Oxytocic plant cyclotides as templates for peptide g protein-coupled receptor ligand design
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013-11-18)Cyclotides are plant peptides comprising a circular backbone and three conserved disulfide bonds that confer them with exceptional stability. They were originally discovered in Oldenlandia affinis based on their use in ... -
P53-mediated induction of noxa and p53aip1 requires nfκb
(Informa UK Limited, 2010-03-01)The intricate regulation of cell survival and cell death is critical for the existence of both normal and transformed cells. Two factors central to these processes are p53 and NF kappa B, with both factors having ascribed ... -

Pain perception in people with down syndrome: a synthesis of clinical and experimental research
(Frontiers Media SA, 2015-07-30)People with an intellectual disability experience both acute and chronic pain with at least the same frequency as the general population. However, considerably less is known about the pain perception of people with Down ... -
Palb2,chek2andatmrare variants and cancer risk: data from cogs
(BMJ, 2016-09-05)Background The rarity of mutations in PALB2, CHEK2 and ATM make it difficult to estimate precisely associated cancer risks. Population-based family studies have provided evidence that at least some of these mutations are ... -
Paper-based electrochemical immunoassay for rapid, inexpensive cancer biomarker protein detection
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2014-01-01)Inexpensive, reusable electrochemical sensor chips were fabricated from gold CDs. All reagents were loaded onto a paper disk sequentially, then placed on the chip to detect cancer biomarker prostate specific antigen (PSA) ... -
Paper-based electrochemiluminescent screening for genotoxic activity in the environment
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2013-02-19)A low cost, microfluidic paper electrochemical device (mu PED) was fabricated using screen printing of electrodes and heat transfer of patterned wax paper onto filter paper. The mu PED features films of a light-emitting ... -
Paper-based microfluidic biofuel cell operating under glucose concentrations within physiological range
(Elsevier BV, 2017-04-01)This work addresses the development of a compact paper-based enzymatic microfluidic glucose/O-2 fuel cell that can operate using a very limited sample volume (approximate to 35 mu l) and explores the energy generated by ... -
Parallel astronomical data processing with python: recipes for multicore machines

Parallel decadal variability of inferred water temperatures for northern and southern hemisphere intermediate water masses
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-02-20)We use a novel proxy (growth rates of long-lived deep water fish, orange roughy) to reconstruct inferred water temperatures of intermediate water masses in both Northern and Southern Hemispheres since the mid-1800s. The ... -

Parameter search algorithms for microwave radar-based breast imaging: focal quality metrics as fitness functions
(MDPI AG, 2017-12-06)Inaccurate estimation of average dielectric properties can have a tangible impact on microwave radar-based breast images. Despite this, recent patient imaging studies have used a fixed estimate although this is known to ... -
Parameterizing air-sea gas transfer velocity with dissipation
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-04-01)The air-sea gas transfer velocity k is frequently estimated as an empirical function of wind speed. However, it is widely recognized that k depends on processes other than wind speed alone. The small-eddy model, which ... -
Parg is dispensable for recovery from transient replicative stress but required to prevent detrimental accumulation of poly(adp-ribose) upon prolonged replicative stress
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-06-06)Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is involved in numerous biological processes including DNA repair, transcription and cell death. Cellular levels of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) are regulated by PAR polymerases (PARPs) and the degrading ... -
Parkin disease
(American Medical Association (AMA), 2013-05-01)Importance: Mutations in the gene encoding parkin (PARK2) are the most common cause of autosomal recessive juvenile-onset and young-onset parkinsonism. The few available detailed neuropathologic reports suggest that ... -
Part of the solution or part of the problem? reflections on teaching participatory asset mapping
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2015-11-06)Community asset mapping is widely employed in a diverse range of community development programmes, including work with indigenous groups. Here we discuss the outcome of a participatory asset mapping training programme we ... -
Part-time work and health among older workers in ireland and britain
(Informa UK Limited, 2011-12-01)Part-Time (PT) work is viewed as a viable option for people who wish to have a gradual transition to retirement. From a policy viewpoint, this may help to alleviate some labour supply shortages and fiscal pressures, ...
