Fine-Tuning of Sirtuin 1 Expression Is Essential to Protect the Liver From Cholestatic Liver Disease
(Wiley, 2019-02)
Cholestasis comprises aetiologically heterogeneous conditions characterized by accumulation of bile acids in the liver that actively contribute to liver damage. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) regulates liver regeneration and bile acid ...
Talker and Acoustic Variability in Learning to Produce Nonnative Sounds: Evidence from Articulatory Training
(Language Learning, 2019)
Compared to low‐variability training, high‐variability training leads to better learning outcomes and supports generalization of learning. However, it is unclear whether the learning advantage is driven by multiple talkers ...

Diet and prey selection by snow leopards in the Nepalese Himalayas
(Public Library Science, 2018-12-05)
Visual attractiveness and rarity often results in large carnivores being adopted as flagship species for stimulating conservation awareness. Their hunting behaviour and prey selection can affect the population dynamics of ...
Dbx1-Derived Pyramidal Neurons Are Generated Locally in the Developing Murine Neocortex
(Frontiers Media, 2018-10-31)
The neocortex (NCx) generates at the dorsal region of the pallium in the forebrain. Several adjacent structures also contribute with neurons to NCx. Ventral pallium (VP) is considered to generate several populations of ...
The nexus between climate change, ecosystem services and human health: Towards a conceptual framework
(Science of the Total Environment, 2018)
This paper addresses the impact that changes in natural ecosystems can have on health and wellbeing focusing on the potential co-benefits that green spaces could provide when introduced as climate change adaptation measures. ...
Single Chiral Skyrmions in Ultrathin Magnetic Films
(MDPI, 2018-11-11)
The stability and sizes of chiral skyrmions in ultrathin magnetic films are calculated accounting for the isotropic exchange, Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya exchange interaction (DMI), and out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy within ...
State of the Art and Trends Review of Smart Metering in Electricity Grids
(MDPI, 2016-03)
Climate change, awareness of energy efficiency, new trends in electricity markets, the obsolescence of the actual electricity model, and the gradual conversion of consumers to prosumer profiles are the main agents of ...
Mechanical, Electrical and Magnetic Properties of Ferrogels with Embedded Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Obtained by Laser Target Evaporation: Focus on Multifunctional Biosensor Applications
(MDPI, 2018-03)
Hydrogels are biomimetic materials widely used in the area of biomedical engineering and biosensing. Ferrogels (FG) are magnetic composites capable of functioning as magnetic field sensitive transformers and field assisted ...
Racetrack potentials and the de Sitter swampland conjectures
(Springer, 2019-01)
We show that one can find de Sitter critical points (saddle points) in models of flux compactification of Type IIB String Theory without any uplifting terms and in the presence of several moduli. We demonstrate this by ...
