Molecular mechanisms of insulin resistance in chronic liver disease [PDF]
The work presented here analyses the role of PP2A in the dysregulation of glucose metabolism in the setting of chronic hepatitis C. We propose a new model for virus induced insulin resistance development through the overexpression of PP2A in the liver ...

The integrated concept of disease resistance; a new view including horizontal and vertical resistance in plants [PDF]
Horizontal, uniform, race-non-specific or stable resistance can be discerned according to Van der Plank, from vertical, differential, race-specific or unstable resistance by a test in which a number of host genotypes (cultivars or clones) are tested ...
