Lectin-Like Oxidized LDL Receptor-1 Is an Enhancer of Tumor Angiogenesis in Human Prostate Cancer Cells
(2014)
Altered expression and function of lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) has been associated with
several diseases such as endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis and obesity. In these pathologies, ...
Efecto de la ingesta de vitamina C en el proceso de formación de cálculos biliares de colesterol
(Scielo, 2014)
Biliary cholesterol is transported by vesicles and micelles.
Cholesterol microcrystals are derived from thermodynamically unstable vesicles.
In experimental animals vitamin C deficiency leads to a super-saturation of ...
Oxidative regeneration of toluene-saturated natural zeolite by gaseous ozone: The influence of zeolite chemical surface characteristics
(Elsevier, 2014)
In this study, the effect of zeolite chemical surface characteristics on the oxidative regeneration of toluene saturated-zeolite samples is investigated. A Chilean natural zeolite (53% clinoptilolite, 40% mordenite and 7% ...
A posteriori error estimates for the problem of electrostatics with a dipole source
(Elsevier, 2014)
Electroencephalography is a non-invasive technique for detecting brain activity from the measurement of the electric potential on the head surface. In mathematical terms, it reduces to an inverse problem in which the goal ...
Parque Astronómico de Atacama: An Ideal Site for Millimeter, Submillimeter, and Mid-Infrared Astronomy
(arxiv.org, 2014)
The area of Chajnantor, at more than 5000 m altitude in northern Chile, offers unique atmospheric
and operational conditions which arguably make it the best site in the world for
millimeter, submillimeter, and mid-infrared ...
Temporal trends of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in a dated sediment core of a high atitude mountain lake: CHUNGARA lake- northern CHILE (18° S)
(Scielo, 2014)
In this study levels, fluxes and temporal trend of PAHs are reported in a sediment core from Chungará Lake (18° S) in Northern Chile. The sediments
were obtained by Kayac corer and freeze dried. PAHs were extracted in ...
Low cost a posteriori error estimators for an augmented mixed FEM in linear elasticity
(Elsevier, 2014)
We consider an augmented mixed finite element method applied to the linear elasticity problem and derive a posteriori error estimators that are simpler and easier to implement than the ones available in the literature. In ...
Magnitud, impacto y estrategias de enfrentamiento de la depresión, con referencia a Chile
(Scielo, 2014)
Depression is a global public health priority. Intervention strategies at
different levels of care must be implemented. Research is needed in the areas
of depression prevention, treatment and rehabilitation. This paper ...
Variation of sterols and fatty acids as an adaptive response to changes in temperature, salinity and pH of a marine fungus Epicoccum nigrum isolated from the Patagonian Fjords
(Scielo, 2014)
Se aisló e identificó una cepa hongo marino a partir de muestras de sedimentos obtenidas a partir de un sector
de los fiordos patagónicos. La cepa LQRA39-P fue identificado como Epicoccum nigrum utilizando técnicas de ...
