Adrb3 adrenergic receptor is a key regulator of human myometrial apoptosis and inflammation during chorioamnionitis1
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2008-03-01)The pathophysiology underlying preterm labor triggered by inflammatory conditions such as chorioamnionitis remains largely unclear. It has already been suggested that beta-3 adrenergic (ADRB3) agonists might be of interest ... -
Adsorption and conformations of lysozyme and α-lactalbumin at a water-octane interface
(AIP Publishing, 2017-11)As proteins contain both hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acids, they will readily adsorb onto interfaces between water and hydrophobic fluids such as oil. This adsorption normally causes changes in the protein structure, ... -
Adsorption of roxarsone by iron (hydr)oxide-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes from aqueous solution and its mechanisms
(Springer Nature, 2013-04-18)The adsorption of roxarsone by iron (hydr)oxide-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) from aqueous solution and its mechanism were investigated. The amount of roxarsone adsorbed by modified MWCNTs is higher than ... -
Adsorption of the natural protein surfactant Rsn-2 onto liquid interfaces
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-02-27)To stabilize foams, droplets, and films at liquid interfaces nature has evolved a range of protein biosurfactants. Compared to synthetic surfactants, these combine surface activity with biocompatibility and low solution ... -

Advance Directives in Mental Health Care: Hearing the Voice of the Mentally Ill
(Thomson Reuters Professional Ireland Limited, 2010-05)Advance directives or 'living wills' are statements by competent adults setting out their wishes in anticipation of future incapacity to make decisions. The capacity to make independent choices and decisions may be impacted ... -
Advance preferences regarding thrombolysis in patients at risk for stroke: a cross-sectional study: table 1
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-07-04)Background: It is difficult to obtain informed consent for thrombolysis in stroke patients given the emergency setting, the need for a speedy decision and the effects of neurological deficits. Aim: To determine the advance ... -
Advanced Computational Complexity Theory from an Elementary Standpoint
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 2007)A computable economist's view of the world of computational complexity theory is described. This means the model of computation underpinning theories of computational complexity plays a central role. The emergence of ... -
