The in utero programming effect of increased maternal androgens and a direct fetal intervention on liver and metabolic function in adult sheep. by Kirsten Hogg, Charlotte Wood, Alan S McNeilly, W Colin Duncan

“…We examined the effect of prenatal androgens on liver function and metabolism of adult sheep. As non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is increased in PCOS we hypothesized that this, and other important liver pathways including metabolic function, insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and steroid receptivity, would be affected. …”

Local expansions and accretive mappings by W. A. Kirk

“…Let f:X→2Y be a closed mapping which maps open subsets of D onto open sets in Y, and suppose f is locally expansive on D in the sense that there exists a continuous nonincreasing function c:R+→R+ with ∫+∞c(s)ds=+∞ such that each point x∈D has a neighborhood N for which dist(f(u),f(v))≥c(max{d(u),d(v)})d(u,v) for all u,v∈N. …”

Detailed characterisation of the trypanosome nuclear pore architecture reveals conserved asymmetrical functional hubs that drive mRNA export. by Bernardo Papini Gabiatti, Johanna Krenzer, Silke Braune, Timothy Krüger, Martin Zoltner, Susanne Kramer

“…Our approach delivered novel nuclear pore associated components inclusive positional information, which can now be interrogated for functional roles to explore trypanosome-specific adaptions of the nuclear basket, export control, and mRNP remodelling.…”

The derivational map of Old English and the limits of gradual derivation The derivational map of Old English and the limits of gradual derivation by Miguel Lacalle Palacios

“…After discussing the relevant derivatives with each of the aforementioned affixes, the conclusions are reached that non-gradual formations arise in frequent word-formation patterns; they constitute, with few exceptions, an adjectival phenomenon; and they are mainly associated with secondary derivational functions. Regarding the derivational map of Old English, the conclusion is drawn that non-gradual formations have to be represented by means of reconstructed forms so that each node represents one lexeme and each edge marks one morphological process.…”
