Framing Peninsular Crypto‐Jews as Part of the Sephardic Diaspora

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT When we talk about the Sephardic diaspora, we often talk about Iberian conversos who leave the Peninsula, supposedly to live openly as Jews in places like Algiers, Venice, Amsterdam or the Ottoman Empire. But what about those conversos who continued to identify in some way as Jews but who remained in Spain and Portugal?

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Literature written by the Moriscos during their diaspora in North Africa, especially in the 17th century, offers three fundamental pillars for its analysis: the languages in which it is written, their emotional and intellectual relationship with their land of origin and their host countries, and, finally, religion.

Carbohydrate intake of 10 g/kg body mass rapidly replenishes liver, but not muscle glycogen contents, during 12 h of post‐exercise recovery in well‐trained cyclists

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Exhaustive cycling exercise substantially reduces liver and muscle glycogen stores. During 12 h of post‐exercise recovery without carbohydrate intake, glycogen stores remain depleted. In contrast, when carbohydrate is consumed at 10 g/kg body mass (BM), provided during the first 6 h as sucrose beverages (1.2 g/kg BM/h), liver ...

Peripheral regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors is limited despite activation of regenerative transcriptional pathways

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors (Aβ‐LTMRs), sensory neurons responsible for discriminative touch, has not previously been explored. Here, we took advantage of the selective expression of Calb1 in Aβ‐LTMRs to generate two genetic mouse models for studying their regenerative response after nerve injury.
