Water availability is one of the main limiting factors that control ecosystem functions and productivity in semiarid regions. Vegetation of these regions usually presents a patchy distribution where sparse plant cover is...

The homomeric α7 nicotinic receptor (nAChR) is one of the most abundant nAChRs in the central nervous system where it contributes to cognition, attention, and working memory. α7 nAChR is also present in lymphocytes, de...

This paper reports on miniaturized hydrogen sensing platforms, exploring several means of fabricating nano‐ structured films and evaluating their sensing characteris‐ tics. Palladium-sputtered nanoporous organosilica...

Los humedales son zonas en donde el agua es el principal factor que controla el ambiente así como biodiversidad asociada. Especialmente en zonas áridas como la Puna, estos sistemas son de enorme importancia para la bio...

A non-enzymatic glucose sensor based on a thin layer of nickel immobilized on a gold electrode (EAuNi(OH)2) was used to perform impedimetric determination of glucose. The electrodeposition solution, composed of 0.010 M N...

Alopecia areata is an inflammatory disease with noncicatricial hair loss. Despite its high prevalence in the dermatological patient population, the pathogenesis is not sufficiently understood. In recent years, the contri...

Chronic inflammation and oxidative stress are hallmarks of chagasic cardiomyopathy (CCM). In this study, we determined if microparticles (MPs) generated during Trypanosoma cruzi (Tc) infection carry the host?s signature ...
