Polymorphisms in miRNA processing genes and their role in osteosarcoma risk
(Wiley, 2015-02-07)
Background
The possible associations between genetic variants and osteosarcoma risk have been analyzed without conclusive results. Those studies were focused mainly on genes of biologically plausible pathways. However, ...
The Consequences of Air Density Variations over Northeastern Scotland for Offshore Wind Energy Potential
(MDPI, 2019-07-09)
Hywind-Scotland is a wind farm in Scotland that for many reasons is at the leading edge of technology and is located at a paradigmatic study area for offshore wind energy assessment. The objective of this paper is to compute ...
Sustained increase of PKA activity in the post-commissural putamen of dyskinetic monkeys
(Springer, 2014-04-05)
Levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID) are a frequent complication of Parkinson's disease pharmacotherapy that causes significant disability and narrows the therapeutic window. Pharmacological management of LID is challenging ...
Varying climate sensitivity at the drought-linked distribution edge of P. sylvestris and P. nigra.
(Elsevier, 2013-08-23)
Rear edge populations, those residing at the low-latitude margins of species ranges, represent a critical genetic diversity for species conservation, management, and evolutionary potential. The present study analyses ...
Yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) inhibits lymphocyte activation in vitro
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2016-09-19)
Yerba mate (YM) has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties in several studies. However, this effect has been found mainly in obesity-related inflammation. The aim of this work was to study the effect of YM on ...
Willow lignin oxidation and depolymerization under low cost ionic liquid
(ACS, 2016-05-10)
Willow biomass was subjected to different pretreatmentconditions with triethylammonium hydrogen sulfate as solvent, andthe produced lignin solutions were treated by oxidation either homo-geneously using H2O2as oxidant or ...
Reading speed in subtitling for hearing impaired children: an analysis in Spanish television
(University of Roehampton (London), 2016)
[EN] Reading speed is one of the essential parameters to consider when designing subtitles for a hearing impaired audience. Images, subtitles and spoken dialogue are the three sources of information in a subtitled audiovisual ...
Translating slang for dubbing: a descriptive case study of Jackie Brown (english-spanish)
(Sociedad Española de Lenguas Modernas, 2014)
[EN] The use and creation of slang have been widely studied from linguistic, sociolinguistic and translational points of view. It is a burning field of study, since slang has always been linked to society and its individuals. ...
Study of a renewable capping agent addition in lignin base catalysed depolymerisation process
(Elsevier, 2020-07-13)
The aim of this work was to study the influence of a renewable capping agent (CA) in the production of monomeric compounds from the depolymerization of an organosolv lignin (Pinus radiata) by a base catalyzed depolymerization ...
Unexpected trends in halogen-bond based noncovalent adducts
(RSC, 2012-06-14)
Unexpected trends in the strengths of halogen-bond based adducts of CY3I (Y = F, Cl, Br, I) with two typical Lewis bases (chloride and trimethylamine) show that the halogen-bond donor strength (Lewis acidity) of a compound ...
