Noncoding RNA-related polymorphisms in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia susceptibility
(Springer, 2014-03-11)
Background: Evidence for an inherited genetic risk for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia has been provided in several studies. Most of them focused on coding regions. However, those regions represent only 1.5% of the ...
Errors in the interpretation of copy number variations due to the use of public databases as a reference
(Elsevier, 2014-03-14)
The identification of new cryptic deletions and duplications can be used to improve prognostic classification in cancer. To obtain accurate results, it is necessary to discriminate between somatic alterations in the tumor ...
Spin Hall magnetoresistance at Pt/CoFe2O4 interfaces and texture effects
(AIP publishing, 2014-10-08)
We report magnetoresistance measurements on thin Pt bars grown on epitaxial (001) and (111) CoFe2O4 (CFO) ferrimagnetic insulating films. The results can be described in terms of the recently discovered spin Hall ...
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 ...
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. ...
AC and DC technology in microgrids: a review
(Elsevier, 2014-12-05)
Microgrids are a suitable, reliable and clean solution to integrate distributed generation into the mains grid. Microgrids can present both AC and DC distribution lines. The type of distribution conditions the performance ...
The effect of hydroxylated fatty acid-containing phospholipids in the remodeling of lipid membranes
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-01-24)
The synthetic fatty acid 2-hydroxyoleic acid (2OHOA) is an antitumor drug that regulates membrane lipid composition and structure. An important effect of this drug is the restoration of sphingomyelin (SM) levels in cancer ...
Stability of CuZnOAl2O3/HZSM-5 and CuFe2O4/HZSM-5 catalysts in dimethyl ether steam reforming operating in reaction-regeneration cycles
(Elsevier, 2014-05-21)
The study focuses on the regenerability of bifunctional catalysts prepared with different metallic functions (CuZnOAl2O3 and CuFe2O4 spinel) and HZSM-5 zeolite (SiO2/Al2O3 = 30) as the acid function. These catalysts have ...
Sojourn time approximations in a multi-class time-sharing server
(IEEE, 2014-07-08)
We study a multi-class time-sharing discipline with relative priorities known as Discriminatory Processor Sharing (DPS), which provides a natural framework to model service differentiation in systems. The analysis of DPS ...
Genetic and metabolic determinants of methotrexate-induced mucositis in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Springer Nature, 2014-11-04)
Methotrexate (MTX) is an effective and toxic chemotherapeutic drug in the treatment of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL). In this prospective study, we aimed to identify metabolic and genetic determinants of MTX ...
