To study the relative importance of inbreeding depression and the loss of adaptive diversity in determining the extinction risk of small populations, we carried out an experiment in which we crossed and self-fertilized founder plants from a single, large population of shore campion (Silene littorea Brot.). We used the seeds these plants produced to colonize 18 new locations within the distribution area of the species. The reintroduced populations were of three kinds: inbred and genetically homogeneous, ...

Background Urothelial bladder carcinoma (UBC) is a chemo-sensitive tumour, but the response to treatment is heterogeneous. CD147 has been associated with chemotherapy resistance. We aimed to define tumours with an aggressive phenotype by the combined analysis of clinicopathological and biological parameters. Methods 77 patients with T1G3 or muscle-invasive UBC treated by radical cystectomy were studied. Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect CD147, heparanase, CD31 (blood vessels identification) ...

To make combinatorial optimization more efficient, we introduce the Filtering Variational Quantum Eigensolver (F-VQE) which utilizes filtering operators to achieve faster and more reliable convergence to the optimal solution. Additionally we explore the use of causal cones to reduce the number of qubits required on a quantum computer. Using random weighted MaxCut ...

They also participate in regulating pathological cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction. Mechanisms of regulation, however, are incompletely understood. Herein, the aim of this study is to explore the possible association between the expression pattern of different NK cell receptors (phenotype), as well as the cytotoxic function of NK cells from AMI patients ...

Many species of bacteria involved in degradation of n-alkanes have an important constitutional metabolic enzyme, the alkane hydroxylase called AlkB, specialized in the conversion of hydrocarbons molecules that can be used as carbon and/or energy source. This enzyme plays an important role in the microbial degradation of oil, chlorinated hydrocarbons, fuel additives, and many other compounds. A number of these enzymes has been biochemically characterized in detail because the potential of alkane ...

Although the practice of sports is considered a healthy act, there are limits and, when these limits are reached, the benefits of sport can turn into problems. Thus, the biodynamic response method is increasingly being used to study the human injuries induced by external vibrations.

Dual-energy CT allows an accurate differentiation between HA areas related to contrast staining (CS) or to brain hemorrhage (BH).

Several immuno-regulatory abnormalities have been described in SLE patients. T cell dysfunction in SLE includes defective in vitro proliferative responses to several stimuli, reduced IL-2 production and a poor helper function. It has been widely proposed that this defective T cell immunoregulatory function has a key role in the hyperactivity of B cells and auto-antibody production in SLE. However, it has not been elucidated whether or not this cell dysfunction is intrinsic to lymphocytes or is due ...

According to the neurogenic theory of Chagas' heart disease, the cardiac parasympathetic abnormalities of chagasic cardiac patients are due to a selective destruction of the cardiac parasympathetic neurons. Trypanosoma cruzi would selectively destroy the cardiac vagal neurons, during the acute stage of the disease. However, these cardiac parasympathetic abnormalities are found mainly in chagasic patients who are in very advanced stages of the disease. Furthermore, the extent of cardiac parasympatethic ...
