N-acetylcysteine protects striated muscle in a model of compartment syndrome
(Springer Nature, 2010-03-23)Background To avoid ischemic necrosis, compartment syndrome is a surgical emergency treated with decompression once identified. A potentially lethal, oxidant-driven reperfusion injury occurs after decompression. N-acetylcysteine ... -
N-glycosylation of mouse trail-r and human trail-r1 enhances trail-induced death
(Springer Nature, 2017-02-10)APO2L/TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) induces death of tumor cells through two agonist receptors, TRAIL-R1 and TRAIL-R2. We demonstrate here that N-linked glycosylation (N-glyc) plays also an important ... -
N-wasp is a novel regulator of hair-follicle cycling that controls antiproliferative tgf pathways
(The Company of Biologists, 2009-12-16)N-WASP is a cytoplasmic molecule mediating Arp2/3 nucleated actin polymerization. Mice with a keratinocyte-specific deletion of the gene encoding N-WASP showed normal interfollicular epidermis, but delayed hair-follicle ... -
Nano-textured self-assembled aligned collagen hydrogels promote directional neurite guidance and overcome inhibition by myelin associated glycoprotein
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2011-01-01)The development of nerve guidance conduits is constantly evolving as the need arises for therapies for spinal cord injury. In addition to providing a path for regrowing axons to reconnect with their appropriate targets, ... -
Nanomaterials and biomaterials in electrochemical arrays for protein detection
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2014-01-01)Nanomaterials and biomaterials are important components of new electrochemical arrays designed for sensitive detection of proteins in biological fluids. Such multiplexed protein arrays are predicted to have an important ... -
Nanoparticle generation during laser ablation and laser-induced liquefaction
(Elsevier BV, 2011-01-01)Recently short-pulse laser sources have been investigated as a potential method for nanoparticle synthesis. Deposited aluminium, nickel and gold nanoparticles generated during nano-and femto-second laser ablation were ... -
Nanoparticles in boreal forest and coastal environment: a comparison of observations and implications of the nucleation mechanism
(Copernicus GmbH, 2010-08-02)The detailed mechanism of secondary new particle formation in the atmosphere is still under debate. It is proposed that particle formation happens via activation of 1-2 nm atmospheric neutral molecular clusters and/or large ... -
Nasal nitric oxide levels in hiv infection: a cross-sectional study
(Hindawi Limited, 2018-01-01)Introduction. Low levels of nasal NO have been associated with increased propensity to rhinosinusitis and respiratory tract infections. Our objective was to describe nasalNOlevels in HIV-infected individuals versus healthy ... -
National guidelines for analysis of cerebrospinal fluid for bilirubin in suspected subarachnoid haemorrhage

Nationalism, war and social cohesion
(Informa UK Limited, 2011-01-01)Most studies of nationalism and war focus on the direct causal relationship between the two. Whereas the naturalist theories see strong national attachments as a primary cause of war, the formativist approaches understand ... -
Natural and semisynthetic analogues of manadoperoxide b reveal new structural requirements for trypanocidal activity
(MDPI AG, 2013-08-28)Chemical analysis of the Indonesian sponge Plakortis cfr. lita afforded two new analogues of the potent trypanocidal agent manadoperoxide B (1), namely 12-isomanadoperoxide B (2) and manadoperoxidic acid B (3). These ... -
Natural and synthetic materials for self-renewal, long-term maintenance, and differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015-04-13)Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have attracted considerable attention from the public, clinicians, and scientists since their discovery in 2006, and raised huge expectations for regenerative medicine. One of the ... -
Natural genetic variation for morphological and molecular determinants of plant growth and yield
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2016-03-24)Although a yield ceiling has been reached for several major crops, enhancements are required to keep up with the demands of the increasing population. Here, traits which could help tackle this issue are discussed.The rates ... -

Ncoa3 coactivator is a transcriptional target of xbp1 and regulates perk–eif2α–atf4 signalling in breast cancer
(Springer Nature, 2016-04-25)XBP1 is a multitasking transcription factor and a key component of the unfolded protein response (UPR). Despite the wealth of knowledge about the role of XBP1 in luminal/ER-positive breast cancer, not much is known about ... -
Near-ir spectroscopy of young stars in the braid nebula star formation region in cygnus ob7
(IOP Publishing, 2008-12-19)We present 1.4-2.5 mu m integral field spectroscopy of 16 stars in the Braid Nebula star formation region in Cygnus OB7. These data form one aspect of a large-scale multiwavelength survey aimed at determining an unbiased ... -
Near-surface diurnal warming simulations: validation with high resolution profile measurements
(Copernicus GmbH, 2013-11-19)Sea surface temperature (SST) is an important property for governing the exchange of energy between the ocean and the atmosphere. Common in situ methods of measuring SST often require a cool-skin and warm-layer adjustment ... -
Nearby galaxies in the 2 μm all sky survey. i.k-band luminosity functions
