9-cis-Retinoic acid enhances fatty acid-induced expression of the liver fatty acid-binding protein gene
1997
The role of retinoic acids (RA) on liver fatty acid- binding protein (L-FABP) expression was investigated in the well differentiated FAO rat hepatoma cell line. 9-cis-Retinoic acid (9-ci's-RA) specifically enhanced L-FABP mRNA levels in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The higher induction was found 6 h after addition of 10 -6 M 9-CK-RA in the medium. RA also enhanced further both L-FABP mRNA levels and cytosolic L-FABP protein content induced by oleic acid. The retinoid X receptor (RXR) and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), which are known to be activated, respectively, by 9-c/s-RA and long chain fatty acid (LCFA), co-operated to bind specifically the peroxisome prol…
Usurarian contracts. Current jurisprudencial perspective
2018
El objetivo de este trabajo es destacar las novedades presentadas por la Jurisprudencia sobre contratos usurarios celebrados entre las empresas bancarias y sus clientes. La coexistencia de la Ley de Usura con las regulaciones para la protección de los consumidores contra cláusulas abusivas no ha menoscabado la vigencia de ley, pero sus diferencias en cuanto a la declaración de nulidad generan incertidumbre, por lo que sería conveniente una mayor armonización. The objective of this work is to highlight the novelties presented by the Jurisprudence on usurious contracts concluded between banking companies and their clients. The coexistence of the Usury Law with the regulations for the protecti…
Solid-state mechanochemical synthesis of multinary metal halide semiconductors for optoelectronics: From powder to thin film
2020
En la última década, las perovskitas de haluro de plomo, así como otros haluros de metales múltiples, incluidas las alternativas sin plomo, han demostrado ser materiales prometedores para su uso en optoelectrónica. Por lo tanto, se buscan activamente nuevas formas de producir semiconductores de alta pureza a gran escala. Por tanto, el objetivo principal de esta tesis doctoral es el desarrollo de perovskitas y semiconductores relacionados utilizando métodos sin disolventes. Además, con la perspectiva del uso de dichos materiales en optoelectrónica a escala industrial, el foco está puesto en trabajar con materiales benignos para el desarrollo de alternativas a las perovskitas tóxicas. La sínt…

Electromagnetic interactions of light hadrons in covariant chiral perturbation theory
2017
Las interacciones entre hadrones ligeros y campos de fotones son importantes para el estudio de la estructura de la materia y de la interacción fuerte. Sus propiedades fundamentales son descritas por la cromodinámica quántica (QCD). A energı́as elevadas, esta teorı́a ya ha sido bien comprobada con métodos perturbativos que tienen los quarks y gluones como grados de libertad. Sin embargo, a bajas energı́as, QCD es no-perturbativa y quedan muchos detalles por entender. Estas on precisamente las energı́as necesarias para describir interacciones entre hadrones a distancias superiores a su tamaño. Procesos que involucran interacciones con hadrones han sido extensamente estudiados a lo largo de l…
Scattering Studies with Low-Energy Kaon-Proton Femtoscopy in Proton-Proton Collisions at the LHC
2020
The study of the strength and behaviour of the antikaon-nucleon ($\mathrm{\overline{K}N}$) interaction constitutes one of the key focuses of the strangeness sector in low-energy Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). In this letter a unique high-precision measurement of the strong interaction between kaons and protons, close and above the kinematic threshold, is presented. The femtoscopic measurements of the correlation function at low pair-frame relative momentum of (K$^+$ p $\oplus$ K$^-$ $\overline{\mathrm{p}}$) and (K$^-$ p $\oplus$ K$^+$ $\overline{\mathrm{p}}$) pairs measured in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 5, 7 and 13 TeV are reported. A structure observed around a relative momentum of 58 Me…
Measurement of spin-orbital angular momentum interactions in relativistic heavy-ion collisions
2020
The first evidence of spin alignment of vector mesons ($K^{*0}$ and $\phi$) in heavy-ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is reported. The spin density matrix element $\rho_{00}$ is measured at midrapidity ($|y| <$ 0.5) in Pb-Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy ($\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$) of 2.76 TeV with the ALICE detector. $\rho_{00}$ values are found to be less than 1/3 (1/3 implies no spin alignment) at low transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T} <$ 2 GeV/$c$) for $K^{*0}$ and $\phi$ at a level of 3$\sigma$ and 2$\sigma$, respectively. No significant spin alignment is observed for the $K^0_S$ meson (spin = 0) in Pb-Pb collisions and for the vector mesons in $pp$ collisions. The meas…

Nanoincorporation of curcumin in polymer-glycerosomes and evaluation of their in vitro–in vivo suitability as pulmonary delivery systems
2015
The aim of this work was to deliver curcumin into the lungs by incorporating it into innovative vesicles obtained using phospholipids and high concentrations of glycerol (50%, v/v), so called glycerosomes, which were then combined with two polymers: sodium hyaluronate and trimethyl chitosan to form polymer-glycerosomes. These systems were prepared without the use of organic solvents or acidic solutions and their physico-chemical properties were fully characterized. Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy and small-angle X-ray scattering showed that both glycerosomes and polymer-glycerosomes were spherical, mainly unilamellar and of nanometric size (65–112 nm). The vesicles were readily n…
