Pulcaffeate, a Trimeric Caffeic Acid Derivative from Bourreria pulchra

The trimeric caffeic acid derivative pulcaffeate (1) was isolated from the organic crude extract of the roots of Bourreria pulchra (Boraginaceae). The biosynthesis of 1 appears to involve an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction between a cyclohexa-1,3-diene intermediate, generated by the oxidation of the aromatic ring of a cinnamic acid unit, and the conjugated double bond of a caffeic acid unit.

The evolutionary maintenance of ancient recombining sex chromosomes in the ostrich

Sex chromosomes have evolved repeatedly across the tree of life and often exhibit extreme size dimorphism due to genetic degeneration of the sex-limited chromosome (e.g. the W chromosome of some birds and Y chromosome of mammals). However, in some lineages, ancient sex-limited chromosomes have escaped degeneration. Here, we study the evolutionary maintenance of sex chromosomes in the ostrich (Stru

Activity recovery for differently shaped objects in quantitative SPECT

Objective. The aim was to theoretically and experimentally investigate recovery in SPECT images with objects of different shapes. Furthermore, the accuracy of volume estimation by thresholding was studied for those shapes. Approach. Nine spheres, nine oblate spheroids, and nine prolate spheroids phantom inserts were used, of which the six smaller spheres were part of the NEMA IEC body phantom and

Diverse Lava Flow Morphologies in the Stratigraphy of the Jezero Crater Floor

We present a combined geomorphologic, multispectral, and geochemical analysis of crater floor rocks in Jezero crater based on data obtained by the Mast Camera Zoom and SuperCam instruments onboard the NASA Mars 2020 Perseverance rover. The combined data from this analysis together with the results of a comparative study with geologic sites on Earth allows us to interpret the origins of rocks expos

An mTRAN-mRNA interaction mediates mitochondrial translation initiation in plants

Plant mitochondria represent the largest group of respiring organelles on the planet. Plant mitochondrial messenger RNAs (mRNAs) lack Shine-Dalgarno-like ribosome-binding sites, so it is unknown how plant mitoribosomes recognize mRNA. We show that “mitochondrial translation factors” mTRAN1 and mTRAN2 are land plant–specific proteins, required for normal mitochondrial respiration chain biogenesis.

Evidence of Unrecognized Indoor Exposure to Toxic Chlorophenols and Odorous Chloroanisoles in Denmark, Finland, and Norway

Production and use of chlorophenols (CPs) are being phased out around the globe, but with considerable lag in some highly populated countries. The process could be incentivized by leading countries sharing their experiences on problems that occurred, including the built environment. We previously reported that Swedish industry and authorities promoted CPs, including pentachlorophenol (PCP), as wooProduction and use of chlorophenols (CPs) are being phased out around the globe, but with considerable lag in some highlypopulated countries.

Comparison of Group-Level and Individualized Brain Regions for Measuring Change in Longitudinal Tau Positron Emission Tomography in Alzheimer Disease

Importance: Longitudinal tau positron emission tomography (PET) is a relevant outcome in clinical trials evaluating disease-modifying therapies in Alzheimer disease (AD). A key unanswered question is whether the use of participant-specific (individualized) regions of interest (ROIs) is superior to conventional approaches where the same ROI (group-level) is used for each participant. Objective: To

BET Inhibition as a Rational Therapeutic Strategy for Invasive Lobular Breast Cancer

PURPOSE: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is a subtype of breast cancer accounting for 10% of breast tumors. The majority of patients are treated with endocrine therapy; however, endocrine resistance is common in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer and new therapeutic strategies are needed. Bromodomain and extraterminal inhibitors (BETi) are effective in diverse types of breast cancer but the

PSI-PSYCHO SCHIZOPHRENIA IMAGING- Hjärnavbildning vid Schizofreni. : Del 4: Ämnesomsättning och Schizofreni

4-5.1 Sammanfattning av Glutamat och GABA vid Schizofreni1H-MRS och kronisk schizofreni1H-MRS visar att alla Schizofreni patienter hade ett signifikant lägre N-AcetylAsparagin-syra(NAA) till Kreatin(Cr) nivåförhållande i frontalloben än kontrollerna. Resultaten indikerar att det finns ett samband mellan det Glutamat-erga systemet och patofysiologin vid Schizofreni. (Szulc et al., 2013).GABA och gl

Role of Orthostatic Hypotension in the Development of Dementia in People with and Without Cardiovascular Disease

Background: Orthostatic hypotension (OH) has been associated with elevated risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and dementia risk. To better understand the OH-dementia association, we assessed the associations of OH with CVD and subsequent dementia in older adults and considered the temporality of CVD and dementia onset. Methods: This 15-year population-based cohort study included, at baseline,

Inter-Rater Agreement for Diagnosing Adenomyosis Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Transvaginal Ultrasonography

Our aim was to compare the inter-rater agreement about transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with regard to diagnosing adenomyosis and for assessing various predefined imaging features of adenomyosis, in the same set of women. The study cohort included 51 women, prospectively, consecutively recruited based on a clinical suspicion of adenomyosis. MRIs and TVS vide

Performance of Galectin-9 for Identification of HIV Viremia in Adults Receiving Antiretroviral Therapy in a Resource-Limited Setting

Background: Targeted viral load (VL) testing has been proposed for antiretroviral treatment (ART) monitoring in resource-limited settings. In this study, we have investigated the performance of the host biomarker galectin-9 (Gal-9), alone and in combination with interferon-γ-inducible protein 10 (IP-10), in identifying individuals at increased likelihood of viremia during ART.Setting:Cohort of HIV

Inferring the probability distribution over strain tensors in polycrystals from diffraction based measurements

Polycrystals illuminated by high-energy X-rays or neutrons produce diffraction patterns in which the measured diffraction peaks encode the individual single crystal strain states. While state of the art X-ray and neutron diffraction approaches can be used to routinely recover per grain mean strain tensors, less work has been produced on the recovery of higher order statistics of the strain distrib

On mesoscale modeling of concrete: Role of heterogeneities on local stresses, strains, and representative volume element

The mechanics of concrete can be understood comprehensively only if its heterogeneous microstructure is considered in experiments and simulations. We combine mesoscale modeling, in-situ X-ray computed tomography imaging, and in-situ 3D X-ray diffraction measurements for one of the first times to investigate the role of heterogeneities on macroscopic and microscopic responses in concrete. The focus

xrd_simulator: 3D X-ray diffraction simulation software supporting 3D polycrystalline microstructure morphology descriptions

An open source Python package named xrd_simulator, capable of simulating geometrical interactions between a monochromatic X-ray beam and a polycrystalline microstructure, is described and demonstrated. The software can simulate arbitrary intragranular lattice variations of single crystals embedded within a multiphase 3D aggregate by making use of a tetrahedral mesh representation where each elemen
