Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a developmental disorder characterized by inattentiveness, motor hyperactivity and impulsivity. According to neuroimaging data, the neural substrate underlying ADHD seems to involve fronto-striatal circuits and the cerebellum. However, there are important discrepancies between various studies, probably due to the use of different techniques. The aim of this study is to examine cerebral gray (GM) and white (WM) matter abnormalities in a group of ADHD ...

The authors show that pregnancy involves substantial and consistent structural changes in the human brain, primarily located in regions subserving social cognition. These changes overlap with areas that respond to the mothers' babies and predict measures of postpartum maternal attachment. Moreover, they endure for at least 2 years after pregnancy. Pregnancy involves radical hormone surges and biological adaptations. However, the effects of pregnancy on the human brain are virtually unknown. Here ...

Abstract Retroviral vectors constitute the most efficient system to deliver and integrate foreign genes into mammalian cells. We have developed a producer cell line that yields high titers of amphotropic retroviral vectors carrying the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene, a codon humanized, red-shifted variant of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene, which can be used as a selectable marker. We have used a hybrid vector that has been shown to efficiently drive gene expression in hematopoietic ...

Living organisms have developed a chemical machinery based on the ferritin protein for the storage, under a nontoxic form, of the iron that is not required for immediate metabolic purposes. Whereas free iron causes extensive cell damage, ferritin iron is not toxic, yet still available for cell requirements. However, iron storage in ferritin is increasingly being recognized as a crucial process related with some neurodegenerative disorders and therefore, an understanding of the management of iron ...

In Argentina, head blight (caused by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe), is a highly risky disease of wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. emm. Thell), although its occurrence is sporadic, depending on prevalent environmental variables. This unpredictability has stimulated the development of predictive models of head blight occurrence that, if successful, would help growers in the selection of control strategies. As a result of our earlier work, empirical equations for predicting head blight incidence were developed ...

Long-term effects of psychostimulants such as methylphenidate on ADHD patients have been proved to be difficult to capture in cross-sectional studies comparing medicated and non-medicated samples and in longitudinal studies with children, with age-related maturational processes possibly confounding independent effects of medication. However, chronic psychostimulant administration at therapeutic doses has been proven to yield profound neuroadaptive changes in rodent models. Here, we present for the ...

With the successes of antiretroviral therapy, patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) living longer. Regarding this, the common diseases of HIV population (i.e., opportunistic infections) are now losing ground in front of metabolic alterations. This phenomenon is related to the delay in progression to acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), making it so that patients live in a chronic inflammatory state which, combined with other mechanisms such infectious ones, cause metabolic ...

Rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, are intensively cultured globally. Understanding their requirement for long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) and the biochemistry of the enzymes and biosynthetic pathways required for fatty acid synthesis is important and highly relevant in current aquaculture. Most gnathostome vertebrates have two fatty acid desaturase (fads) genes with known functions in LC-PUFA biosynthesis and termed fads1 and fads2. However, teleost fish have exclusively fads2 genes. ...

The elongases of very long-chain fatty acids (Elovl) account for the rate-limiting condensation step of the elongation process in fatty acid (FA) biosynthesis in vertebrates. One member of the Elovl family, Elovl4, has been regarded as a critical enzyme in vertebrates in the production of the so-called very long-chain fatty acids (VLC-FA), a group of compounds that has been scarcely explored in fish. Here we report on the cloning of a novel Elovl4-like elongase from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). The ...

A current problem in the chemical control of late-season soybean diseases (LSD) is the lack of scientific guidelines to determine whether or not a fungicide application is needed, and if needed, to further determine a better fungicide application timing. To help in that decision process, Carmona et al. developed a scoring system (SS) based on weather, disease pressure, and other factors that are useful in estimating the probability of expected net return to fungicide treatment. Based on the SS, we ...

In some specific fields of application (e.g., cosmetics, pharmacy), textile substrates need to incorporate sensible molecules (active principles) that can be affected if they are sprayed freely on the surface of fabrics. The effect is not controlled and sometimes this application is consequently neglected. Microencapsulation and functionalization using biocompatible vehicles and polymers has recently been demonstrated as an interesting way to avoid these problems. The use of defined structures (polymers) ...

Yellow rust (YR), caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is one of the most destructive diseases of wheat worldwide. In 2017, YR emerged in Argentina and spread quickly into three million hectares, causing damage at levels only seen during the severe epidemics during the late 1930s. This widespread occurrence coincided with reports of newly introduced exotic races into the country. Therefore, little was known about actual impact of the disease on yield, reaction of commercial wheat cultivars, ...

First described in Europe in 1777, stripe rust (SR) caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. tritici Eriks (Pst) is one of the most important and destructive diseases of wheat worldwide. Until 2000, SR was mainly endemic to cooler regions, but since then, new aggressive strains have emerged, spread intercontinentally, and caused severe epidemics in warmer regions across the world. This has put SR as a disease that poses a threat to the world food security. At present, the preferred strategy ...
