Resveratrol (RVT) derivatives (10a-i) were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their potential as gamma-globin inducers in treating Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) symptoms. All compounds were able to release NO at different ...

Study Objective: The Chilean legislation forbids induced abortion, so little is known of the young women who have abortions and what determinants are associated with this practice. In this study we examined the association ...

An increase in pulmonary artery pressure is a common observation in adult mammals exposed to global alveolar hypoxia. It is considered a maladaptive response that places an increased workload on the right ventricle. The ...

In this paper we argue that the emergence of the classical world from the underlying quantum reality involves two elements: self‐induced decoherence and macroscopicity. Self‐induced decoherence does not require the openness ...

We studied the kinetics of calcium release induced by SH oxidation in triads isolated from frog and rabbit skeletal muscle by measuring calcium fluxes by a fast filtration method. In both species SH oxidation induced release ...

The potential of yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) to induce chlorogenate hydrolase (EC 3.1.1.42, CHase) activity in different fungal strains has been investigated. CHase was highly induced in mycelia of Aspergillus niger ...

The hexagonal nanomembranes of the group III-nitrides are a subject of interest due to their novel technological applications. In this paper, we investigate the strain- and electric field-induced modulation of their band ...
