Sulforaphane protects cortical neurons against 5-S-cysteinyl-dopamine-induced toxicity through the activation of ERK1/2, Nrf-2 and the upregulation of detoxification enzymes
(2010-04)The degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra has been linked to the formation of the endogenous neurotoxin 5-S-cysteinyl-dopamine. Sulforaphane (SFN), an isothiocyanate derived from the corresponding ... -
Sum-Rate and Power Scaling of Massive MIMO Systems with Channel Aging
(2015-10-26)This paper investigates the achievable sum-rate of massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems in the presence of channel aging. For the uplink, by assuming that the base station (BS) deploys maximum ratio combining ... -
Sunlands irrigation scheme headworks upgrading, hydraulics of the water distribution system.
(Institution of Engineers, 1984-09-01)High salinity levels on the River Murray have caused damage to irrigated crops due to salt toxicity. The toxic effects can be mitigated by irrigating at night only. On Sunlands irrigation scheme (700 hectares) the pumping ... -

Superbubble dynamics in globular cluster infancy. I. How do globular clusters first lose their cold gas?
(2012-10-05)The picture of the early evolution of globular clusters has been significantly revised in recent years. Current scenarios require at least two generations of stars of which the first generation (1G), and therefore also the ... -
Superbubble dynamics in globular cluster infancy. II. Consequences for secondary star formation in the context of self-enrichment via fast-rotating massive stars
(2013-04-12)Context. The self-enrichment scenario for globular clusters (GC) requires large amounts of residual gas after the initial formation of the first stellar generation. Recently, we found that supernovae may not be able to ... -
