The interplay between redox signalling and proteostasis in neurodegeneration
Brígida R Pinho, Ana I Duarte, Paula M Canas, Paula I Moreira, Michael P Murphy, Jorge MA Oliveira
Dec 17, 2019
Abnormal protein homeostasis (proteostasis), dysfunctional mitochondria, and aberrant redox signalling are often associated in neurodegenerative disorders, such as Huntington's (HD), Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. It...
A Note on the Incompatibility of Strategy-proofness and Pareto-optimality in Quasi-linear Settings with Public Budget Constraints
We show that any deterministic mechanism, for allocating identical items that are complements to budget-constrained bidders, cannot simultaneously satisfy individual-rationality, strategy-proofness, Pareto-efficiency, and...
Isolated Taylor Bubbles in Co-Current with Shear Thinning CMC Solutions in Microchannels—A Numerical Study
Slug flow is a multiphase flow pattern characterized by the occurrence of long gas bubbles (Taylor bubbles) separated by liquid slugs. This multiphase flow regime is present in many and diversified natural and industrial...
