Doppel, a prion-like protein, is a GPI-membrane anchored protein generally not expressed in the Central Nervous System (CNS) of different mammalian species, including human.Nevertheless, in astrocytomas, a particular kind of glial tumors, the doppel encoding gene (PRND) is over-expressed and the corresponding protein product (Dpl) is ectopically lo
The genus Brachycephalus is a fascinating group of miniaturized anurans from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, comprising the conspicuous, brightly colored pumpkin-toadlets and the cryptic flea-toads.Pumpkin-toadlets are known to contain tetrodotoxins and therefore, their bright colors may perform an aposematic function.Previous studies based on a lim

Low-alloyed TRIP steels are well known since the beginning of the 21st century and used for automotive applications to ensure the passive safety.However, although their behaviour is fully investigated at a monotonous behaviour, the case of cyclic loading is here not well studied.The present work describes in detail the heterogeneous-microstructure
