Metabolic rearrangements in primary liver cancers: cause and consequences
Letizia Satriano,Monika Lewinska,Pedro Rodrigues,Jesus M. Banales,Jesus M. Banales,Jesper B. Andersen +5 more
TL;DR: The role of metabolic liver disruptions and the implications of these processes, emphasizing their clinical relevance and value in early diagnosis and prognosis and as putative therapeutic targets, are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuron-specific proteotoxicity of mutant ataxin-3 in C. elegans: rescue by the DAF-16 and HSF-1 pathways
Andreia Teixeira-Castro,Michael Ailion,Ana Jalles,Heather R. Brignull,João L. Vilaça,João L. Vilaça,Nuno Dias,Nuno Dias,Pedro Rodrigues,João Filipe Oliveira,Andreia Neves-Carvalho,Richard I. Morimoto,Patrícia Maciel +12 more
TL;DR: A new Caenorhabditis elegans model of Machado-Joseph disease pathogenesis is described and it is revealed that the sequences flanking the polyQ-stretch in ATXN3 have a dominant influence on cell-intrinsic neuronal factors that modulatepolyQ-mediated pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isc1p Plays a Key Role in Hydrogen Peroxide Resistance and Chronological Lifespan through Modulation of Iron Levels and Apoptosis
Teresa Almeida,Teresa Almeida,Marta Marques,Marta Marques,Dominik Mojzita,Maria Amélia Amorim,Maria Amélia Amorim,Rui D. Silva,Bruno Almeida,Pedro Rodrigues,Paula Ludovico,Stefan Hohmann,Pedro Moradas-Ferreira,Pedro Moradas-Ferreira,Manuela Côrte-Real,Vítor Costa,Vítor Costa +16 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that Isc1p plays an important role in the regulation of cellular redox homeostasis, through modulation of iron levels, and of apoptosis, as well as in oxidative stress resistance and chronological lifespan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factorial analysis of the trihalomethanes formation in water disinfection using chlorine
TL;DR: In this article, the factors that affect trihalomethane (THM) formation from the chlorination of aqueous solutions of hydrophobic fulvic acids (FA) were investigated in a prototype laboratorial simulation using factorial analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coupling an LES approach and a soot sectional model for the study of sooting turbulent non-premixed flames
TL;DR: In this paper, a coupled LES-sectional approach is used to analyze a turbulent non-premixed ethylene-air jet diffusion flame and results are validated by available experimental data.
