeabilization by Pore-Forming RTX Toxins: What Kind of Lesions Do These Toxins Form?
(MDPI, 2019-06-18)
Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) form nanoscale pores across target membranes causing cell death. The pore-forming cytolysins of the RTX (repeats in toxin) family belong to a steadily increasing family of proteins characterized ...
Serotonin 5-HT2A receptor expression and functionality in postmortem frontal cortex of subjects with schizophrenia: Selective biased agonism via Gαi1-proteins
(Elsevier, 2019-12)
Serotonin 5-HT2A receptors (5-HT(2A)Rs) have been implicated in schizophrenia. However, postmortem studies on 5-HT(2A)Rs expression and functionality in schizophrenia are scarce. The 5-HT2AR mRNA and immunoreactive protein ...
EUNIS Habitat Classification: Expert system, characteristic species combinations and distribution maps of European habitats
(Wiley, 2020-10)
Aim The EUNIS Habitat Classification is a widely used reference framework for European habitat types (habitats), but it lacks formal definitions of individual habitats that would enable their unequivocal identification. ...
Intramolecular Palladium(II)-catalyzed 6-endo C-H alkenylation directed by the remote N-protecting group. Mechanistic insight and application to the synthesis of dihydroquinolines
(American Chemical Society, 2019-12-30)
A protocol for the Pd(II)-catalyzed C-H alkenylation reaction of substituted N-allylanilines
via an unusual 6-endo process has been developed. A DFT study of the mechanistic pathway has shown
that the coordination of the ...
Pd(II)-Catalyzed C-H Acylation of (Hetero)arenes. Recent Advances
(MDPI, 2020-07-16)
Di(hetero)aryl ketones are important motifs present in natural products, pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. In recent years, Pd(II)-catalyzed acylation of (hetero)arenes in the presence of an oxidant has emerged as a catalytic ...
Modeling the Effector - Regulatory T Cell Cross-Regulation Reveals the Intrinsic Character of Relapses in Multiple Sclerosis
(Biomed Central, 2011-07-15)
Background: The relapsing-remitting dynamics is a hallmark of autoimmune diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Although current understanding of both cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of ...
Peculiar magnetocaloric properties and critical behavior in antiferromagnetic Tb3Ni with complex magnetic structure
(Elsevier, 2019-08-12)
A study on the magnetocaloric properties of a Tb3Ni single crystal (which crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group) has been undertaken and combined with the study of the character and critical behavior of its ...
Magnetocaloric properties, magnetic interactions and critical behavior in Ho6(Fe,Mn)Bi2 intermetallics
(Elsevier, 2020-02-08)
Four polycrystaline Fe2P-type Ho6(Fe,Mn)Bi2 intermetallic compounds (space group , No. 189, hP9) have been studied using magnetic techniques in order to explore their ability as magnetocaloric materials, and study the ...
Study of the magnetocaloric effect in intermetallics RTX (R = Nd, Gd; T = Sc, Ti ; X = Si, Ge)
(Elsevier, 2019-05-02)
A detailed study of the magnetocaloric properties of six compounds of the intermetallic family RTX (R = Nd, Gd; T = Sc, Ti ; X = Si, Ge) has been undertaken: NdScSi, NdScGe, GdScSi, GdScGe, GdSc(Si0.5Ge0.5) and Gd(Sc0.5Ti0.5)Ge. ...
Critical behavior of the ferromagnetic transition in GdSc(Si,Ge) intermetallic compounds
(Elsevier, 2018-07-26)
A complete study on the critical behavior of the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic transition in intermetallics GdScSi, GdScGe, GdSc(Si0.5Ge0.5) and Gd(Sc0.5Ti0.5)Ge has been carried out by means of magnetic as well as ...
