Esta tesis se centra en las reescrituras que la pieza teatral Ubu roi (1896) de Alfred Jarry experimentó tanto a partir de sus condiciones de producción y recepción en Francia como de sus traducciones y recepción en Argentina ...
This thesis comprises three chapters which share an emphasis on the importance of agent heterogeneity in different areas of macroeconomics. The first chapter shows that the introduction of heterogeneous risk aversion into ...
Reference via adjectives typically requires an intermediate step: nominalization through overt derivational affxing. However, many languages allow even unaffixed adjectives to be used referentially. This thesis is a case ...
La propuesta de este trabajo fue el resultado de una preocupación y una serie de incertidumbres que consisten en entender: (i) el porqué de la existencia de muchas nomenclaturas en las unidades lexicales especializadas ...
Estudiamos la reforma constitucional en México de 1997 a 2015. La elección del periodo corresponde a lo que se ha dado en llamar el fin de la hegemonía partidista. Viajamos en un recuento histórico leído en clave de reforma ...
Adopting a bottom-up approach, and taking the EU‒Turkey deal as a case study, this Ph.D. thesis provides empirical evidence about the impact of externalisation policies on refugees’ daily lives and on their onward migration ...
This thesis is a study of the architectural reality of Barcelona between 1949 and 1964, which adapts its modus operandi of the Milanese architectural imaginary, and is characterized by the desire to substantially recover ...
El catalanisme polític es consolida en el període que va entre la crisi de finals de segle i la constitució de la Solidaritat Catalana. La plena participació en la política institucional ve acompanyada d’una reelaboració ...
El mal pronòstic en una neoplàsia epitelial està associada a l'adquisició de característiques mòbils o invasives per part de les cèl·lules canceroses. Aquesta transformació morfològica es denomina transició epiteli-mesènquima ...
Las especies reactivas del oxígeno (ROS), superóxido (O2o-), peróxido de hidrógeno (H2O2), y radical hidroxilo (OHo), se generan a partir de la reducción parcial del oxígeno molecular durante procesos metabólicos como la ...
Cells have the ability to respond and adapt to environmental changes through activation of stress-activated protein kinases (SAPKs). Activation of the p38 SAPK is critical to elicit the early gene expression program required ...
The vertebrate inner ear is the organ responsible for the senses of balance, acceleration and audition. Three cell types form the functional unit of the ear: hair cells, neurons and supporting cells. Atoh1 and Neurog1, two ...
Immunoglobulin (Ig) diversification is essential for the generation of protective immune responses against intruding microbes. B cells require cognate interaction with T cells to generate protective antibodies, although ...
The large-conductance Ca2+- and voltage-gated K+ (BK) channel containing the pore-forming and the regulatory B1 subunits play a pivotal role in the control of arterial tone and modification of channel function is associated ...
Yeast deal with continuous environmental perturbations that compromise its cell fitness. Upon osmostress, HOG pathway becomes activated and leads the adaptation response. To compensate the osmotic imbalance, Hog1 is in ...
The p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) has a crucial role in cells’ stress adaptation and survival. It also plays a role in physiological processes such as differentiation of skeletal muscle or in pathologies such ...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a variety of molecules derived from molecular oxygen during different metabolic processes. ROS can react with different cellular components resulting in lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation ...
This thesis consists of three essays on the regulation of Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) and trade in open economies. The rst chapter investigates the di erences in Intellectual Property Rights between countries. ...
Alternative splicing provides the cell the ability to generate, from a single gene, multiple protein isoforms, sometimes with different or even antagonistic functions. This process is tightly regulated and alterations in ...
This work is centered on the study of the NKG2 C-type lectin-like receptors on NK and CD4+T cells. We provide evidence supporting that CD4+T cells specific for Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) may express different NK cell ...
