Inhibition of RAGE Axis signaling: A pharmacological challenge
(2019)
The Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE) is an important cell surface receptor, which belongs to the IgG super family and is now considered as a pattern recognition receptor. Because of its relevance in many ...
Entropy production of ion thermo-diffusion in cell membranes
(2019)
Here, we developed a mathematical model for the ion diffusion in thermo ion-channels. Ion channels modulated by temperature are responsible for several physiological processes, including thermo-sensation. Our model is based ...
Mathematical modelling of some poliomyelitis vaccination and migration scenarios in Colombia
(2019)
The Poliomyelitis is an acute infection that has not eradicated worldwide. There are two types of vaccines for prevention: the live attenuated virus (OPV) and the inactivated polio virus (IPV). In Colombia, the poliomyelitis ...
Contour detection in images with speckle by using the bi-geometric structure
(2019)
The speckle produces severe degradations in digital images, which could be introduced by technological devices during the acquisition, capture or transmission of the images. This perturbation affects, for instance, medical ...
Frailty and health risks in an agricultural population, Chile 2014–2017
(2019)
Background: Aging presents an emerging health and social challenge. We report the prevalence of frailty, its association with chronic diseases and the risk of hospitalization or death within 29 months.
Methods: Cross-sectional ...
Impact of additives of commercial rubber compounds on the microbial and enzymatic degradation of poly(cis-1,4-isoprene)
(2019)
Much fundamental research has already been performed to understand the mechanism of microbial rubber degradation. Due to the increasing amount of rubber waste, biotechnical methods to degrade that particular waste are ...
Accumulation of trace elements by corn (Zea mays) under irrigation with treated wastewater using different irrigation methods
(2019)
Treated wastewater reuse for irrigation has gained a greater significance as an alternative resource to meet the growing water demands for agriculture and reduce the pressure on limited existing fresh water. However, this ...
Black holes with Lambert W function horizons
(2019)
We consider Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant endowed with distinct matter sources. The different models analyzed here share the following two properties: (1) they admit static symmetric solutions with ...
Estrategias de afrontamiento de las personas con esclerosis múltiple, mediante su experiencia de vida
(2019)
Introducción: La Esclerosis Múltiple es la enfermedad neurológica más común entre la población de 20 a 30 años. Sin embargo, se cuenta con escasa evidencia científica cualitativa publicada, y la que se logra localizar, no ...
