Ikääntymisen vaikutukset lihaksen ja jänteen suhteelliseen venymään passiivisen venytyksen aikana
2012
Tämä tutkimus tarkasteli ikääntymisen vaikutuksia sisemmän kaksoiskantalihaksen, leveän kantalihaksen ja etummaisen säärilihaksen mekaanisiin ominaisuuksiin passiivisen venytyksen aikana. Oletusta ikääntymisen aiheuttamasta muutoksesta lihaksen ja jänteen suhteellisessa venymässä tutkittiin ultraäänen avulla. Lisäksi tarkasteltiin, miten pitkäaikainen liikunnan harrastaminen vaikuttaa ikääntyneen lihas-jännekompleksin ominaisuuksiin. Koehenkilöryhmät olivat nuoret (N=12; 27,8 ± 3,2 v), ikääntyneet (N=15; 69,4 ± 5,3 v) ja veteraaniurheilijat (N16; 73,3 ± 2,8 v). Mittausasetelmassa koehenkilöiden oikea jalka kiinnitettiin jalkadynamometriin, jossa säären lihaksia venytettiin nilkkakulmaa muut…
Formaciones sociales y opresión en Marx
2018
The text explains the difference between Marx?s concept of «oppression» and others as «coercion» by Durkheim or «domination» by Weber. The article then establishes, in a methodical way, the centrality of a passage from Capital, in which three different theories on «oppression» appear. It?s explained that two of them are rather a philosophical antinomy. The other, relative to the heteronomy of social time, can be completed by defining the heteronomy of social space, which gives it analytical virtuality. Some examples are given.
Interstitial Telomeric-like Repeats (ITR) in Seed Plants as Assessed by Molecular Cytogenetic Techniques: A Review.
2021
The discovery of telomeric repeats in interstitial regions of plant chromosomes (ITRs) through molecular cytogenetic techniques was achieved several decades ago. However, the information is scattered and has not been critically evaluated from an evolutionary perspective. Based on the analysis of currently available data, it is shown that ITRs are widespread in major evolutionary lineages sampled. However, their presence has been detected in only 45.6% of the analysed families, 26.7% of the sampled genera, and in 23.8% of the studied species. The number of ITR sites greatly varies among congeneric species and higher taxonomic units, and range from one to 72 signals. ITR signals mostly occurs…
Echovirus 1 entry into polarized Caco-2 cells depends on dynamin, cholesterol, and cellular factors associated with macropinocytosis
2013
Enteroviruses invade their hosts by crossing the intestinal epithelium. We have examined the mechanism by which echovirus 1 (EV1) enters polarized intestinal epithelial cells (Caco-2). Virus binds to VLA-2 on the apical cell surface and moves rapidly to early endosomes. Using inhibitory drugs, dominant negative mutants, and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to block specific endocytic pathways, we found that virus entry requires dynamin GTPase and membrane cholesterol but is independent of both clathrin- and caveolin-mediated endocytosis. Instead, infection requires factors commonly associated with macropinocytosis, including amiloride-sensitive Na /H exchange, protein kinase C, and C-termina…
Acylative Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of Secondary Alcohols: Tandem Catalysis by HyperBTM and Bäckvall's Ruthenium Complex.
2021
Non-enzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of secondary alcohols by enantioselective acylation using an isothiourea-derived HyperBTM catalyst and racemization of slowly reacting alcohol by Backvall's ruthenium complex is reported. The DKR approach features high enantioselectivities (up to 99:1), employs easy-to-handle crystalline 4-nitrophenyl isobutyrate as the acylating reagent, and proceeds at room temperature and under an ambient atmosphere. The stereoinduction model featuring cation-π system interactions between the acylated HyperBTM catalyst and π electrons of an alcohol aryl subunit has been elaborated by DFT calculations.
Light-induced, site-selective isomerization of glyoxylic acid in solid xenon
2014
Abstract The isomerization of glyoxylic acid (GA) and its water complex was studied in a low temperature xenon matrix. The aim of these studies was to understand how xenon environment affects the cis-trans GA interconversion upon near infrared irradiation. In solid xenon, the GA conformers are embedded in two different matrix sites. These show up as different vibrational bands of GA that exhibit different kinetic rates of isomerization. Upon complexation with water, the isomerization process slows down. Xenon matrix appears not to affect energy relaxation process via intramolecular or intermolecular hydrogen bond as compared with previous experiments in an argon.
Analysis of the Cellular Roles of MOCS3 Identifies a MOCS3-Independent Localization of NFS1 at the Tips of the Centrosome
2019
The deficiency of the molybdenum cofactor (Moco) is an autosomal recessive disease, which leads to the loss of activity of all molybdoenzymes in humans with sulfite oxidase being the essential protein. Moco deficiency generally results in death in early childhood. Moco is a sulfur-containing cofactor synthesized in the cytosol with the sulfur being provided by a sulfur relay system composed of the L-cysteine desulfurase NFS1, MOCS3, and MOCS2A. Human MOCS3 is a dual-function protein that was shown to play an important role in Moco biosynthesis and in the mcm(5)s(2) U thio modifications of nucleosides in cytosolic tRNAs for Lys, Gln, and Glu. In this study, we constructed a homozygous MOCS3 …
Gold(I)-catalyzed intermolecular oxyarylation of alkynes: unexpected regiochemistry in the alkylation of arenes.
2009
The reaction between acetylenes and sulfoxides, studied as a test case for gold-catalyzed intermolecular addition, provides the oxyarylation compounds 3 in good yields. Unpredictably, in all cases a single regioisomer arising from the electrophilic aromatic alkylation at the position adjacent to the sulfur atom is obtained instead of the expected Friedel−Crafts regioisomer. A new concerted mechanism based on DFT calculations is proposed to account for the products in this intermolecular gold(I)-catalyzed reaction.
Enhanced Permeability and Retention-like Extravasation of Nanoparticles from the Vasculature into Tuberculosis Granulomas in Zebrafish and Mouse Mode…
2018
The enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect is the only described mechanism enabling nanoparticles (NPs) flowing in blood to reach tumors by a passive targeting mechanism. Here, using the transparent zebrafish model infected with Mycobacterium marinum we show that an EPR-like process also occurs allowing different types of NPs to extravasate from the vasculature to reach granulomas that assemble during tuberculosis (TB) infection. PEGylated liposomes and other NP types cross endothelial barriers near infection sites within minutes after injection and accumulate close to granulomas. Although similar to 100 and 190 nm NPs concentrated most in granulomas, even similar to 700 nm liposo…
<i>Geminal</i> Parahydrogen-Induced Polarization: Accumulating Long-Lived Singlet Order on Methylene Proton Pairs
2020
Abstract. In the majority of hydrogenative PHIP (Parahydrogen Induced Polarization) experiments, the hydrogen molecule undergoes pairwise cis-addition to an unsaturated precursor to occupy vicinal positions on the product molecule. However, some ruthenium-based hydrogenation catalysts induce geminal hydrogenation, leading to a reaction product in which the twohydrogen atoms are transferred to the same carbon center, forming a methylene (CH2) group. The singlet order of parahydrogen is substantially retained over the geminal hydrogenation reaction, giving rise to a singlet-hyperpolarized CH2 group. Although the T1 relaxation times of the methylene protons are often short, the singlet order h…
