Estimativa de parâmetros genéticos de caracteres da planta e da qualidade do grão em uma população de milho opaco (Zea mays)

Uma população de milho denominada ESALQ-VD-opaco foi utilizada no presente trabalho para se estimar parâmetros genéticos e fenotípicos associados a caracteres de produtividade, altura da planta e da espiga, % triptofano e % triptofano na proteína. Um total de 364 progenies de meios irmãos foram avaliadas em látices com duas repetições. As estimativas das variâncias genéticas aditivas para produção de grãos (s²A= 333,44 g/pl), altura da planta (s²A= 187,85) e altura da espiga (s²A = 122,08) indicam a existência de suficiente variabilidade genética no material. Para os caracteres de qualidade do grão, detectou-se também suficiente variabilidade aditiva, permitindo obter progressos genéticos com a seleção. Estimativas de correlações genéticas entre produção de grãos e altura de planta e da espiga, foram de baixa magnitude favorecendo a seleção para produtividade sem alterar significativamente altura da planta e da espiga. As correlações genéticas entre produção de grãos e caracteres para qualidade protéica foram positiva para proteína (rA = 0,303), negativa para triptofano (rA = -0,178) e negativa para triptofano na proteína (rA = -0,568). Verificou-se também uma correlação negativa entre % proteína e % triptofano na proteína (rA = -0,591). A população mostra que selecionando-se para produtividade haverá uma redução na qualidade da proteína, contudo existe suficiente variabilidade genética presente que permite melhorar o valor nutricional da semente sem prejuízo para a produtividade de grãos.

Effect on renal function of tenofovir co-administered with either efavirenz or boosted lopinavir or boosted atazanavir: the Swiss HIV Cohort Study

Reduced re'nal function has been reported with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). It is not clear whether TDF co-administered with a boosted protease inhibitor (PI) leads to a greater decline in renal function than TDF co-administered with a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI).Methods: We selected ail antiretroviral therapy-naive patients in the Swiss HIV Cohort Study (SHCS) with calibrated or corrected serum creatinine measurements starting antiretroviral therapy with TDF and either efavirenz (EFV) or the ritonavir-boosted PIs, lopinavir (LPV/r) or atazanavir (ATV/r). As a measure of renal function, we used the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). We calculated the difference in eGFR over time between two therapies using a marginal model for repeated measures. In weighted analyses, observations were weighted by the product of their point of treatment and censoring weights to adjust for differences both in the sort of patients starting each therapy and in the sort of patients remaining on each therapy over time.Results: By March 2011, 940 patients with at least one creatinine measurement on a first therapy with either TDF and EFV (n=484), TDF and LPVlr (n=269) or TDF and ATV/r (n=187) had been followed for a median of 1. 7, 1.2 and 1.3 years, respectively. Table 1 shows the difference in average estimated GFR (eGFR) over time since starting cART for two marginal models. The first model was not adjusted for potential confounders; the second mode! used weights to adjust for confounders. The results suggest a greater decline in renal function during the first 6 months if TDF is used with a PI rather than with an NNRTI, but no further difference between these therapies after the first 6 months. TDF and ATV/r may lead to a greater decline in the first 6 months than TDF and LPVlr.Conclusions: TDF co-administered with a boosted PI leads to a greater de cline in renal function over the first 6 months of therapy than TDF co-administered with an NNRTI; this decline may be worse with ATV/r than with LPV/r.

Immunocytochemical localisation of microtubule-associated proteins 1b and 2 in the developing rat spinal cord.

The straightforward anatomical organisation of the developing and mature rat spinal cord was used to determine and interpret the time of appearance and expression patterns of microtubule-associated proteins (MAP) 1b and 2. Immunoblots revealed the presence of MAP1b and 2 in the early embryonic rat spinal cord and confirmed the specificity of the used anti-MAP mouse monoclonal antibodies. The immunocytochemical data demonstrated a rostral-to-caudal and ventral-to-dorsal gradient in the expression of MAP1b/2 within the developing spinal cord. In the matrix layer, MAP1b was found in a distinct radial pattern distributed between the membrana limitans interna and externa between embryonal day (E)12 and E15. Immunostaining for vimentin revealed that this MAP1b pattern was morphologically and topographically different from the radial glial pattern which was present in the matrix layer between E13 and E19. The ventral-to-dorsal developmental gradient of the MAP1b staining in the spinal cord matrix layer indicates a close involvement of MAP1b either in the organisation of the microtubules in the cytoplasmatic extensions of the proliferating neuroblasts or neuroblast mitosis. MAP2 could not be detected in the developing matrix layer. In the mantle and marginal layer, MAP1b was abundantly present between E12 and postnatal day (P)0. After birth, the staining intensity for MAP1b gradually decreased in both layers towards a faint appearance at maturity. The distribution patterns suggest an involvement of MAP1b in the maturation of the motor neurons, the contralaterally and ipsilaterally projecting axons and the ascending and descending long axons of the rat spinal cord. MAP2 was present in the spinal cord grey matter between E12 and maturity, which reflects a role for MAP2 in the development as well as in the maintenance of microtubules. The present description of the expression patterns of MAP1b and 2 in the developing spinal cord suggests important roles of the two proteins in various morphogenetic events. The findings may serve as the basis for future studies on the function of MAP1b and 2 in the development of the central nervous system.

La dépendance à l'égard de l'environnement lors de lésions cérébrales: conduites d'imitation, de préhension et d'utilisation [Environmental dependence in brain lesions: imitative behavior, prehension and utilization].

This paper reviews the literature on clinical signs such as imitation behavior, grasp reaction, manipulation of tools, utilization behavior, environmental dependency, hyperlexia, hypergraphia and echolalia. Some aspects of this semiology are of special interest because they refer to essential notions such as free-will and autonomy.

Caracterització d'oscil·ladors basats en CMOS-M/NEMS i la seva aplicació com a sensors de massa

El present projecte tracta sobre la caracterització d'oscil·ladors basats en ressonadors micro/nanoelectromecànics (M/NEMS) i la seva aplicació com a sensors de massa. Els oscil·ladors utilitzats es basen en un pont i una palanca ressoants M/NEMS, integrats en tecnologia CMOS. En primer lloc s'ha fet una introducció teòrica als conceptes utilitzats per a entendre el funcionament i la caracterització dels dispositius. A continuació s'han realitzat proves per tal de caracteritzar els paràmetres importants per a l'ús dels oscil·ladors com a sensors de massa, com la seva estabilitat en freqüència. Per acabar s'han aplicat aquests sensors en la caracterització i modelització del flux de massa a través d'obertures de dimensions micromètriques.
