Gestational hypothyroidism is a prevalent disorder in pregnant women. We aimed to investigate the impact of experimental gestational hypothyroidism (EGH) on cardiovascular and autonomic nervous systems (ANS) in the offspring of rats. EGH was induced with methimazole (MMI) 0.02% in drinking water from day 9 of gestation until birth. Sixty day old offspring from MMI-treated dams (OMTD, n=13) or water-treated dams (OWTD, n=13) had femoral arteries surgically assessed for the measurements of heart rate (HR), ...

The optic canal is a bony channel that connects the anterior cranial fossa and orbit and contains the optic nerve and ophthalmic artery. It can be affected by several pathologies, leading to compression of the nerve nearby or inside the canal, leading to visual impairment. The usual technique to decompress the canal is through a craniotomy, but recently endoscopic endonasal approaches (EEAs) have surfaced as an interesting alternative due to direct access to the canal without the need for manipulation ...

Abstract BACKGROUND: The performance of three particle swarm optimisation (PSO) algorithms was assessed in relation to their capability to optimise an alternative fermentation process for the production of biobutanol. The process consists of three interconnected units: fermentor, cell retention system and vacuum flash vessel (responsible for the continuous recovery of butanol from the broth). The dynamic behaviour of the process was described by a non‐linear mathematical model. Four constrained optimisation ...

Abstract Vector-borne plant pathogens often change host traits to manipulate vector behavior in a way that favors their spread. By contrast, infection by opportunistic fungi does not depend on vectors, although damage caused by an herbivore may facilitate infection. Manipulation of hosts and vectors, such as insect herbivores, has not been demonstrated in interactions with fungal pathogens. Herein, we establish a new paradigm for the plant-insect-fungus association in sugarcane. It has long been ...

This paper presents a wavelength assignment algorithm suitable for optical networks mainly impaired by physical layer effects, named the Intelligent Wavelength Assignment algorithm (iWA). The main idea is to determine the wavelength activation order for a first-fit algorithm that balances the impact of the physical layer effects by using a training algorithm inspired by evolutionary concepts. The iWA presents some recently proposed concepts in intelligent optimization algorithms, such as an external ...

Osteoporosis is a public health problem, with bone loss being the main consequence. Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been largely used as a bioceramic to stimulate bone growth. In our work, a cerium-containing HA (Ce-HA) has been proposed and its effects on the antimicrobial and bone-inducing properties were investigated. The synthesis of the materials occurred by the suspension–precipitation method (SPM). The XRD (X-ray Diffraction) confirmed the crystalline phase, and the Rietveld refinement confirmed the ...

Nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB) has emerged as a crucial regulator of cell survival, playing important functions in cellular resistance to oxidants and chemotherapeutic agents. Recent studies showed that NFκB mediates cell survival through suppression of the accumulation of reactive species (RS) and a control of sustained activation of the Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) cascade. This work was undertaken in order to evaluate the role of NFκB in modulating the pro-oxidant effects of supplementation with vitamin ...

Prohormone proteins in animals and yeast are typically processed at dibasic sites by convertases. Propeptide hormones are also found in plants but little is known about processing. We show for the first time that a dibasic site upstream of a plant peptide hormone, AtRALF1, is essential for processing. Overexpression of preproAtRALF1 causes semi‐dwarfism whereas overexpression of preproAtRALF1(R69A), the propeptide with a mutation in the dibasic site, shows a normal phenotype. RALF1(R69A) plants ...

The yeast 20S proteasome is subject to sulfhydryl redox alterations, such as the oxidation of cysteine residues (Cys‐SH) into cysteine sulfenic acid (Cys‐SOH), followed by S‐glutathionylation (Cys‐S‐SG). Proteasome S‐glutathionylation promotes partial loss of chymotrypsin‐like activity and post‐acidic cleavage without alteration of the trypsin‐like proteasomal activity. Here we show that the 20S proteasome purified from stationary‐phase cells was natively S‐glutathionylated. Moreover, recombinant glutaredoxin ...

Magnetic properties of graphenic carbon nanostructures, which are relevant for future spintronic applications, depend crucially on doping and on the presence of defects. In this paper we study the magnetism of the recently detected substitutional Ni $({\text{Ni}}_{\text{sub}})$ impurities. ${\text{Ni}}_{\text{sub}}$ defects are nonmagnetic in flat graphene and develop a nonzero-spin moment only in metallic nanotubes. This surprising behavior stems from the peculiar curvature dependence of the electronic ...

The electromechanical impedance (EMI) technique has been successfully used in structural health monitoring (SHM) systems on a wide variety of structures. The basic concept of this technique is to monitor the structural integrity by exciting and sensing a piezoelectric transducer, usually a lead zirconate titanate (PZT) wafer bonded to the structure to be monitored and excited in a suitable frequency range. Owing to the piezoelectric effect, there is a relationship between the mechanical impedance of ...
