Fibrocytes are a potential source of lung fibroblasts in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by the accumulation of fibroblasts/myofibroblasts and aberrant remodeling of the lung parenchyma. However, the sources of fibroblasts in IPF lungs are unclear. Fibrocytes are circulating progenitors of fibroblasts implicated in wound healing and fibrosis. In this study we evaluated evidence for the presence of fibrocytes in the lung of patients with i

Sex differences in sand lizard telomere inheritance: paternal epigenetic effects increases telomere heritability and offspring survival

BACKGROUND: To date, the only estimate of the heritability of telomere length in wild populations comes from humans. Thus, there is a need for analysis of natural populations with respect to how telomeres evolve. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here, we show that telomere length is heritable in free-ranging sand lizards, Lacerta agilis. More importantly, heritability estimates analysed within, a

Systematics and historical biogeography of the Old World butterfly subtribe Mycalesina (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae)

BACKGROUND: Butterflies of the subtribe Mycalesina have radiated successfully in almost all habitat types in Africa, Madagascar, the Indian subcontinent, Indo-China and Australasia. Studies aimed at understanding the reasons behind the evolutionary success of this spectacular Old World butterfly radiation have been hampered by the lack of a stable phylogeny for the group. Here, we have reconstruct

Johannes Paulus II som filosof

Artikeln är en populärt hållen översikt och sammanfattning av påven Johannes Paulus II:s/Karol Wojtylas filosofi. Han var skolad i och influerad av såväl thomismen som fenomenologin och bidrog med ett eget verk "The Acting Person" i den fenomenologiska traditionen.

Kulturarvsteologi för bruk

Diskuterar problem och möjligheter i Svenska kyrkans arbete med kultuarvsfrågor. Osynliggörandet av kyrkans immaterialla kulturarv lyfts fram tillsammans med en kritik av tendenser att även inom kyrkan återupprepa den åtskillnad mellan kultur och religion som återfinns redan i kulturarvsbegreppets historia.
