MAP kinase kinase 1 (MKK1) is essential for transmission of <em>Trypanosoma brucei</em> by <em>Glossina morsitans</em> (Publications)
MAP kinase kinase 1 (MKK1) is encoded by a single copy gene in Trypanosoma brucei. It has been shown recently that MKK1 is not essential for bloodstream forms [14]. To investigate the requirement for
Use of B-type natriuretic peptide in the management of acute dyspnea in patients with pulmonary disease (Publications)
BACKGROUND: In patients with pulmonary disease, it is often challenging to distinguish exacerbated pulmonary disease from congestive heart failure (CHF). The impact of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP)
Critical roles of glycosylphosphatidylinositol for <em>Trypanosoma brucei</em> (Publications)
Trypanosoma brucei, the protozoan parasite responsible for sleeping sickness, evades the immune response of mammalian hosts and digestion in the gut of the insect vector by means of its coat proteins
A Trk/HKT-type K+ transporter from <em>Trypanosoma brucei</em> (Publications)
The molecular mechanisms of K(+) homeostasis are only poorly understood for protozoan parasites. Trypanosoma brucei subsp. parasites, the causative agents of human sleeping sickness and nagana, are st
Staubförmige Verunreinigung der Luft (Publications)
Particulate matter air potlution. Suspended particulate matter is strongly associated with parameters defining respiratory health. Besides the total mass of particulates, the size distribution is of i
African 1, an epidemiologically important clonal complex of <em>Mycobacterium bovis</em> dominant in Mali, Nigeria, Cameroon, and Chad (Publications)
We have identified a clonal complex of Mycobacterium bovis present at high frequency in cattle in population samples from several sub-Saharan west-central African countries. This closely related group
Pacing pattern and speed skating performance in competitive long-distance events (Publications)
The present study was aimed to compare the pacing pattern adopted by women and men in races performed during a complete World Cup series. Elite skaters competed in long-distance races of different len
