Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In vitro results suggest that these four plants, traditionally used by small farmers in Western Africa, do possess anti-parasitic properties, although these effects remain to be confirmed through in vivo studies.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The compact representation of incomplete probabilistic knowledge which can be encountered in risk evaluation problems, for instance in environmental studies is considered and the respective appropriateness of pairs of cumulative distributions, continuous possibility distributions or discrete random sets for representing information about the mean value, the mode, the median and other fractiles of ill-known probability distributions is discussed.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the positions and shapes of the bow shock and magnetic pile-up boundary, MPB, have been derived and modelled, using curve-fitting techniques, and the results obtained from the mixing of the Phobos 2 and Mars Global Surveyor, MGS data bases were compared with the ones obtained previously.

TL;DR: The reduction of the LaIII tricyclopentadienide complex by K and [18]crown-6 or [2,2-2]cryptand produced thermally stable mononuclear crystalline lanthanate(II) salts.
Abstract: Getting down to business: Reduction of the LaIII tricyclopentadienide complex [LaCp′′3] (Cp′′=η5-1,3-(SiMe3)2C5H3) by K and [18]crown-6 or [2,2,2]cryptand produced thermally stable mononuclear crystalline lanthanate(II) salts. The La +2 oxidation state in these complexes was confirmed both in solution (EPR) and the solid state (EPR, SQUID, X-ray diffraction) and was supported by a computational study.

TL;DR: It is shown that atrial- and B-type natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP respectively) stimulate lipolysis in human fat cells through a cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) signaling pathway independent of cAMP production and PKA activity.
Abstract: Human fat cell lipolysis was, until recently, thought to be mediated exclusively by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA)-regulated pathway under the control of catecholamines and insulin. We have shown that atrial- and B-type natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP respectively) stimulate lipolysis in human fat cells through a cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) signaling pathway independent of cAMP production and PKA activity. Pharmacological or physiological (exercise) increases in plasma ANP levels stimulate lipid mobilization in humans. This pathway becomes important during chronic treatment with beta-adrenoceptor antagonists, which inhibit catecholamine-induced lipolysis but enhance cardiac ANP release. These findings have metabolic implications and point to potential problems when natriuretic peptide secretion is altered or during therapeutic use of recombinant BNP.
