Peroxidation of unsaturated phospholipids, glycolipids, and cholesterol in biological membranes under oxidative stress conditions can underlie a variety of pathological conditions, including atherogenesis, neurodegeneration, and carcinogenesis.Lipid hydroperoxides (LOOHs) are key intermediates in the peroxidative process.Nascent LOOHs may either un
The odorous steroid androstadienone, a putative male chemo-signal, was previously reported to evoke sex differences in hypothalamic activation in adult heterosexual men and women.In order to investigate whether puberty modulated this sex difference in response to androstadienone we measured the hypothalamic responsiveness to this chemo-signal in 39
Members of the genus Defluviicoccus occur often at high abundances in activated sludge wastewater treatment plants designed to remove phosphorus, where biomass is subjected to alternating anaerobic feed/aerobic famine conditions, believed to favor the proliferation of organisms like Ca.Accumulibacter and other phosphate-accumulating organisms (PAO)
