Oligodendrocyte differentiation from adult multipotent stem cells is modulated by glutamate
(Nature Publishing Group, 2012-02)
We used multipotent stem cells (MSCs) derived from the young rat subventricular zone (SVZ) to study the effects of glutamate in oligodendrocyte maturation. Glutamate stimulated oligodendrocyte differentiation from SVZ-derived ...
GABA release by hippocampal astrocytes
(Frontiers Res Found, 2012-08-17)
Astrocytes can directly influence neuronal activity through the release of various transmitters acting on membrane receptors expressed by neurons. However, in contrast to glutamate and ATP for instance, the release of GABA ...
Stereoselective inverse conjugate addition of nitrogen and carbon nucleophiles to allenyl phosphine oxide. Synthesis of α,β-unsaturated phosphine oxides
(ARKAT USA, Inc, 2012)
[EN] The reactivity of new three carbon synthon, generated in situ from the reaction of electrondeficient allenes with an appropriate phosphine as the catalyst, toward pronucleophilic reagents is described. Triphenylphos ...
Multiple table factor analysis applied to the higher education competences
(Purple Gate Publishing, 2012-04)
Due to the recent implantation of the Bologna
process, the definition of competences in Higher Education is an important matter that deserves special attention and requires
a detailed analysis. For that reason, we study ...
Uncovering Ecosystem Service Bundles through Social Preferences
(Public Library of Science, 2012-06-18)
Ecosystem service assessments have increasingly been used to support environmental management policies, mainly based on biophysical and economic indicators. However, few studies have coped with the social-cultural dimension ...
Ancient DNA from Hunter-Gatherer and Farmer Groups from Northern Spain Supports a Random Dispersion Model for the Neolithic Expansion into Europe
(Public Library of Science, 2012-04-25)
Background/Principal Findings: The phenomenon of Neolithisation refers to the transition of prehistoric populations from a hunter-gatherer to an agro-pastoralist lifestyle. Traditionally, the spread of an agro-pastoralist ...
PPs without Disguises: Reply to Bruening
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press, 2012-08)
[EN]Bresnan and Nikitina (2009) and Rappaport Hovav and Levin (2008) show that, contrary to standard assumptions, fixed-theme idioms may
appear in to-constructions under certain pragmatic circumstances. Bruening (2010a) ...
Multiple SNP Markers Reveal Fine-Scale Population and Deep Phylogeographic Structure in European Anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus L.)
(Public Library of Science, 2012-07-30)
Geographic surveys of allozymes, microsatellites, nuclear DNA (nDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have detected several genetic subdivisions among European anchovy populations. However, these studies have been limited in ...
Molecular detection of plaice remains in the stomachs of potential predators on a flatfish nursery ground.
(Inter-Research, 2012-01-10)
Stomach contents of potential predators from a flatfish nursery ground on the Scot-
tish west coast were examined visually and probed using a TaqMan real-time PCR based assay
designed to detect plaice Pleuronectes platessa ...
Toward Semantic Interoperability of Electronic Health Records
(IEEE, 2012)
Although the goal of achieving semantic interoperability of electronic health records (EHRs) is pursued by many researchers, it has not been accomplished yet. In this paper, we present a proposal that smoothes out the way ...
