Increased Gamma Connectivity in the Human Prefrontal Cortex during theBereitschaftspotential
2017
The Bereitschaftspotential (BP) is a slow negative cortical potential preceding voluntary movement. Since movement preparation is dependent upon the synchronous activity of a variety of neurons, BP may develop through the exchange of information among motor-related neurons. However, the relationship between BP and information flow is not yet well-known. In the present study, we aimed to investigate how the connectivity in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) changes during the occurrence of BP. Electrocorticography (ECoG) was recorded in five patients with epilepsy. The subjects performed self-paced hand grasping. We compared the intraregional connectivity between PFC and non-PFC regions using parti…
Validation of Semantic Analyses of Unstructured Medical Data for Research Purposes
2019
BACKGROUND: In secondary data there are often unstructured free texts. The aim of this study was to validate a text mining system to extract unstructured medical data for research purposes. METHODS: From a radiological department, 1,000 out of 7,102 CT findings were randomly selected. These were manually divided into defined groups by 2 physicians. For automated tagging and reporting, the text analysis software Averbis Extraction Platform (AEP) was used. Special features of the system are a morphological analysis for the decomposition of compound words as well as the recognition of noun phrases, abbreviations and negated statements. Based on the extracted standardized keywords, findings rep…
4-hydroxynonenal inhibits glutathione peroxidase: protection by glutathione
1999
Abstract 4-Hydroxy-2,3-trans-nonenal, a lipid peroxidation product, inhibits glutathione peroxidase in a concentration-dependent manner. The concentration providing 50% inhibition is 0.12 mM. This inhibition can be almost completely (89%) prevented by 1 mM glutathione added to the incubation mixture 30 min before 4-hydroxy-2,3-trans-nonenal or 2,3-trans-nonenal, but not by other thiol-containing antioxidants such as 0.5 mM dithiothreitol or β-mercaptoethanol. Again the addition of 1 mM glutathione, and not of 0.5 mM dithiothreitol or β-mercaptoethanol, to the enzyme 30 min after incubation with 4-hydroxy-2,3-trans-nonenal restores activity to the same extent as does the preincubation with G…
Interactions of the mitochondrial membrane rat liver d-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase with glass beads during adsorption chromatography
1991
D-3-Hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (BDH) is an NAD(+)-dependent dehydrogenase of the mitochondrial inner membrane involved in the energetic balance between the liver and peripheral organs in mammals. It allows the conversion of ketone bodies (acetoacetate and D-3-hydroxybutyrate) and it is one of the best documented lipid-requiring enzymes with a dependence on lecithins. After release of proteins from the membrane by phospholipase A2 treatment of salt-treated mitochondria, the rat liver enzyme is absorbed on controlled-pore glass beads. After batch washing, the enzyme, devoid of lipids (apoBDH), is specifically eluted at pH 8.05-8.15 with a 0.1 M Tris-1 M LiBr buffer under reducing condition…
Purification and characterization of leucine aminopeptidase from kidney bean cotyledons
1992
A leucine aminopeptidase (EC 3,4,11.1) was purified from cotyledons of resting kidney beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Processor) by acidic extraction, ammonium sulfate fractionation and chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, Sephacryl S-300, Mono Q HPLC and Superose HPLC columns. The yield of the 317-fold purified enzyme was 9%. On gel filtrations on Sephacryl S-300 and Superose HPLC the elution volumes of the enzyme corresponded to an M, of 360 000. The enzyme gave one band on native gel electrophoresis and an electrophoretic titration in an immobilized pH gradient gave a single curve with a pI of 4.8. Two bands were observed in an SDS-gel electrophoresis with Mr values of 58 000 and 60 000 bot…
Addition of reducing agent dithiothreitol improves 4-decanolide synthesis by the genus Sporidiobolus.
2000
Two species of the genus Sporidiobolus, S. johnsonii and S. ruinenii, were used to study the effect of the reducing agent, dithiothreitol (DTT), on 4-decanolide production using ricinoleic acid as the substrate. The results indicate that the addition of DTT into the cultures significantly enhanced 4-decanolide biosynthesis by the two species.
I corpi del virus
2020
In un articolo recentemente uscito in italiano, Bruno Latour spiega che il nuovo coronavirus illustra in modo eclatante come gli attori non umani irrompano nei nostri spazi collettivi esigendo profonde trasformazioni (e invitando a ripensare così noi stessi al loro interno). Al momento è impossibile valutare questi cambiamenti sul lungo periodo. È chiaro però che SARS-CoV-2 ha avuto subito effetti visibilissimi sulle istituzioni che danno forma al nostro universo collettivo: mercati finanziari, filiere produttive, sistemi sanitari, regolamenti, lockdown. Mi sembra che il luogo di convergenza di questi ambiti tematici sia il corpo, figura in cui si incrociano le isotopie mediche, economiche,…
Desobediencia: ¿Derecho o estrategia? A propósito de la reivindicación de la “política de desobediencia civil” en Catalunya
2018
RESUMEN: Aunque la tradicion de la desobediencia civil y, mas lejos aun, la del derecho a resistencia tiene antecedentes muy claros, hoy se ha producido un giro. El incremento del fenomeno de la indignacion y revuelta contra el sistema ha propiciado lo que algunos consideran estrategia de desobediencia e incluso politica de desobediencia. Em este articulo se discute esa hipotesis desde la experiencia que procura la experiencia vivida en los dos ultimos anos en Cataluna. ABSTRACT: We are possibly facing a turning point in the tradition of the right of resistance and even civil disobedience. From the globalization of the phenomenon of the indignados, the recourse to the strategy of disobedie…
EL derecho a la resistencia como garantía de los derechos en el sistema constitucional ecuatoriano
2017
RESUMEN: El presente articulo analiza el tratamiento juridico que el derecho a la resistencia recibe en Ecuador, viendo que formula plantea la Constitucion ecuatoriana de 2008 para compatibilizar resistencia y Derecho en el interior del ordenamiento juridico. Sin embargo, veremos tambien cuales son aquellos factores politicos y jurisprudenciales que han imposibilitado en la practica esta armonizacion y plantearemos algunas propuestas para desencallar tal situacion. ABSTRACT: This article will discuss the right to resistance and the legal treatment it is given in Ecuador. The analysis includes the formula that the Ecuadorian Constitution of 2008 proposes to reconcile resistance and Law withi…
