Natural disasters and informality: are local labor markets impacted after an earthquake?
(2020)
This article studies the probability of being part of informal labor markets after a natural disaster. We consider different concepts of labor market informality and use empirical definitions for employment in the informal ...
p75NTR antagonists attenuate photoreceptor cell loss in murine models of retinitis pigmentosa
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-07)
ProNGF signaling through p75NTR has been associated with neurodegenerative disorders. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) comprises a group of inherited retinal dystrophies that causes progressive photoreceptor cell degeneration and ...
Antibacterial and anti-biofilm activities of cinnamaldehyde against S. epidermidis
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-01-01)
The search for new antimicrobial drugs has been necessary due to the increased bacterial resistance to antibiotics currently in use, and natural products play an important role in this field. The aim of this study was to ...
Suppression of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1 alpha Contributes to the Antiangiogenic Activity of Red Propolis Polyphenols in Human Endothelial Cells
(AMER SOC NUTRITION-ASNBETHESDA, 2012)
Polyphenol-enriched fractions from natural sources have been proposed to interfere with angiogenesis in pathological conditions. We recently reported that red propolis polyphenols (RPP) exert antiangiogenic activity. ...
Soybean resistance to stink bugs (Nezara viridula and Piezodorus guildinii) increases with exposure to solar UV-B radiation and correlates with isoflavonoid content in pods under field conditions
(Wiley, 2015-05)
Solar UV-B radiation (280–315 nm) has a significant influence on trophic relationships in natural and managed ecosystems, affecting plant–insect interactions. We explored the effects of ambient UV-B radiation on the levels ...
The importance of thermoperiod for proper gametogenesis and successful egg and sperm production in meagre (Argyrosomus regius) breeders in aquaculture
(Natl Centre Marine Research, 2021-01-01)
We examined the effect of constant water temperature throughout the year on gametogenesis, spawning success and egg/sperm/embryo quality in meagre (Argyrosomus regius). Two broodstocks were exposed to simulated natural ...
Preclinical development of kinetin as a safe error-prone SARS-CoV-2 antiviral able to attenuate virus-induced inflammation
(Nature, 2023)
O artigo trata do desenvolvimento de um antiviral de uso oral contra a Covid-19. A substância, batizada de MB-905, foi purificada a partir da cinetina e demonstrou-se eficaz para inibir a replicação do Sars-CoV-2 em linhagens ...
