1. Clinical Significance of HSCARG for Atherosclerotic Coronary Heart Disease and Reduced ROS-Oxidative Stress in in Vivo and in Vitro Models via p47phox by NF-κB Activity
ABSTRACT Introduction: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a dynamic process in which there are interactions between endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses. The aim of the present study was to investigate the function and mechanism of HSCARG in the treatment of CHD. Methods: Male apolipoprotein E/low-density lipoprotein receptor-

2. Implications of global climate change for the development and ecological interactions between two key Amazonian aquatic macrophytes
ABSTRACT Amazon wetlands are among the most vulnerable ecosystem to be impacted by climate change, which may increase the frequency of extreme droughts and floods. We used Eichhornia crassipes and Pistia stratiotes, two abundant aquatic plants in the Amazon floodplains, to evaluate the effects of combined temperature and [CO2] increase on growth, physiology

3. A IMPORTÂNCIA DAS CUMARINAS PARA A QUÍMICA MEDICINAL E O DESENVOLVIMENTO DE COMPOSTOS BIOATIVOS NOS ÚLTIMOS ANOS
Coumarins are natural products characterized as 2H-chromen-2-one, according to IUPAC nomenclature, largely distributed in plants, as well as, in species of fungi and bacteria. Nowadays, many synthetic procedures allow the discovery of coumarins with expanded chemical space. The ability to exert non-covalent interactions with many enzymes and receptors in liv

4. Quantifying individual variation in reaction norms using random regression models fitted through Legendre polynomials: application in eucalyptus breeding
ABSTRACT An accurate, efficient and informative statistical method for analyses of genotype × environment (G × E) interactions is a key requirement for progress in any breeding program. Thus, the objective of this study was to quantify individual variation in reaction norms using random regression models fitted through Legendre polynomials in eucalyptus (E

5. Nickel-Cerium Layered Double Hydroxide as Electrocatalyst for Glycerol Oxidation
A new nickel based layered double hydroxide nanomaterial, Ni0.8Ce0.2-LDH, constituted by about 3 nm large nanoparticles exhibiting enhanced electrocatalytic properties towards oxidation of glycerol in alkaline media, was prepared by incorporation of 20 wt.% of CeIII ions into α-nickel hydroxide. This can be oxidized to CeIV, as demonstrated by X-ray photoel

7. Germination responses of Lycium humile, an extreme halophytic Solanaceae: understanding its distribution in saline mudflats of the southern Puna
ABSTRACT Although knowledge about halophytic Solanaceae is scarce, it is known that several species within genus Lycium tolerate salinity. Lycium humile grows in highly saline soils in mudflats near saline Andean lakes. This study evaluated the germination responses of L. humile under different scarification methods, photoperiods, temperatures and saline con

8. New Insights into the Partitioning of Phenothiazine Dyes in Aqueous Two-Phase Systems
Aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs) have proven to be efficient and environmentally safe methods for extracting chemical species. However, the driving forces behind the partition of solutes in these systems are still little understood. A complete thermodynamic partitioning of phenothiazine dyes was investigated in poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) + salt + water ATPS

9. Understanding Solvent/Bixin Interactions by Raman Spectroscopy
In this work, Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used in order to understand the nature of the interaction between the carotenoid bixin and organic solvents with dielectric constant varying from ca. 2 (toluene) to ca. 47 (dimethyl sulfoxide). Raman shifts registered for the main carotenoid marker band, the C=C stret

10. Can plant hybridization and polyploidy lead to pollinator shift?
ABSTRACT Events of both hybridization and polyploidy are capable of completely restructuring the genome, modifying phenotypic traits and affecting ecological interactions. For plants, these changes may affect floral traits that are important for interactions with pollinators, which could lead to shifts in pollinator behavior and taxa between hybrids/polyploi

11. Root parasitism by Scybalium fungiforme Schott & Endl. is not random among host species in seasonal tropical forest
ABSTRACT Though they comprise 1 % of plant species on the planet, plant parasites are poorly known. They have been considered a threat to cultivated plants and to the conservation of host species in natural areas. Due to the complex interactions they have with their hosts, understanding their biology is fundamental to the development of conservation strategi

12. Recent Developments on the Elucidation of Colloidal Aspects of Asphaltenes and Their Relevance to Oilfield Problems
Asphaltenes constitute the heavy petroleum fraction responsible for deposition events that may lead to reduced oil production, therefore of great interest for flow assurance. These molecules self-assemble in solutions leading to formation of aggregates that eventually grow towards precipitation and blockages in reservoirs and pipelines. Based on the Yen-Mull
