Alterations in hepatic mirna expression during negative energy balance in postpartum dairy cattle
(Springer Nature, 2014-01-01)Background: Negative energy balance (NEB), an altered metabolic state, occurs in early postpartum dairy cattle when energy demands to support lactation exceed energy intake. During NEB the liver undergoes oxidative stress ... -
Alterations in the central opioid system following acute swim stress and olfactory bulbectomy in the rat
(Elsevier, 2019-12-13)Introduction: Stress is a major component of many animal models of depression, induced acutely as in the forced swim test, or more long-term in the olfactory bulbectomy (OB) and chronic mild stress models [1]. The central ... -
Altered functional brain network connectivity and glutamate system function in transgenic mice expressing truncated disrupted-in-schizophrenia 1
(Springer Nature, 2015-05-19)Considerable evidence implicates DISC1 as a susceptibility gene for multiple psychiatric diseases. DISC1 has been intensively studied at the molecular, cellular and behavioral level, but its role in regulating brain ... -
Altered gene regulation as a candidate mechanism by which ciliopathy gene SDCCAG8 contributes to schizophrenia and cognitive function
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2019-12-23)Mutations in genes that encode centrosomal/ciliary proteins cause severe cognitive deficits, while common single-nucleotide polymorphisms in these genes are associated with schizophrenia (SZ) and cognition in genome-wide ... -
Altered interhemispheric and temporal lobe white matter microstructural organization in severe chronic schizophrenia
(Springer Nature, 2013-10-22)Diffusion MRI investigations in schizophrenia provide evidence of abnormal white matter (WM) microstructural organization as indicated by reduced fractional anisotropy (FA) primarily in interhemispheric, left frontal and ... -
Altered linkage of hydroxyacyl chains in bacterial lipid a

Altered mechanical environment of bone cells in an animal model of short- and long-term osteoporosis
(Biophysical Society, 2015-04-07)Alterations in bone tissue composition during osteoporosis likely disrupt the mechanical environment of bone cells and may thereby initiate a mechanobiological response. It has proved challenging to characterize the ... -
Altered mechanical environment of bone cells in an animal model of short- and long-term osteoporosis
(Elsevier BV, 2015-04-01)Alterations in bone tissue composition during osteoporosis likely disrupt the mechanical environment of bone cells and may thereby initiate a mechanobiological response. It has proved challenging to characterize the ... -
Altered neuropathic pain behaviour in a rat model of depression is associated with changes in inflammatory gene expression in the amygdala
(Wiley, 2013-08-29)The association between chronic pain and depression is widely recognized, the comorbidity of which leads to a heavier disease burden, increased disability and poor treatment response. This study examined nociceptive ... -
Altered neuropathic pain behaviour in a rat model of depression is associated with changes in inflammatory gene expression in the amygdala
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013-08-01)The association between chronic pain and depression is widely recognized, the comorbidity of which leads to a heavier disease burden, increased disability and poor treatment response. This study examined nociceptive ... -
Altered nociceptive responding in animal models of affective disorders: role of monoamines and immune mediators
(2013-12-18)Depression and chronic pain share an intricate, complex relationship, the comorbidity of which is reported to affect up to 80% of patients. This thesis demonstrated enhanced nociceptive responding to mechanical and cold, ... -
Altered thermoregulatory responses to clonidine in streptozotocin-diabetic rats
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1996-03-01)1 The effects of streptozotocin (STZ) treatment on alpha(2)-adrenoceptor regulation of body temperature were studied by monitoring the response of colonic temperature to administration of clonidine. 2 A dose-dependent fall ... -
Altering legacies as ‘A Farmer in My Own Right’: married women's experiences of farm property ownership in Ireland
(NUI Galway, 2018-01-31)A number of women living on family farms own farm property in their own right. This is an unexplored research area in Ireland. Gender inequalities in the ownership and control of farm property have consequences for women’s ... -
Altering the granularity of neutrality in a multi-layered genetic algorithm
(SciTePress Digital Library, 2014)By adopting a basic interpretation of the biological processes of transcription and translation, the multilayered GA (MGA) introduces a genotype-phenotype mapping for a haploid genotype, which allows the granularity of the ... -
Alternate two-dimensional quantum walk with a single-qubit coin
(American Physical Society (APS), 2011-10-25)We have recently proposed a two-dimensional quantum walk where the requirement of a higher dimensionality of the coin space is substituted with the alternance of the directions in which the walker can move [C. Di Franco, ... -
Alternating bimetallic Na/Mn covalent and ionic chains
(RSC, 2010-07-30)The first coordination polymers constructed using the 2,2'-biphenol ligand are described along with their ionic supramolecular counterparts. -
Alternative energy imaginaries: Implications for energy research, policy integration and the transformation of energy systems
(Elsevier, 2021-01-16)The paper highlights shortcomings in the contribution of qualitative social sciences and humanities (SSH) research to tackling challenges connected with energy and climate change. These shortcomings are illustrated based ... -
An alternative gathering: public space and shared agency in the lived experience of multicultural Ireland
(2014-01-31)The overarching aim of this thesis is to understand the palette of complex ways in which a diverse community in Ireland responds to its challenges. This research, therefore, offers important insights into novel approaches ... -
Alternative uses for co-products: harnessing the potential of valuable compounds from meat processing chains
(Elsevier BV, 2017-10-01)Opportunities for exploiting the inherent value of protein-rich meat processing co-products, in the context of increased global demand for protein and for sustainable processing systems, are discussed. While direct consumption ... -
Am I being watched? The role of researcher presence on toddlers’ behaviour during ‘everyday’ pain experiences: a pilot study
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-12-31)Objective: Paediatric research on 'everyday' pain experiences is sparse, stemming from a lack of appropriate methodologies. We explored the feasibility of two methodologies for conducting naturalistic observations of ...
