Arboreal Tradition and Subversion: An Ecocritical Reading of Shakespeare’s Portrayal of Trees, Woods and Forests
(Lodz University Press, 2020-06)
This paper analyses from an ecocritical standpoint the role of trees, woods and forests and their symbolism in William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Macbeth, The Merchant of Venice, The Merry Wives of Windsor, A Midsummer Night’s ...
Vargar
(Mythopoeic Society, 2021)
Squinting my eyes and resuming the frenzied spurring, I headed unflinchingly towards the setting sun. The
gap between my steed and the couple of pursuers was widening, we were almost outside their shooting
range.
van der Waals driven anharmonic melting of the 3D charge density wave in VSe2
(Nature, 2021-01-27)
Understanding of charge-density wave (CDW) phases is a main challenge in condensed matter due to their presence in high-Tc superconductors or transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Among TMDs, the origin of the CDW in ...
Characterization of dopamine D2 receptor coupling to G proteins in postmortem brain of subjects with schizophrenia
(Springer, 2021-08)
Background: Alterations of dopamine D-1 (D1R) and D-2 receptor (D2R) are proposed in schizophrenia but brain neuroimaging and postmortem studies have shown controversial results in relation to D1R and D2R density. Besides, ...
BRAF V600E mutational load as a prognosis biomarker in malignant melanoma
(Public Library Science, 2020-03-13)
Analyzing the mutational load of driver mutations in melanoma could provide valuable information regarding its progression. We aimed at analyzing the heterogeneity of mutational load of BRAF V600E in biopsies of melanoma ...
RKIP Regulates Differentiation-Related Features in Melanocytic Cells
(MDPI, 2020-06-03)
Raf Kinase Inhibitor Protein (RKIP) has been extensively reported as an inhibitor of keysignaling pathways involved in the aggressive tumor phenotype and shows decreased expressionin several types of cancers. However, ...
Serum markers improve current prediction of metastasis development in early-stage melanoma patients: a machine learning-based study
(Wiley, 2020-06)
Metastasis development represents an important threat for melanoma patients, even when diagnosed at early stages and upon removal of the primary tumor. In this scenario, determination of prognostic biomarkers would be of ...
Composition Dependent Miscibility in the Crystalline State of Polyamide 6 /Polyamide 4,10 Blends: from Single to Double Crystalline Blends
(Elsevier, 2021-02-22)
In this work, we studied the composition-dependent miscibility of polyamide 6 and biobased polyamide 4,10 (PA6/PA410) blends, as triggered by crystallization driven phase segregation. The blends were prepared by extrusion ...
Study of the interlayer adhesion and warping during material extrusion-based additive manufacturing of a carbon nanotube/biobased thermoplastic polyurethane nanocomposite
(Elsevier, 2021-04-07)
A thermoplastic bio-polyurethane from renewable sources (TPU) and the nanocomposite developed by mixing it
with carbon nanotubes (CNT) are investigated as potentially adequate for Material Extrusion-based Additive
Manufacturing ...
Thermo-rheological effects on succesful 3D printing of biodegradable polyesters
(Elsevier, 2020-06-23)
Biodegradable polybutylene succinate (PBS) and poly (butylene succinate-ran-adipate) (PBSA) were characterized to find the thermo-rheological bases for 3D printing by Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF). In dynamic viscoelastic ...
