Induction of systemic oxidative stress leads to brain oedema in portacaval shunted rats
(Wiley, 2013-11-25)
Background & Aims The pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is multifactorial and often associated with the
development of brain oedema. In addition to ammonia playing a central role, systemic oxidative stress is ...
Astrocyte glutamine synthetase : pivotal in health and disease
(Portland Press, 2013)
The multifunctional properties of astrocytes signify their importance in brain physiology and neurological function. In addition to defining the brain architecture, astrocytes are primary elements of brain ion, pH and ...
Immunoregulatory CD4-CD8- T cells as a potential therapeutic tool for transplantation, autoimmunity, and cancer
(Frontiers media, 2013-01-13)
A central objective in organ transplantation and the treatment or prevention of autoimmune disease is the achievement of antigen-specific immune tolerance. An additional challenge in bone marrow transplantation for the ...
ERPs and task effects in the auditory processing of gender agreement and semantics in French
(John Benjamins Publishing, 2013-11-15)
We investigated task effects on violation ERP responses to Noun-Adjective gender
mismatches and lexical/conceptual semantic mismatches in a combined auditory/visual
paradigm in French. Participants listened to sentences ...
Nearby construction impedes the progression to overt autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice
(Hindawi, 2013)
Construction nearby animal houses has sporadically been reported to affect various aspects of animal health. Most of the reports
have focussed on the impact on stress hormone levels and the hypersensitivity of animals ...
Amino acid substitutions in σ1 and μ1 outer capsid proteins are selected during mammalian reovirus adaptation to Vero cells
(Elsevier, 2013-09)
Establishment of viral persistence in cell culture has previously led to the selection of mammalian reovirus mutants, although very few of those have been characterized in details. In the present study, reovirus was adapted ...
Revisiting the prominent anti-tumoral potential of pre-mNK cells
(Frontiers Media, 2013-12-11)
Interferon-producing killer dendritic cells (IKDC) were first described for their outstanding
anti-tumoral properties.The “IKDC” terminology implied the description of a novel DC subset and initiated a debate on their ...
The French noun phrase in preschool children with SLI: morphosyntactic and error analyses
French noun phrase
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-11-13)
We studied spontaneous speech noun-phrase production in eight French-speaking
children with SLI (aged 5;0 to 5;11 months) and controls matched on age (4;10 to 5;11
months) or MLU (aged 3;2 to 4;1 months). Results showed ...
Multimodal image registration of the scoliotic torso for surgical planning
(2013-12)
Background
This paper presents a method that registers MRIs acquired in prone position, with surface topography (TP) and X-ray reconstructions acquired in standing position, in order to obtain a 3D representation of a ...
Patient-specific model of a scoliotic torso for surgical planning
(2013-03)
A method for the construction of a patient-specific model of a scoliotic torso for surgical planning via inter- patient registration is presented. Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) of a generic model are registered to surface ...
