However, the plasticity of internal bone morphology, and particularly trabecular bone, allowing it to respond to mechanical loading during life means that it can reveal greater insight into how a bone or joint was used during an individual's lifetime. Analyses of trabecular bone have been commonplace for several decades in a human clinical ... περισσότερα »

Ischemic postconditioning influences electron transport chain protein turnover in Langendorff-perfused rat hearts
Ischemia postconditioning (IPo) is a promising strategy in reducing myocardial ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury (MIRI), but its specific molecular mechanism is incompletely understood. Langendorff-perfused isolated rat hearts were subjected to global I/R and received IPo in the absence or presence of the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel (mitoKATP) blocker 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD). Myocardial mitochondria were extracted and mitochondrial comparative proteomics was analyzed. IPo significantly reduces post-ischemic myocardial infarction and improved cardiac function in... περισσότερα »
A pan-cancer analysis of prognostic genes
Numerous studies have identified prognostic genes in individual cancers, but a thorough pan-cancer analysis has not been performed. In addition, previous studies have mostly used microarray data instead of RNA-SEQ, and have not published comprehensive lists of associations with survival. Using recently available RNA-SEQ and clinical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas for 6,495 patients, we have investigated every annotated and expressed gene's association with survival across 16 cancer types. The most statistically significant harmful and protective genes were not shared across can...περισσότερα »
α-Phosphonovinyl Arylsulfonates: An Attractive Partner for the Synthesis of α-Substituted Vinylphosphonates through Palladium-Catalyzed Suzuki Reactions
Abstract It has been demonstrated that a variety of α-phosphonovinyl arylsulfonates with electron-neutral, -donating, and -withdrawing groups on the phenyl ring could be conveniently and efficiently prepared. In the presence of a Pd(OAc)2/SPhos-based catalyst, various organoboron compounds could be employed as the nucleophilic coupling partners, such as organoboronic acids, boronate esters, and organotrifluoroborates. The newly developed *O*-centered electrophiles could couple with a multitude of aryl, heteroaryl, and alkylboron reagents, to give α-substituted vinylphosphonates in ...περισσότερα »

Role of palliative radiotherapy in the management of mural cardiac metastases: who, when and how to treat? A case series of 10 patients
Abstract Cardiac metastases (CM), although a rare manifestation of metastatic cancer, are increasing in incidence with the improved prognosis and increased longevity of many patients with cancer. This condition may be life-threatening, especially for bulky rapidly growing tumors. Such cancer presentations may be amenable to palliative radiotherapy to improve symptoms and to prevent further cardiac function decline. Here, we report on our experience with 10 patients with mural CM who received radiotherapy (RT) to the heart with palliative intent. The radiation treatment was given i... περισσότερα »
Oral epithelial cells and their interactions with HIV-1
As the AIDS pandemic has continued, our understanding of the events that occur during the entry and infection of conventional, susceptible cells has increased dramatically, leading to the development of control therapies for HIV-infected individuals. However, an ongoing hole in our understanding is how HIV crosses the mucosal barriers to gain access to permissive cells, despite how important this information would be in developing successful vaccines and other preventative measures such as topical anti-HIV microbicides. In particular, our knowledge of the role that epithelial cel... περισσότερα »

Publication date: March 2016 *Source:*Journal of Phonetics, Volume 55 Author(s): Argyro Katsika This study aims at examining and accounting for the scope of the temporal effect of phrase boundaries. Previous research has indicated that there is an interaction between boundary-related lengthening and prominence such that the former extends towards the nearby prominent syllable. However, it is unclear whether this interaction is due to lexical stress and/or phrasal prominence (marked by pitch accent) and how far towards the prominent syllable the effect extends.

The relationship of pulmonary vascular resistance and compliance to pulmonary artery wedge pressure during submaximal exercise in healthy older adults
AlexAndros SfakianakisστοMedicine by Alexandros G.Sfakianakis,Anapafseos 5 Agios Nikolaos,Crete 72100,Greece,tel :00302841026Πριν από 1 ώρα
Abstract The resistive and pulsatile components of right ventricular afterload [pulmonary vascular resistance (Rp) and compliance (Cp)] are related by an inverse hyperbolic function, expressed as their product known as RpCp-time. The RpCp-time exhibits a narrow range, but may be altered by the pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP). Elucidating the determinants of RpCp-time should improve the understanding of the physiologic behaviour of the pulmonary arterial systolic, diastolic, and mean pressure (PASP, PADP, mPAP) in response to perturbations. We examined the effect of exercise ...περισσότερα »

Abstract Extra-cranial cerebral blood vessels are implicated in the regulation of cerebral blood flow during changes in arterial CO2; however, the mechanisms governing CO2 mediated vasomotion of these vessels in humans remain unclear. We determined if cyclooxygenase inhibition with Indomethacin (INDO) reduces the vasomotor response of the internal carotid artery (ICA) to changes in end-tidal CO2 (PETCO2). Using a randomized single-blinded placebo controlled study, participants (*n* = 10) were tested on two occasions, before and 90-minutes following oral INDO (1.2mg/kg) or placebo. ...περισσότερα »

Abstract It is well known that attentional capture by an irrelevant salient item is contingent on top-down feature selection, but whether attentional capture may be modulated by top-down spatial attention remains unclear. Here, we combined behavioral and ERP measurements to investigate the contribution of top-down spatial attention to attentional capture under modified spatial cueing paradigms. Each target stimulus was preceded by a peripheral circular cue array containing a spatially uninformative color singleton cue. We varied target sets but kept the cue array unchanged among di... περισσότερα »
