Calmodulin binds to p21(Cip1) and is involved in the regulation of its nuclear localization.

1999

p21(Cip1), first described as an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases, has recently been shown to have a function in the formation of cyclin D-Cdk4 complexes and in their nuclear translocation. The dual behavior of p21(Cip1) may be due to its association with other proteins. Different evidence presented here indicate an in vitro and in vivo interaction of p21(Cip1) with calmodulin: 1) purified p21(Cip1) is able to bind to calmodulin-Sepharose in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner, and this binding is inhibited by the calmodulin-binding domain of calmodulin-dependent kinase II; 2) both molecules coimmunoprecipitate when extracted from cellular lysates; and 3) colocalization of calmodulin and p21(Cip…

Ultrastructural and histochemical analysis reveals ethylene-induced responses underlying reduced peel collapse in detached citrus fruit

2010

Fruits from many citrus cultivars develop depressed areas in the flavedo (outer part of the peel) and albedo (inner part) following detachment. Although ultrastructural analysis may provide important information about multiple plant responses to stresses and external stimuli at the cell and tissue levels, and despite the proved efficacy of ethylene in reducing peel damage in citrus fruit, cytological responses of this horticultural crop to protective ethylene concentrations have not yet been reported. We show that applying high ethylene levels (2 mu L L(-1) for 14 days) causes sublethal stress as it favored the alteration of cuticle, vacuole, middle lamella and primary wall, especially in t…

A convenient chemo-enzymatic synthesis and 18F-labelling of both enantiomers of trans-1-toluenesulfonyloxymethyl-2-fluoromethyl-cyclopropane

2008

The present report is concerned with a stereoselective, reliable route to trans-1,2-disubstituted cyclopropanes and in particular to (S,S)-1-tosyloxymethyl-2-fluoromethyl-cyclopropane (1) and (R,R)-1-tosyloxymethyl-2-fluoromethyl-cyclopropane (ent-1) as conformationally restricted, terminally fluorinated C4-building blocks for medicinal chemistry. The enzymatic kinetic resolution based synthesis of 1 and ent-1 utilises inexpensive, commercially available starting materials. It is based on enantiomeric resolution of rac-cyclopropane carboxylic esters using esterase from Streptomyces diastatochromogenes. Both enantiomers of 1 were prepared selectively in high overall yield over nine steps, st…

Primary Cytomegalovirus Infection in Seronegative Kidney Transplant Patients Is Associated with Protracted Cold Ischemic Time of Seropositive Donor O…

2017

Human Cytomegalovirus (CMV) can lead to primary infection or reactivation in CMV-seronegative or -seropositive kidney transplant recipients, respectively. Complications comprise severe end-organ diseases and acute or chronic transplant rejection. Risk for CMV manifestation is stratified according to the CMV-IgG-serostatus, with donor+/recipient- (D+/R-) patients carrying the highest risk for CMV-replication. However, risk factors predisposing for primary infection in CMV-seronegative recipients are still not fully elucidated. Therefore, we monitored D+/R- high-risk patients undergoing kidney transplantation in combination with antiviral prophylaxis for the incidence of CMV-viremia for a med…

Spontaneous cytotoxic activity of eosinophilic granule cells separated from the normal peritoneal cavity ofDicentrarchus labrax

2000

Abstract In this study the spontaneous in vitro cytotoxic activity to tumour cell lines, (K562), by unstimulated sea bass ( Dicentrarchus labrax ) leukocytes was examined by trypan blue exclusion test and lactate dehydrogenase release assay. A high anti-tumour cell line activity of resident peritoneal leukocytes was found at an effector to target ratio (E:T) of 25:1 after incubation for 2 h at 18° C. Rabbit and sheep erythrocytes were not lysed. A low activity was displayed by head kidney and spleen cell populations whereas blood leukocytes revealed no significant activity. The effect of E:T ratio on cytotoxicity as well as microscopy observations suggested that the cytotoxic reaction requi…

Meeting the Challenges of Generational Change in the Teaching Profession : Towards a European Model for Intergenerational Teacher Collaboration

2013

In a European-wide effort to improve the professional development of teachers, the 2AgePro project was conducted from November 2008 to October 2010. One of its goals was to develop and test different forms of intergenerational teacher collaboration among junior and senior teachers in primary and secondary schools. Another aim was to utilise the results from these pilots, which were conducted in the Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden, to create a model for intergenerational collaboration that could be used in any national or cultural setting. This article reports on the national pilots and proposes a European model for intergenerational collaboration for teachers. …

Tratamiento del carcinoma de labio mediante braquiterapia de alta tasa de dosis

2005

Dado los diferentes métodos terapéuticos para el cáncer de labio, el objetivo del presente estudio es valorar los resultados obtenidos en un grupo prospectivo de 28 pacientes afectos de carcinoma de labio tratados mediante moldes externos de braquiterapia de alta tasa de dosis. Tanto por la remisión completa que ocurrió en todos los casos, la buena tolerancia a la terapia, la ausencia de complicaciones y de recurrencias, la facilidad de empleo de los moldes, la precisión en el posicionamiento de la fuente en la repetición diaria del tratamiento y la seguridad que ofrece en cuanto a radioprotección, concluímos que esta terapéutica probablemente se convierta en la de uso habitual en los próxi…

KOSMOS 2018 Gran Canaria mesocosm study: water column biogeochemistry

2021

The data set compiles biogeochemical water column collected during a KOSMOS mesocosm experiment carried out in the frame work of the Ocean Artificial Upwelling project. The experiment was performed in the North-East Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Gran Canaria in autumn 2018 and lasted for 39 days. In this study we investigated the effect of different intensities of artificial upwelling combined with two upwelling modes (recurring additions versus one singular addition) on POC export and its potential transfer efficiency to depth. The data set includes the amounts of surface water that were exchanged with nutrient-rich deep water (from ~300 m depth), primary production and chlorophyll a, el…
