Effect of resveratrol on alcohol-induced mortality and liver lesions in mice
(BioMed Central, 2006-11-14)
Background
Resveratrol is a polyphenol with important antiinflammatory and antioxidant properties. We investigated the effect of resveratrol on alcohol-induced mortality and liver lesions in mice.
Methods
Mice were ...
trans-10, cis-12 Conjugated linoleic acid inhibits lipoprotein lipase but increases the activity of lipogenic enzymes in adipose tissue from hamsters fed an atherogenic diet
(Cambridge University Press, 2006-06)
The aim of the present work was to investigate the effects of trans-10,cis-12conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on the activity and expression of lipogenic enzymes and lipoprotein lipase (LPL), as well as on the expression of ...
New Uses for Old Needs in the Diaspora: Watching Basque Television in Latin America
(Macquarie University, 2006)
The transformations occurring in the communications media are resulting in the emergence of new uses amongst diasporic and migratory groups. An example of this is found in satellite television, which makes the regular, ...
Problems when generating virtual models representing real objects: Hondarribia walls
(2006)
[EN] This report shows an example of virtual modelling applied to a heritage construction, the walls of the city of Hondarribia (Gipuzkoa, Spain). Therefore, it is not a model recreating a building upon hypothetical data ...
Adaptive control of time-invariant systems with discrete delays subject to multiestimation
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2006)
This paper deals with a robustly stable adaptive pole-placement-based controller for time-delay linear systems with unknown point delays within known intervals of sufficiently small lengths under unmodeled dynamics and ...
Stabilization criteria for continuous linear time-invariant systems with constant lags
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2006)
Some criteria for asymptotic stability of linear and time-invariant systems with constant point delays are derived. Such criteria are concerned with the properties of robust stability related to two relevant auxiliary ...
Stability and assignment of spectrum in systems with discrete time lags
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2006)
The asymptotic stability with a prescribed degree of time delayed systems subject to multiple bounded discrete delays has received important attention in the last years. It is basically proved that the alpha-stability ...
Fatty acid composition of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue in Spanish infants and children
(Cambridge University Press, 2006-01)
There is a relationship between the fatty acid profile in skeletal muscle phospholipids and peripheral resistance to insulin in adults, but similar data have not been reported in infancy and childhood. The objective of ...
Competition, regulation, and pricing behavior in the Spanish retail gasoline market
(2006)
The restructuring of the Spanish oil industry produced a highly concentrated oligopoly in the retail gasoline market. In June 1990 the Spanish government introduced a system of ceiling price regulation in order to ensure ...
Nonparametric estimation betas in the Market Model
(2006)
In this study an alternative nonparametric estimator to the Fama and MacBeth approach for the CAPM estimation is proposed. Betas and risk premiums are estimated simultaneously in order to increase the explanatory power of ...
