Maternal obesity during pregnancy increases the risk of in offspring. Obesity, arising from an imbalance energy intake and expenditure, can be driven by ingestion palatable [high fat (HF), high sugar], energy-dense foods. Dopamine opioid circuitry are neural substrates associated with reward that affect animals’ preference for Using a mouse model, long-term effect maternal consumption HF diet on dopamine gene expression within mesocorticolimbic hypothalamus offspring was investigated. Mice...
A homologous series of six novel oligothiophene–naphthalene diimide-based oligomer semiconductors with a donor–acceptor architecture, NDI-nTH (n = 1, 2, 3, 4) and NDI-nT 3), was synthesized used to explore set criteria for the design non-fullerene electron acceptor materials organic solar cells. Thin films had optical band gaps that varied from 2.1 eV in NDI-1TH 1.6 NDI-3TH 1.4 NDI-4TH, demonstrating good potential light harvesting exciton generation. The LUMO energy levels were similar (ca....
11-Ring heterocyclic diimides were synthesized and found to be planar exhibit a slipped face-to-face π stacking. Variation of the substituents tunes electronic structure properties. In n-channel organic field-effect transistors, new semiconductors have high electron mobility. When they used as acceptor material in polymer solar cells, power conversion efficiency 1.8 % was obtained. As service our authors readers, this journal provides supporting information supplied by authors. Such...

Abstract Climate change is conjectured to endanger tropical species, particularly in biodiverse montane regions, but accurate estimates of extinction risk are limited by a lack empirical data demonstrating species’ sensitivity climate. To fill this gap, studies could match high-quality distribution with multi-year transplant experiments. Here, we conduct field surveys epiphyte distributions on three mountains Central America and perform reciprocal experiments one mountain across sites that...
Heterocyclische Diimide mit 11 Ringen wurden synthetisiert; die sind planar und weisen eine versetzte Face-to-Face-π-Stapelung auf. Die Änderung der Substituenten steuert elektronische Struktur elektronischen Eigenschaften. In organischen Feldeffekttransistoren haben neuen Halbleiter hohe Elektronenmobilität. Verwendung als Akzeptormaterial in Polymer-Solarzellen führte zu einem Wirkungsgrad von 1.8 %.
Bacterial biofilms consist of a complex network biopolymers embedded with microorganisms, and together these components form physically robust structure that enables bacteria to grow in protected environment. This can help unwanted persist situations ranging from chronic infection the biofouling industrial equipment, but under certain circumstances it allow biofilm disperse colonize new niches. Mechanical properties are therefore key aspect life. In light recently discovered growth-induced...
Abstract Tropical montane cloud forests contain a large abundance and diversity of canopy epiphytes, which depend on soil to retain water nutrients. We lack an in depth understanding how these soils contribute ecosystem processes sensitive they may be projected climate change. compared ground Monteverde, Costa Rica, determine two types differ their extracellular enzyme activity (EEA) fungal communities. Samples were also collected along elevation gradients reveal if differed EEA communities...
Abstract Aim While latitudinal and elevational gradients of range size have been thoroughly studied, the ways these might interact with each other to shape species distributions in complex montane environments are not well understood. We examined how structure individual species’ larger geographic patterns. Location Neotropics. Taxa Two epiphytic plant genera: Peperomia Elaphoglossum . Methods compiled 35,382 GBIF records for 505 species, calculated extents, richness size. For we analysed...
Introduction: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a progressive disease characterized by cardiac remodeling, impaired relaxation, left-atrial enlargement, and exertional intolerance. Direct myosin-inhibition with mavacamten can normalize contractility improve exercise capacity in patients obstructive HCM (oHCM). However, also limits residual cross-bridges during diastole, therefore, may offer benefits beyond obstruction relief. This vivo study evaluated the chronic effects of MYK-581,...
