Botany, Sexuality and Women's Writing 1760-1830: From Modest Shoot to Forward Plant
(Manchester University Press, 2007-11)
Neurabin-I is phosphorylated by Cdk5 : Implications for neuronal morphogenesis and cortical migration
(2007-11-01)
The correct morphology and migration of neurons, which is essential for the normal development of the nervous system, is enabled by the regulation of their cytoskeletal elements. We reveal that Neurabin-I, a neuronal-specific ...
Old soil carbon is more temperature sensitive than the young in an agricultural field
(2007-11-01)
Changes in the carbon stock of soil in response to climate change would significantly affect the atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration and consequently climate. The isotopes of carbon provide a means to study the ...
(70)Ge(p,gamma)(71)As and (76)Ge(p,n)(76)As cross sections for the astrophysical p process : Sensitivity of the optical proton potential at low energies
(2007-11)
The cross sections of the (70)Ge(p,gamma)(71)As and (76)Ge(p,n)(76)As reactions have been measured with the activation method in the Gamow window for the astrophysical p process. The experiments were carried out at the Van ...
The Copyright Clink Conundrum : Is Chan Nai-Ming the Modern Day Josef K.?
(2007-11-01)
A study of the plight of the unfortunate3 Mr Chan Nai-Ming of Hong Kong leads the authors to conclude that a by-product of the digital age is the increasing criminalisation of copyright law. Increasingly, there is a worldwide ...
Defense against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in Arabidopsis is dependent on jasmonic acid, salicylic acid, and ethylene signaling
(2007-11)
Genotypic differences in susceptibility of Arabidopsis thaliana to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum have not been reported due to the extreme susceptibility of this cruciferous plant. To overcome this limitation, we have established ...
Hypermobility and the hypermobility syndrome
(2007-11)
Hypermobile joints by definition display a range of movement that is considered excessive, taking into consideration the age, gender and ethnic background of the individual. Joint hypermobility, when associated with symptoms ...
The peri-electrode space is a significant element of the electrode-brain interface in deep brain stimulation : a computational study
(2007-10-19)
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an increasingly used clinical treatment for various neurological disorders, particularly movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease. However, the mechanism by which these high frequency ...
Inhibition of the formation of the neurotoxin 5-S-cysteinyl-dopamine by polyphenols
(2007-10-19)
The death of nigral neurons in Parkinson's disease is thought to involve the formation of the endogenous neurotoxin, 5-S-cysteinyl-dopamine. In the present study, we show that the polyphenols, (+)-catechin and caffeic acid, ...
