Non-transferrin-bound iron is associated with biomarkers of oxidative stress, inflammation and endothelial dysfunction in type 2 diabetes.
(2015-09)
AIMS: To investigate the association between circulating non-transferrin-bound iron [NTBI], and markers of oxidative stress, endothelial function and inflammation in subjects with type 2 diabetes and non-diabetic subjects ...
Intracellular NAD+ levels are associated with LPS-induced TNF-α release in pro-inflammatory macrophages.
(2016-01-13)
Metabolism and immune responses have been shown to be closely linked and as our understanding increases, so do the intricacies of the level of linkage. NAD(+) has previously been shown to regulate tumour necrosis factor-α ...
Effect of the use of a commercial phosphate mixture on selected quality characteristics of 2 Spanish-style dry-ripened sausages.
(2011-06)
UNLABELLED: The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of the addition of a commercial phosphate mixture in 2 dry-ripened Spanish-style sausages: "salchichón" and "chorizo." Three batches of each of those sausages ...
Intraocular lens opacification after corneal endothelial keratoplasty: electron microscopy and x-ray element spectroscopy analysis.
(2015-01)
PURPOSE: To assess a newly recognized long-term complication of Descemet-stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK). SETTING: Plymouth Royal Eye Infirmary and Plymouth Electron Microscope Centre, Plymouth, United ...
Evidence for distinct coastal and offshore communities of bottlenose dolphins in the north east Atlantic.
(2015)
Bottlenose dolphin stock structure in the northeast Atlantic remains poorly understood. However, fine scale photo-id data have shown that populations can comprise multiple overlapping social communities. These social ...
Long Term Aggresome Accumulation Leads to DNA Damage, p53-dependent Cell Cycle Arrest, and Steric Interference in Mitosis.
(2015-11-13)
Juxtanuclear aggresomes form in cells when levels of aggregation-prone proteins exceed the capacity of the proteasome to degrade them. It is widely believed that aggresomes have a protective function, sequestering potentially ...
Coastal urbanization leads to remarkable seaweed species loss and community shifts along the SW Atlantic.
(2013-11-15)
Coastal urbanization is rapidly expanding worldwide while its impacts on seaweed communities remain poorly understood. We assessed the impact of urbanization along an extensive latitudinal gradient encompassing three ...
Lower attention to daily environment: a novel cue for detecting chronic horses' back pain?
(2016-01-29)
Chronic pain is thought to affect patients' cognitive functioning, including attention. Loss of attention is likely to have an impact on the execution of daily tasks, and, therefore, to have negative effects. However, ...

(2014)
Interstate wars and animal contests both involve disputed resources, restraint and giving up decisions. In both cases it seems illogical for the weaker side to persist in the conflict if it will eventually lose. In the ...
Individual-level behavioral responses of immature green turtles to snorkeler disturbance.
(2017-03)
Despite many positive benefits of ecotourism, increased human encounters with wildlife may have detrimental effects on wild animals. As charismatic megafauna, nesting and foraging sea turtles are increasingly the focus of ...
