Macrocystis C. Agardh, Durvillaea Bory and Lessonia Bory are three brown seaweeds genera of commercial importance for Chilean fishermen. Macrocystis pyrifera (Linnaeus) C. Agardh (Laminariales, Laminariaceae) is one of the ...
Nitric oxide induces SOCS-1 expression in human monocytes in a TNFalpha-dependent manner
In contrast to the thoroughly characterized mechanisms of positive regulation within cytokine signaling pathways, our knowledge of negative feedback loops is comparatively sparse. We and others have previously reported ...
Are plant conservation and war compatible? The role of areas under dispute, military areas and military relics as nature reserves
[eng] Wars and military activities have severe impacts on humans and on biodiversity, which are briefly summarized. Some side effects, although not ethically acceptable as principles, produced, however, some opportunities ...
Genetic structure and seed germination in Portuguese populations of Cheirolophus uliginosus (Asteraceae): Implications for conservation strategies
Cheirolophus uliginosus is a threatened species, endemic to the Atlantic coast of the Iberian Peninsula, where it occupies a few restricted localities. In our study we analysed the patterns of cpDNA haplotypes variation ...
Karyological study of some E Iberian threatened plants
In the framework of cytogenetic studies of rare and threatened plant species of the Catalan Countries and surrounding territories, a karyological study of some taxa - three populations of Delphinium bolosii and the only ...
Case report: Diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis by Leishmania infantum in a patient undergoing immunosuppressive therapy: risk status in an endemic Mediterranean area.
This case report highlights the risk of severe cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) by Leishmania infantum in patients undergoing immunosuppressant therapy who either live in an endemic area or are visiting in the transmission ...
In vitro Antiplasmodial Activities of Alkaloids Isolated from Roots of Worsleya procera (Lem.) Traub (Amaryllidaceae)
A combined phytochemical, crystallographic and biological study of Worsleya procera roots was performed. Fifteen alkaloids were identified by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and seven of them were isolated. ...
Thermophilic Bacteria From Mexican Thermal Environments: Isolation and Potential Applications
Extremophiles are microorganisms that possess application possibilities in several industrial fields, including agricultural, chemical, laundry, pharmaceutical, food, petroleum and bioremediation. This work reports the ...
