New Insights on Arabidopsis thaliana Root Adaption to Ammonium Nutrition by the Use of a Quantitative Proteomic Approach
(MDPI, 2019-02-14)
Nitrogen is an essential element for plant nutrition. Nitrate and ammonium are the two major inorganic nitrogen forms available for plant growth. Plant preference for one or the other form depends on the interplay between ...
Effects of a physical activity programme to prevent physical performance decline in onco‐geriatric patients: a randomized multicentre trial
(2019-03)
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 ...
Co-administration of Anti microRNA-124 and -137 Oligonucleotides Prevents Hippocampal Neural Stem Cell Loss Upon Non-convulsive Seizures
(Frontiers Media, 2019-02-19)
Convulsive seizures promote adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN) through a transient activation of neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) in the subgranular zone (SGZ) of the dentate gyrus (DG). However, in a significant ...
Glycosaminoglycans in human retinoblastoma cells: heparan sulfate, a modulator of the pigment epithelium-derived factor-receptor interactions
(BioMed Central, 2003-02-19)
BACKGROUND: Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) has binding affinity for cell-surface receptors in retinoblastoma cells and for glycosaminoglycans. We investigated the effects of glycosaminoglycans on PEDF-receptor ...
Development and Maintenance of the Brain’s Immune Toolkit: Microglia and Non-Parenchymal Brain Macrophages
(Wiley, 2018-06)
Microglia and non-parenchymal macrophages located in the perivascular space, the meninges and the choroid plexus are independent immune populations that play vital roles in brain development, homeostasis, and tissue healing. ...
The C Terminus of the Ribosomal-Associated Protein LrtA Is an Intrinsically Disordered Oligomer
(MDPI, 2018-12-05)
The 191-residue-long LrtA protein of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 is involved in post-stress survival and in stabilizing 70S ribosomal particles. It belongs to the hibernating promoting factor (HPF) family, intervening in ...
Metabolic Effects of Oral Phenelzine Treatment on High-Sucrose-Drinking Mice
(MDPI, 2018-10)
Phenelzine has been suggested to have an antiobesity effect by inhibiting de novo lipogenesis, which led us to investigate the metabolic effects of oral chronic phenelzine treatment in high-sucrose-drinking mice. ...
Existence of Solutions for a System of Integral Equations Using a Generalization of Darbo’s Fixed Point Theorem
(MDPI, 2020-04-01)
In this paper, an extension of Darbo’s fixed point theorem via θ -F-contractions in a Banach space has been presented. Measure of noncompactness approach is the main tool in the presentation of our proofs. As an application, ...
Quantum cosmology of the Big Rip: Within GR and in a modified theory of gravity
(MDPI, 2017-04-14)
Quantum gravity is the theory that is expected to successfully describe systems that are under strong gravitational effects while at the same time being of an extreme quantum nature. When this principle is applied to the ...
D5 dopamine receptors control glutamatergic AMPA transmission between the motor cortex and subthalamic nucleus
(Nature Publishing, 2018-06-11)
Corticofugal fibers target the subthalamic nucleus (STN), a component nucleus of the basal ganglia, in addition to the striatum, their main input. The cortico-subthalamic, or hyperdirect, pathway, is thought to supplement ...
