Interleukin-6 gene -174G>C and -636G>C promoter polymorphisms and prostate canc...
Magalhães, J. F.; Cortinhas, A. J.; Albuquerque, C. M.; Baptista, C. S.; Ribeiro, R.; Viegas, Carlos A.; Matos, Augusto; Machado, João; Pires, Maria A.Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most commonly diagnosed internal malignancies affecting men. Due to the important roles of IL-6 in different physiological and pathophysiological processes,IL-6polymorphisms may modulate PCa risk.IL-6−174 G>C (rs 1800795, also designated −236 G>C) and −636 G>C (rs 1800796, also designated −572 G>C) promoter polymorphisms have been implicated in PCa susceptibility, albeit stil...
Effect of electrochemical treatment of oleic acid on anaerobic digestion
Gonçalves, M. M.; Bastos, E.; Alves, M. M.; Correia, J. P.; Marques, I. P.Electrochemical pre-treatment of oleate on anaerobic digestion was investigated using two anaerobic filters (AF and AFm) working, respectively, with increasing concentrations of electrochemically pre-treated oleate and oleate. Influents containing 25% and 50% of chemical oxygen demand (COD) of these substrates did not cause relevant alterations in either digester's performance. Comparatively, the pre-treated ol...
