1. HFE hemochromatosis: an overview about therapeutic recommendations
Abstract Hemochromatosis is currently characterized by the iron overload caused by hepcidin deficiency. Large advances in the knowledge on the hemochromatosis pathophysiology have occurred due to a better understanding of the protein of the iron metabolism, the genetic basis of hemochromatosis and of other iron overload diseases or conditions which can lead

2. A Genetic Algorithm for Pointwise Source Reconstruction by the Method of Fundamental Solutions
ABSTRACT Inverse source reconstruction problems offer great potential for applications of interest to engineering, such as the identification of polluting sources, and to medicine, such as electroencephalography, to cite at least two relevant examples. From a mathematical point of view, the identification of a concentrated source (intensity and location) cor

3. PERSPECTIVAS DE MERCADO E DESAFIOS DA PRODUÇÃO DO ÁCIDO ITACÔNICO A PARTIR DE BIOMASSA
Itaconic acid (IA) is a very promising platform molecule due to the possibility of it being used to obtain products such as methyl methacrylate and synthetic latex, with the prospect that its global market will grow at an average annual rate of 2.8% (CAGR) from 2021 to 2026, exceeding US$ 116.6 million in sales. The main technological route used to obtain it

4. Ammopiptanthus mongolicus stress-responsive NAC gene enhances the tolerance of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana to drought and cold stresses
Abstract Drought and cold are the primary factors limiting plant growth worldwide. The Ammopiptanthus mongolicus NAC11 (AmNAC11) gene encodes a stress-responsive transcription factor. Expression of the AmNAC11 gene was induced by drought, cold and high salinity. The AmNAC11 protein was localized in the nucleus and plays an important role in tolerance to drou

5. Engineering biodiversity as a model for the species conservation
Abstract: Early humans have domesticated plant and animal species based on ancient empirical concepts (Darwin 1868, 1876). In 1886, Mendel established a new paradigm of hereditary laws (Mendel 1866, 1870, 1950) based on genotypic and phenotypic traits of cross-compatible species, establishing a complex breeding technology that is currently utilized for the d

6. Analysis of sensor placement in beams for crack identification
Abstract A previous study has shown that the mode shapes of a beam are more sensitive to damage than other vibrational parameters, thus making them better suited for crack identification purposes. However, they have the disadvantage of being more difficult to be measured. To overcome this difficulty, an interesting idea is to monitor changes produced by crac

7. Genetic engineering of Theileria parva lactate dehydrogenase gene: a new anti-theilerial target
ABSTRACT: Theileria parva is the causative agent of East Coast Fever (ECF), a tick borne disease, which results in major economic losses in cattle. Major problems in dealing with this illness are the high cost of drugs, development of resistance, and absence of effective vaccines. Thus, exploiting new targets for cost effective and higher therapeutic value d

8. Free vibration analysis and design optimization of SMA/Graphite/Epoxy composite shells in thermal environments
Abstract Composite shells, which are being widely used in engineering applications, are often under thermal loads. Thermal loads usually bring thermal stresses in the structure which can significantly affect its static and dynamic behaviors. One of the possible solutions for this matter is embedding Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wires into the structure. In the

9. Isolation and characterization of a promoter responsive to salt, osmotic and dehydration stresses in soybean
Abstract Drought stress is the main limiting factor of soybean yield. Currently, genetic engineering has been one important tool in the development of drought-tolerant cultivars. A widely used strategy is the fusion of genes that confer tolerance under the control of the CaMV35S constitutive promoter; however, stress-responsive promoters would constitute the

10. New biotechnological tools to accelerate scab-resistance trait transfer to apple
Abstract Apple is a fruit crop cultivated worldwide. Apple orchards are exposed to a diverse set of environmental and biological factors that affect the productivity and sustainability of the culture. Many of the efforts and costs for apple production rely on reducing the incidence of fungal diseases, and one of the main diseases is apple scab caused by the

11. Genetic Engineering In BioButanol Production And Tolerance
ABSTRACT The growing need to address current energy and environmental problems has sparked an interest in developing improved biological methods to produce liquid fuels from renewable sources. Higher-chain alcohols possess chemical properties that are more similar to gasoline. Ethanol and butanol are two products which are used as biofuel. Butanol production
