Procedimiento de fermentación dirigida y su aplicación en la obtención de nuevas bebidas derivadas de zumo de naranja natural

El procedimiento consiste en la. fermentación del zumo de naranja natural mediante dos levaduras, que se adicionan al zumo secuencialmente, dando lugar a dos diferentes fases en las que se separa la producción de productos aromáticos y saborizantes de la formación de etanol. Para la primera fase se utiliza una cepa seleccionada de la levadura Pichia fermentans, mientras que en la segunda fase se utiliza una cepa de la levadura Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Alternativamente, la fermentación se lleva a cabo en una sola fase con la levadura Pichia fermentans sustituyéndose la segunda fase por una incorporación directa del etanol.

Implicación de las células mesenquimales multipotenciales derivadas del tejido adiposo humano en la patogénesis del síndrome metabólico

Introducción: La diminución de la capacidad de expansión del tejido adiposo juega un papel crucial en el origen y desarrollo de los trastornos asociados al síndrome metabólico. Hipótesis y Objetivos: Considerando que la expansión del tejido adiposo depende del estado de sus células mesenquimales multipotenciales (ASCs), es probable que las condiciones tisulares asociadas a los períodos de balance energético positivo generen alteraciones en los patrones heredables de transcripción génica mediante los que las ASCs quedan predispuestas a favor del fenotipo fibrótico e inflamatorio, en detrimento de su función adipogénica y neovascular. Para corroborar ésta hipótesis nos propusimos revelar la implicación de las ASCs en la remodelación tisular adiposa; su contribución a la disminución de la capacidad angiogénica del tejido adiposo; y evaluar su respuesta neovascular, migratoria e inflamatoria ante la hipoxia. Metodología: Aplicamos técnicas de cultivo celular, citometría de flujo, qPCR, western blot y ELISA a las ASCs aisladas del tejido adiposo visceral y subcutáneo de 69 sujetos agrupados en normopesos, y obesos con (SM) y sin síndrome metabólico (NoSM). Resultados: Los adipocitos generados a partir de las ASC visceral y subcutáneo evidenciaronn una disminución en los niveles intrínsecos de expresión del transportador de glucosa GLUT4 conforme aumenta la expresión de proteínas fibróticas, el BMI y el HOMA-IR de los pacientes. El empeoramiento del perfil metabólico de los sujetos estuvo acompañado por la disminución de la tasa proliferativa, el potencial clonogénico y la exportación del FGF2 hacia la superficie celular de las ASC derivadas de ambos tejidos. Las ASC visceral y subcutáneo de los sujetos SM también mostraron una disminución en la capacidad de formación de túbulos respecto a las ASCs de los sujetos obesos NoSM así como alteraciones en los niveles de expresión de proteínas implicadas en el balance redox celular y vinculadas al fenotipo secretor asociado a senescencia. El deterioro de las propiedades neovasculares de las ASC subcutáneo de los sujetos SM se evidenció además en los niveles de secreción del VEGF durante la adipogénesis y en los efectos del medio condicionado adipogénico sobre la formación de túbulos por células endoteliales. Aunque las ASC visceral de los sujetos SM cultivadas bajo hipoxia mostraron mayor porcentaje de células CD140b+/CD44+ y CD140b+/CD184+ así como mayor capacidad migratoria que las ASC visceral de los sujetos NoSM, también evidenciaron menor capacidad de formación de túbulos, transcribieron más RNAm NOX5 y su medio condicionado disminuyó la supervivencia de las células endoteliales. Conclusiones: El funcionamiento del tejido adiposo parece condicionar el deterioro de sus propias células precursoras y ante el cual las ASCs de los sujetos que desarrollan síndrome metabólico son más vulnerables.

Venture idea newness, relatedness and performance in nascent ventures

Principal Topic The study of the origin and characteristics of venture ideas - or ''opportunities'' as they are often called - and their contextual fit are key research goals in entrepreneurship (Davidsson, 2004). We define venture idea as ''the core ideas of an entrepreneur about what to sell, how to sell, whom to sell and how an entrepreneur acquire or produce the product or service which he/she sells'' for the purpose of this study. When realized the venture idea becomes a ''business model''. Even though venture ideas are central to entrepreneurship yet its characteristics and their effect to the entrepreneurial process is mysterious. According to Schumpeter (1934) entrepreneurs could creatively destruct the existing market condition by introducing new product/service, new production methods, new markets, and new sources of supply and reorganization of industries. The introduction, development and use of new ideas are generally called as ''innovation'' (Damanpour & Wischnevsky, 2006) and ''newness'' is a property of innovation and is a relative term which means that the degree of unfamiliarity of venture idea either to a firm or to a market. However Schumpeter's (1934) discusses five different types of newness, indicating that type of newness is an important issue. More recently, Shane and Venkataraman (2000) called for research taking into consideration not only the variation of characteristics of individuals but also heterogeneity of venture ideas, Empirically, Samuelson (2001, 2004) investigated process differences between innovative venture ideas and imitative venture ideas. However, he used only a crude dichotomy regarding the venture idea newness. According to Davidsson, (2004) as entrepreneurs could introduce new economic activities ranging from pure imitation to being new to the entire world market, highlighting that newness is a matter of degree. Dahlqvist (2007) examined the venture idea newness and made and attempt at more refined assessment of the degree and type of newness of venture idea. Building on these predecessors our study refines the assessment of venture idea newness by measuring the degree of venture idea newness (new to the world, new to the market, substantially improved while not entirely new, and imitation) for four different types of newness (product/service, method of production, method of promotion, and customer/target market). We then related type and degree of newness to the pace of progress in nascent venturing process. We hypothesize that newness will slow down the business creation process. Shane & Venkataraman (2000) introduced entrepreneurship as the nexus of opportunities and individuals. In line with this some scholars has investigated the relationship between individuals and opportunities. For example Shane (2000) investigates the relatedness between individuals' prior knowledge and identification of opportunities. Shepherd & DeTinne (2005) identified that there is a positive relationship between potential financial reward and the identification of innovative venture ideas. Sarasvathy's 'Effectuation Theory'' assumes high degree of relatedness with founders' skills, knowledge and resources in the selection of venture ideas. However entrepreneurship literature is scant with analyses of how this relatedness affects to the progress of venturing process. Therefore, we assess the venture ideas' degree of relatedness to prior knowledge and resources, and relate these, too, to the pace of progress in nascent venturing process. We hypothesize that relatedness will increase the speed of business creation. Methodology For this study we will compare early findings from data collected through the Comprehensive Australian Study of Entrepreneurial Emergence (CAUSEE). CAUSEE is a longitudinal study whose primary objective is to uncover the factors that initiate, hinder and facilitate the process of emergence and development of new firms. Data were collected from a representative sample of some 30,000 households in Australia using random digit dialing (RDD) telephone survey interviews. Through the first round of data collection identified 600 entrepreneurs who are currently involved in the business start-up process. The unit of the analysis is the emerging venture, with the respondent acting as its spokesperson. The study methodology allows researchers to identify ventures in early stages of creation and to longitudinally follow their progression through data collection periods over time. Our measures of newness build on previous work by Dahlqvist (2007). Our adapted version was developed over two pre-tests with about 80 participants in each. The measures of relatedness were developed through the two rounds of pre-testing. The pace of progress in the venture creation process is assessed with the help of time-stamped gestation activities; a technique developed in the Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamics (PSED). Results and Implications We hypothesized that venture idea newness slows down the venturing process whereas relatedness facilitates the venturing process. Results of 600 nascent entrepreneurs in Australia indicated that there is marginal support for the hypothesis that relatedness assists the gestation progress. Newness is significant but is the opposite sign to the hypothesized. The results give number of implications for researchers, business founders, consultants and policy makers in terms of better knowledge of the venture creation process.

A genome-wide asociation study identifies new psoriasis susceptibility loci and an interaction betwEn HLA-C and ERAP1

To identify new susceptibility loci for psoriasis, we undertOk a genome-wide asociation study of 594,224 SNPs in 2,622 individuals with psoriasis and 5,667 controls. We identified asociations at eight previously unreported genomic loci. Seven loci harbored genes with recognized iMune functions (IL28RA, REL, IFIH1, ERAP1, TRAF3IP2, NFKBIA and TYK2). These asociations were replicated in 9,079 European samples (six loci with a combined P < 5-10 -8 and two loci with a combined P < 5-10-7). We also report compeLing evidence for an interaction betwEn the HLA-C and ERAP1 loci (combined P = 6.95-10-6). ERAP1 plays an important role in MHC claS I peptide proceSing. ERAP1 variants only influenced psoriasis susceptibility in individuals carrying the HLA-C risk aLele. Our findings implicate pathways that integrate epidermal barrier dysfunction with iNate and adaptive iMune dysregulation in psoriasis pathogenesis.

Amidinato- and triazenido-bridged binuclear complexes of palladium and platinum

The reaction of [M2Cl2(mu-Cl)(2)(PR3)(2)] (M=Pd or Pt; PR3=PEt3, PBu3, PMe2Ph, PMePh2) with lithium amidinate or sodium triazenide gave binuclear complexes containing amidinato- or triazenido-bridges, [M2Cl2(mu-ArNENAr)(2)(PR3)(2)] (E=CH, CMe or N). These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and NMR (H-1, P-31 or Pt-195) data. The structures of two complexes, [(PdCl2)-Cl-2(mu-PhNC(Me)NPh)(2)(PMe2Ph)(2)] (10) and [Pt2Cl2(mu-PhNNNPh)(2)(PEt3)(2)] (11) were established by single crystal X-ray structural analyses. The Pt-195 NMR data Show coupling between two metal centers in the cis triazenido-bridged complex. The corresponding amidinate bridged complex does not show coupling. The role of the bridging ligand in mediating interaction between the metal centers is probed through Extended Huckel Theory (EHT) calculations. It is suggested that M-M interactions are primarily affected by the bridging ligands
