Effect of bimodal mesoporous carbon as PtRu catalyst support for direct methanol fuel cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08)
Mesoporous carbons (MCs) with different pore sizes were synthesized and evaluated as a catalyst support for fuel cells. The MCs were obtained from resorcinol-formaldehyde precursors, polymerized in the presence of ...
Hydrogen sulphide as a guard cell network regulator
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-11-29)
Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is an endogenously produced gasotransmitter that has rapidly emerged as an active signalling component of several plant processes, stomatal movement regulation among them. The guard cells (GCs), ...
Controlled adhesion and proliferation of a human osteoblastic cell line by tuning the nanoporosity of titania and silica coatings
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013-02)
The engineering of surfaces to control cell adhesion represents an active area of biomaterials research. Herein, we demonstrate that it is possible to tune the adhesion and proliferation of a human osteoblastic cell line ...
Potato Snakin-1 gene silencing affects cell division, primary metabolism, and cell wall composition
(American Society of Plant Biologist, 2012-01)
Snakin-1 (SN1) is an antimicrobial cysteine-rich peptide isolated from potato (Solanum tuberosum) that was classified as a member of the Snakin/Gibberellic Acid Stimulated in Arabidopsis protein family. In this work, a ...
Myosin VI Reduces Proliferation, but Not Differentiation, in Pluripotent P19 Cells
(Public Library of Science, 2013-05-17)
Background:We have previously shown marked upregulation of the mRNA and corresponding protein for the cellular motor molecule myosin VI (Myo6) after an extremely traumatic stress experience, along with a delayed decrease ...
Morphology and size of blood cells of Rhinella arenarum (Hensel, 1867) as environmental health assessment in disturbed aquatic ecosystem from central Argentina
(Springer Heidelberg, 2017-11)
Four populations of Rhinella arenarum from aquatic environments with different degrees of disturbance in central Argentina were compared to assess the ability of cytomorphology and cytomorphometry of blood cells as a ...
Morphogenetic and histogenetic roles of the temporal-spatial organization of cell proliferation in the vertebrate corticogenesis as revealed by inter-specific analyses of the optic tectum cortex development
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2016-03)
The central nervous system areas displaying the highest structural and functional complexity correspond to the so called cortices, i.e. concentric alternating neuronal and fibrous layers. Corticogenesis, i.e. the development ...
Methodological approach to the ex vivo expansion and detection of T. cruzi-specific T cells from chronic Chagas disease patients
(Public Library of Science, 2017-05-26)
The discovery of T cell epitopes is essential not only for gaining knowledge about host response to infectious disease but also for the development of immune-intervention strategies. In Chagas disease, given the size and ...
Phage adsorption to Lactobacillus plantarum: influence of physiological and environmental factors.
(Elsevier Science, 2010-03)
Bacteriophage infection of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) constitutes one of the major problems in the dairy industry, causing economic losses and a constant risk of low quality and/or unsafe foods. The first step in the phage ...
Metformin inhibition of colorectal cancer cell migration is associated with rebuilt adherens junctions and FAK downregulation
(Wiley, 2020-04-02)
E‐cadherin, a central component of the adherens junction (AJ), is a single‐pass trans- membrane protein that mediates cell?cell adhesion. The loss of E‐cadherin surface ex- pression, and therefore cell?cell adhesion, leads ...
