Doping of single polymeric nanoparticles.
The oxidative doping of single poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) nanoparticles is reported in aqueous sodium perchlorate using the nanoimpact method. Complete oxidative doping of single PVK nanoparticles with a size of approximately 120 nm is demonstrated, showing for the first time a simple strategy to synthesize and chara...

Plant defence suppression is mediated by a fungal sirtuin during rice infection by Magnaporthe oryzae.
Crop destruction by the hemibiotrophic rice pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae requires plant defence suppression to facilitate extensive biotrophic growth in host cells before the onset of necrosis. How this is achieved at the genetic level is not well understood. Here, we report that a M. oryzae sirtuin, MoSir2, plays an es...

Different combinations of perceptual, emotional, and cognitive factors predict three different types of delusional ideation during adolescence.
Although adolescence is a particularly sensitive period for the development of schizotypy (Walker and Bollini [Schizophr Res 54:17-23, 2002]), there has been relatively limited research on the psychological factors that specifically predict delusional beliefs during adolescence. We studied 392 school students aged 11 t...

Resistance of ferroportin to hepcidin binding causes exocrine pancreatic failure and fatal iron overload.
The regulatory axis between the iron hormone hepcidin and its receptor, the iron exporter ferroportin (FPN), is central to iron homeostasis. Mutations preventing hepcidin-mediated degradation of FPN cause systemic iron overload. We have introduced a point mutation (C326S) into the murine Fpn locus, resembling human her...

Confined quest for continuity: the categorical versus continuous nature of attachment.
The use of the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) in the NICHD Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development (NICHD SECCYD) is a major contribution to the field. The core of the current monograph pertains to psychometrics (dimensional vs. categorical assessment) of the AAI and continuity of attachment over time. We arg...

Time trends in adolescent sexual behaviour in Italy.
Background There has been little research investigating sexual health in Italy. The aim of the present study was to present time trends over 8 years in sexual behaviour among adolescents. This study is part of the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children study (sample: 3983 adolescents aged 15 years; 51.9% girls). Meas...

Strikingly positive results have been reported in some patients, but there have been few prospective controlled studies. Also, th...

Dose-dependent protective effect of lithium chloride on retinal ganglion cells is interrelated with an upregulated intraretinal BDNF after optic nerve transection in adult rats.
Neuroprotection of lithium for axotomized retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) is attributed to upregulated intraretinal Bcl-2. As lithium also upregulates brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) which can rescue axotomized RGCs, it is hypothesized that lithium could protect RGCs through BDNF. This study investigated this hy...
