Lysophosphatidic Acid Induced Apoptosis, DNA Damage, and Oxidative Stress in Spinal Cord Neurons by Upregulating LPA4/LPA6 Receptors

Mediators of Inflammation, 2022
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) has disruptive effects on lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). Recently, LPA has been reported to be involved in spinal cord neuronal injury and toxicity, promoting the pathogenesis of LSS. However, the exact effects of LPA on spinal

On the Analysis of a Label Propagation Algorithm for Community Detection [PDF]

, 2012
This paper initiates formal analysis of a simple, distributed algorithm for community detection on networks. We analyze an algorithm that we call \textsc{Max-LPA}, both in terms of its convergence time and in terms of the "quality" of the communities ...

A systematic review of second language (L2) student writers' metacognitive experiences

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This systematic review synthesises empirical evidence on second language (L2) student writers' metacognitive experiences (MEs) across different classroom‐based L2 learning contexts in peer‐reviewed academic journals. A comprehensive search of six databases (Scopus, APA PsycINFO, British Education Index, ERIC subscription, Education Source and ...

An LPA Species (18:1 LPA) Plays Key Roles in the Self-Amplification of Spinal LPA Production in the Peripheral Neuropathic Pain Model

Molecular Pain, 2013
Background We previously reported that nerve injury-induced neuropathic pain is initiated by newly produced lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). Results In this study, we developed a quantitative mass spectrometry for detecting LPA species by using Phos-tag ...

Structural and functional differences of subspecies of apoA-I-containing lipoprotein in patients with plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein deficiency.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1995
ApoA-I-containing lipoproteins exist in plasma in two main forms: one contains only apoA-I (LpA-I) while the other contains both apoA-I and apoA-II (LpA-I/A-II).

How Can Eco‐Friendly Products Be Marketed Effectively? Evidence From a Multinational Study on the Intention–Behaviour Gap for Smartphones Made With Eco‐Friendly Substitute Materials

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global environmental concerns intensify, firms are increasingly expected to embed environmental responsibility into their core strategies. However, uncertainty remains over whether eco‐friendly initiatives are economically rewarded, reflecting ambiguity in consumers' true environmental preferences.

Lysophosphatidic Acid Is Associated With Cardiac Dysfunction and Hypertrophy by Suppressing Autophagy via the LPA3/AKT/mTOR Pathway

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Background: Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), as a phospholipid signal molecule, participates in the regulation of various biological functions. Our previous study demonstrated that LPA induces cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in vitro; however, the functional role ...

Scaling and superscaling solutions from the functional renormalization group

, 2015
We study the renormalization group flow of $\mathbb{Z}_2$-invariant supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric scalar models in the local potential approximation using functional renormalization group methods. We focus our attention to the fixed points of the
