Z boson production in Pb+Pb collisions at √sNN=5.02 TeV measured by the ATLAS experiment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The production yield of Z bosons is measured in the electron and muon decay channels in Pb+Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV with the ATLAS detector. Data from the 2015 LHC run corresponding to an integrated luminosity of ... -
Z-boson production in p-Pb collisions at √sNN = 8.16 TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Measurement of Z-boson production in p-Pb collisions at √ sNN = 8.16 TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at √ sNN = 5.02 TeV is reported. It is performed in the dimuon decay channel, through the detection of muons with pseudorapidity ... -
Z-Selective Monothiolate Ruthenium Indenylidene Olefin Metathesis Catalysts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Ru-alkylidenes bearing sterically demanding arylthiolate ligands (SAr) constitute one of only two classes of catalyst that are Z-selective in metathesis of 1-alkenes. Of particular interest are complexes bearing pyridine ... -
Zambian newborns exposed to HIV and antiretroviral drugs: Evolution of neutrophil cell count in the first 6 months. Sub-study of the ANRS 12174 trial in Zambia
(Master thesis, 2012-09-24)Background: The efficacy of antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) for the prevention of HIV transmission from mother to child is one of the greatest successes of antiretroviral therapy. However, concern has been expressed in several ... -

The zebrafish cationic amino acid transporter/glycoprotein-associated family: sequence and spatiotemporal distribution during development of the transport system b 0,+ (slc3a1/slc7a9)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)System b0,+ absorbs lysine, arginine, ornithine, and cystine, as well as some (large) neutral amino acids in the mammalian kidney and intestine. It is a heteromeric amino acid transporter made of the heavy subunit SLC3A1/rBAT ... -
The zebrafish genome encodes the largest vertebrate repertoire of functional aquaporins with dual paralogy and substrate specificities similar to mammals
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-02-11)Background: Aquaporins are integral membrane proteins that facilitate the transport of water and small solutes across cell membranes. These proteins are vital for maintaining water homeostasis in living organisms. In ... -
The zebrafish homeobox gene Hox(zf-114): primary structure, expression pattern and evolutionary aspects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 1992)It is gradually becoming accepted that vertebrate homeobox genes, like their counterparts in Drosophila, are crucial for normal development of the embryo. Most vertebrate homeoboxes reported so far are related to the ... -
Zebrafish Larvae as a Model to Study Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity
(Master thesis, 2020-06-30)Doxorubicin is one of the most versatile cytostatic drugs available and shows efficacy on most cancer forms. However, it also possesses the risk of cardiotoxicity that is hard to predict, can occur decades after treatment, ... -
Zhoukoudian Upper Cave personal ornaments and ochre: Rediscovery and reevaluation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Personal ornaments have become a key cultural proxy to investigate cognitive evolution, modern human dispersal, and population dynamics. Here, we reassess personal ornaments found at Zhoukoudian Upper Cave and compare them ... -
Zilucoplan: An Investigational Complement C5 Inhibitor for the Treatment of Acetylcholine Receptor Autoantibody–Positive Generalized Myasthenia Gravis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) is an autoimmune disorder in which pathogenic autoantibodies damage the neuromuscular junction, causing disabling or life-threatening muscle weakness. Most treatments nonspecifically ... -
Zinc status in HIV infected Ugandan children aged 1-5 years: a cross sectional baseline survey
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-09-21)Background Low concentrations of serum zinc have been reported in HIV infected adults and are associated with disease progression and an increased risk of death. Few studies have been conducted in HIV infected children in ... -
Zinc uptake in fish intestinal epithelial model RTgutGC: Impact of media ion composition and methionine chelation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-12)Apical uptake of zinc as ionic Zn(II) or as Zn-methionine (Zn-Met) was studied in RTgutGC cell line in vitro under media compositions mirroring the gut luminal ionic concentration of freshwater (FW) and seawater (SW) ... -
Zinc, Iron and Infectionstudies in children and women in Nepal
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-10-20)Malnutrition in the form of underweight, stunting, wasting or micronutrient deficiency is prevalent in developing countries and has serious health consequences, particularly for children and women. Correction of micronutrient ... -
Zippered Shear Zone Model for Interacting Shear Zones in the Borborema Province, Brazil, as Constrained by U-Pb Dating
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Shear zones typically interact to form connected systems or networks to accommodate crustal deformation, but our knowledge of how this happens is fragmentary. Understanding branching and interacting shear zones requires ... -
Zombies in the classroom. Video games for engagement in a new century of education
(Master thesis, 2015-05-15)The use of video games in the classroom is still a controversial topic in the society. In this thesis I show results from a research with a high school in the autumn 2014. In this research I followed several classes which ... -
