Péptidos derivados de lactoferrina bovina contra la hipertensión arterial: inhibición de los sistemas angiotensina y endotelina
2015
En esta Tesis Doctoral se ha caracterizado el mecanismo de acción de hidrolizados y péptidos antihipertensivos derivados de la proteína láctea lactoferrina bovina (LF). En concreto, se ha determinado su efecto sobre los principales componentes del sistema renina-angiotensina (RAS) y del sistema endotelina. Para ello, se han utilizado diferentes aproximaciones experimentales que incluyen en primer lugar ensayos in vitro para determinar los efectos inhibitorios sobre la actividad de la enzima conversora de angiotensina (ECA) y sobre la enzima conversora de endotelina (ECE). En segundo lugar, se realizaron ensayos funcionales ex vivo para comprobar en arterias aisladas los efectos vasoactivos …

Intertekstualitātes elementi "Uncharted" spēļu sērijā
2021
Pētnieciskā darba tēma ir saistīta ar intertekstualitātes elementu analīzi Sony PlayStation ekskluzīvās videospēļu triloģijas ‘Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection’, konkrēti ‘Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune’, ‘Uncharted 2: Among Thieves’ un ‘Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception’ videospēļu stāstījumā. Šī pētījuma mērķis ir uzzināt uz kādiem citiem tekstiem atsaucās spēles stāstījums un kāda ir intertekstualitātes funkcija šo spēļu stāstījumos. Pētījuma rezultāti liecina, ka videospēles autori izmanto vēsturisku personu rakstus, citātus, biogrāfiju un sabiedrībā, un kultūrā zināmas leģendas kā pamatu aizraujošu bagātību meklējumu stāstījumiem, kas veiksmīgi palīdz videospēles patērētājam aizbēgt jeb…
A conservative treatment for eosinophilic cystitis
2022
Introduction: Eosinophilic cystitis is a rare condition which causes common symptoms and may mimic other conditions. Eosinophilic cystitis has several causes such as hypereosinophilic syndrome, inflammatory diseases, neoplasia, parasites or fungal infection, IgE-related diseases, Drug Reaction and Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) syndrome, or Churg-Strauss syndrome. Therefore, differential diagnosis is difficult. Case presentation: We report the case of a middle-aged man affected by eosinophilic cystitis with persistent hematuria and other peculiar symptoms that may be brought back to hypereosinophilic crisis. Conclusion: Conservative approach is preferred, avoiding radical cystec…
A GEOSITE TO BE SAVED: THE TYRRHENIAN FOSSIL DEPOSIT ON THE ISLAND OF USTICA
2014
During the 1960s, fossil beds characterized by a tropical-sea malacofauna were discovered by G. Ruggieri and G. Buccheri in the Island of Ustica, on the southern slope of Falconiera hill, 32 m asl. Thanks to the presence of Strombus bubonius and other Senegalese guests, the authors estimated that the molluscan fauna had lived around 125,000 years ago, during the Tyrrhenian stage. Recently on the initiative of the “Centro Studi e Documentazione Isola di Ustica”, a research has been initiated to verify the persistence of sand-layers mixed up with Tyrrhenian fossils, even though, in the last 50 years, that area has undergone great changes, because of earthworks which have sealed the deposit. T…

Methodology for the estimation of the increase in time loss due to future increase in tropical cyclone intensity in Japan
2009
Published version of an article from the journal: Climatic Change. The original publication is available at Spingerlink. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10584-009-9725-9 The present paper develops a methodology for estimating the risks and consequences of possible future increases in tropical cyclone intensities that would allow policy makers to relatively quickly evaluate the cost of different mitigation strategies. The methodology simulates future tropical cyclones by modifying the intensity of historical tropical cyclones between the years 1978 and 2007. It then uses a Monte Carlo Simulation to obtain the expected number of hours that a certain area can expect to be affected by winds of a giv…
The Raunis section, central Latvia, revisited: first luminescence results and re-evaluation of a key Baltic States stratigraphic site

Regional climate model simulations for Europe at 6 and 0.2 k BP: sensitivity to changes in anthropogenic deforestation
2014
International audience; This study aims to evaluate the direct effects of anthropogenic deforestation on simulated climate at two contrasting periods in the Holocene, ∼ 6 and ∼ 0.2 k BP in Eu-rope. We apply the Rossby Centre regional climate model RCA3, a regional climate model with 50 km spatial resolution, for both time periods, considering three alternative descriptions of the past vegetation: (i) potential natural vegetation (V) simulated by the dynamic vegetation model LPJ-GUESS, (ii) potential vegetation with anthro-pogenic land use (deforestation) from the HYDE3.1 (History Database of the Global Environment) scenario (V + H3.1), and (iii) potential vegetation with anthropogenic land …
