Early life origins of lung ageing : early life exposures and lung function decline in adulthood in two European cohorts aged 28-73 years [PDF]
, 2015 Early life environment is essential for lung growth and maximally attained lung function. Whether early life exposures impact on lung function decline in adulthood, an indicator of lung ageing, has scarcely been studied.; Spirometry data from two time ...

On A Hypothetical Mechanism of Interstellar Life Transfer Trough Nomadic Objects [PDF]
, 2020 Lethal radiation, low vacuum pressure and low temperatures – this is how space welcomes organisms. Crossing of immense interstellar distances inflates the exposure time of biological material to harmful space conditions.

RNA Back and Forth: Looking through Ribozyme and Viroid Motifs
Viruses, 2019 Current cellular facts allow us to follow the link from chemical to biochemical metabolites, from the ancient to the modern world. In this context, the “RNA world„ hypothesis proposes that early in the evolution of life, the ribozyme was ...
