PPAR-alpha effects on the heart and other vascular tissues

Johan Auwerx

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-alpha is a member of a large nuclear receptor superfamily whose main role is to activate genes involved in fatty acid oxidation in the liver, heart, kidney, and skeletal muscle. While currently used mainly ...

Relationships among testate amoebae (Protozoa), vegetation and water chemistry in five Sphagnum-dominated peatlands in Europe

Alexandre Buttler, Edward Mitchell

To study the relationships between groups of organisms and the degree to which these relationships are consistent across major climatic gradients, we analysed the testate amoeba (Protozoa) communities, vegetation and water chemistry of one peatland in five ...

Size and form in efficient transportation networks

Andrea Rinaldo, Amos Maritan

Many biological processes, from cellular metabolism to population dynamics, are characterized by allometric scaling (power-law) relationships between size and rate(1-10). An outstanding question is whether typical allometric scaling relationships-the power ...

Unidirectional steady state rates of central metabolism enzymes measured simultaneously in a living plant tissue

David Lyndon Emsley

The unidirectional steady state reaction rates of several enzymes and metabolic fluxes of distinct processes were measured simultaneously in hypoxic maize root tips using two-dimensional phosphorus NMR exchange spectroscopy. A single spectrum monitors ATP ...

Community patterns of vascular plants, mosses and testate amoebae along the bog-fen gradient reveal different responses of aboveground and belowground communities to ecological gradients

Edward Mitchell, Mariusz Lamentowicz

Vegetation responses to environmental gradients in peatlands are well documented but little is known about how these patterns compare with those of soil organisms. We studied the vegetation, testate amoebae, and abiotic variables (depth of the water table ...
