Correction:Cancer risks by gene, age, and gender in 6350 carriers of pathogenic mismatch repair variants: findings from the Prospective Lynch Syndrom…
2020
Lynch syndrome (LS) results from pathogenic variants in the mismatch repair (MMR) genes and is the most common hereditary cancer syndrome, affecting an estimated 1 in 300 individuals. Pathogenic variants in each of the MMR genes path_MLH1, path_MSH2, path_MSH6, and path_PMS2 result in different risks for cancers in organs including the colorectum, endometrium, ovaries, stomach, small bowel, bile duct, pancreas, and upper urinary tract. Accurate estimates of these risks are essential for planning appropriate approaches to the prevention or early diagnosis of cancers but the robustness of previous studies has been limited by factors including retrospective design,1,2 lack of validation in ind…
Orveliskie motīvi Haruki Murakami darbā „1Q84”
2017
Šī darba izstrādes gaitā autors ir veicis pētījumu par angļu literatūras klasiķa Džordža Orvela romāna „1984” ietekmi uz populārā mūsdienu japāņu autora Haruki Murakami sarakstīto romānu „1Q84”. Darbā tiek izmantotas salīdzināšanas un analīzes metodes, ar kuru palīdzību tiek tuvāk pētīti galvenie motīvi, kas parādās abos literārajos darbos. Mūsdienās sabiedrība pievērš arvien lielāku uzmanību tādām tēmām kā propaganda un dažādas valsts vadīšanas sistēmas, tāpēc šie abu autoru romāni ir kļuvuši ļoti aktuāli un tajos ir negaidītas analoģijas ar mūsdienu pasaulē notiekošo. Darbā tiek tuvāk izklāstīta arī abu autoru biogrāfija un literārā darbība. Pēc tam tiek veikta tekstu analīze un salīdzinā…

Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel
1799
Ms. 930a, Nr. 8, Bl. 22r-23v Böttiger, Karl August. Brief an Garlieb H. Merkel, Weimar, d[en] 13. November 1797 Autora rokraksts / Autograph, vācu, angļu un latīņu val. / Deutsch, Englisch und Latein [4] lpp. / S. Attēlu numuri / Bildnummern: 930a-008-1 – 930a-008-4 Der Verfasser nennt in diesem inhaltsreichen Brief zahlreiche Namen und hält nicht nur die Verbindung mit Merkel, die aus dessen erstem Aufenthalt in Weimar resultierte, aufrecht, sondern gibt ihm weitere Hinweise und Empfehlung für seinen weiteren Aufenthalt in Dänemark. So rät er zur Übersetzung dreier Romane aus dem Englischen, darunter Jane Wests „A gossip's story“ (London 1796). Ferner bittet der Verfasser Merkel um Gefälli…
Stoichiometry-related Auger lineshapes in titanium oxides: Influence of valence-band profile and of Coster-Kronig processes
2004
International audience; The ability to determine the nature and the occurrence of defects is a central need of ceramic surface chemistry. In titanium oxides, the Ti-LMV Auger decays line shape is very sensitive to the titanium degree of oxidation, and has long been empirically used as a qualitative probe of the stoichiometry. In the present work, resonant Auger and resonant valence-band measurements at the Ti-L2,3 edges in TiO2, TiO2–x and metallic titanium provide a clear evidence that the evolutions of the Ti-LMV Auger line shape are due to drastic changes in the valence-band profile and in the probability of L2L3V Coster-Kronig decay processes when a fraction of titanium ions is reduced.…

Seasonal gene expression kinetics between diapause phases in Drosophila virilis group species and overwintering differences between diapausing and no…
2015
AbstractMost northern insect species experience a period of developmental arrest, diapause, which enables them to survive over the winter and postpone reproduction until favorable conditions. We studied the timing of reproductive diapause and its long-term effects on the cold tolerance of Drosophila montana, D. littoralis and D. ezoana females in seasonally varying environmental conditions. At the same time we traced expression levels of 219 genes in D. montana using a custom-made microarray. We show that the seasonal switch to reproductive diapause occurs over a short time period and that overwintering in reproductive diapause has long-lasting effects on cold tolerance. Some genes, such as…
Dielectric spectroscopy measurements of the sub-Tg relaxations in amorphous ethyl cellulose: A relaxation magnitude study
2005
Amorphous ethyl cellulose exhibits three secondary relaxations at temperatures below its glass transition. The fitted parameters that describe these processes and the comparison with other polysaccharides allow to ascribe the relaxations to lateral groups on one hand and to local main chain motion on the other hand. Their contributions to the dielectric constant overlap and induce a broad dielectric losses peak. The amplitude of one of these relaxations is found to decrease regularly with time. It is believed it comes from a gradual change of the polar groups chemical environment that constrains their motion.
Sodium channels enable fast electrical signaling and regulate phagocytosis in the retinal pigment epithelium
2019
Background Voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels have traditionally been considered a trademark of excitable cells. However, recent studies have shown the presence of Nav channels in several non-excitable cells, such as astrocytes and macrophages, demonstrating that the roles of these channels are more diverse than was previously thought. Despite the earlier discoveries, the presence of Nav channel-mediated currents in the cells of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) has been dismissed as a cell culture artifact. We challenge this notion by investigating the presence and possible role of Nav channels in RPE both ex vivo and in vitro. Results Our work demonstrates that several subtypes of Nav cha…
