Possible antigravity regions in F (R) theory?
(Elsevier, 2014-03-07)
We construct an F(R) gravity theory corresponding to the Weyl invariant two scalar field theory. We investigate whether such F (R) gravity can have the antigravity regions where the Weyl curvature invariant does not diverge ...
Entrevista a Alfonso Zapico
(Rumble Editorial, 2014-11)
[ES] Entre viaje y viaje Alfonso Zapico (1981), este asturiano “flaco, tímido, provinciano y socialdemócrata”, como él mismo se autodenomina, nos ha cedido parte de su tiempo con esta entrevista. El laureado ilustrador ...
Autophagic Marker MAP1LC3B Expression Levels Are Associated with Carotid Atherosclerosis Symptomatology
(Public Library Science, 2014-12-12)
Objectives: The mechanism by which atheroma plaque becomes unstable is not completely understood to date but analysis of differentially expressed genes in stable versus unstable plaques may provide clues. This will be ...
Properties of convergence of a class of iterative processes generated by sequences of self-mappings with applications to switched dynamic systems
(Springer International Publishing, 2014-12-15)
This article investigates the convergence properties of iterative processes involving sequences of self-mappings of metric or Banach spaces. Such sequences are built from a set of primary self-mappings which are either ...
Efficacy and safety of autologous platelet rich plasma for the treatment of vascular ulcers in primary care: Phase III study
(Biomed Central, 2014-12-30)
Background: Vascular ulcers are commonly seen in daily practice at all levels of care and have great impact at personal, professional and social levels with a high cost in terms of human and material resources. Given that ...
Apaf-1 Inhibitors Protect from Unwanted Cell Death in In Vivo Models of Kidney Ischemia and Chemotherapy Induced Ototoxicity
(Public Library Science, 2014-10-20)
Background: Excessive apoptosis induces unwanted cell death and promotes pathological conditions. Drug discovery efforts aimed at decreasing apoptotic damage initially targeted the inhibition of effector caspases. Although ...
Osteometric analysis of the scapula and humerus of Rangifer tarandus and Cervus elaphus : A contribution to the discrimination of Late Pleistocene cervids
(Inst Paleobiologii Pan, 2014-12)
Fossil remains of reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) occurring outside their present range are an important indicator of formerly cold climatic conditions, but are easily confused with those of the red deer (Cervus elaphus). The ...
The E2F2 Transcription Factor Sustains Hepatic Glycerophospholipid Homeostasis in Mice
(Public Library Science, 2014-11-14)
Increasing evidence links metabolic signals to cell proliferation, but the molecular wiring that connects the two core machineries remains largely unknown. E2Fs are master regulators of cellular proliferation. We have ...
BAMS: A Tool for Supervised Burned Area Mapping Using Landsat Data
(MDPI, 2014-12)
A new supervised burned area mapping software named BAMS (Burned Area Mapping Software) is presented in this paper. The tool was built from standard ArcGIS (TM) libraries. It computes several of the spectral indexes most ...
Differential Neuroprotective Effects of 5 '-Deoxy-5 '-Methylthioadenosine
(Public Library Science, 2014-03-05)
Background: 5'-deoxy-5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA) is an endogenous compound produced through the metabolism of polyamines. The therapeutic potential of MTA has been assayed mainly in liver diseases and, more recently, in ...
