    This contribution focusses on stromatolites and oncolites as tools to seek diverse environmental and climate information at different temporal scales. The scales are: (a) Low frequency, dealing with macroscopic and megascopic scales, and (b) high frequency, involving calendar and solar frequency bands. Two depositional environments are used for this purpose: (a) Fluvial and fluvial–lacustrine, which can develop under high to moderate gradients, and in low-gradient conditions, and (b) lacustrine, subject to low-gradient, hydrologically closed lake conditions. Several current and ancient examples in the Iberian Peninsula allow high-frequency and low-frequency analyses. Within the wedge-shaped depositional units that fill the high- to moderate-gradient, stepped fluvial systems, stromatolites form half domes and lenticular bodies, commonly at the wedge front. Oncolites are uncommon. These stromatolites developed in moderate to fast-flowing water in stepped cascades and rapids. Their geometry and extent reflect the topography of the bedrock and later ongoing growth. In low-gradient fluvial and fluvial-(open) lacustrine systems the depositional units are tabular, low-angle wedge-shaped and lenticular and have great spatial facies variability. The dominant oncoid and coated-stem limestones form gently lenticular stacked bodies, developed in wide, low to high-sinuosity channels within wide tufaceous palustrine areas and small lakes. In the Ebro Basin saline carbonate lacustrine systems, stromatolites form thin planar to domed and stratiform bodies and are associated with muddy-grainy laminated carbonates and very rare oncolites, together forming ramp-shaped units that represent the inner fringes of high lake-level deposits. This geometry reflects low-gradient lake surface and shallow water conditions. Textural and structural features allow different ranks of laminae and types of lamination to be distinguished. Texture, together with the d13C and d18O values of consecutive laminae, are useful in distinguishing environmental and climate changes operating over different time spans. Periodicity analysis of lamination can help to discern any temporal significance in the lamination. © 2021 The Authors.

    Stable-isotope changes in tufa stromatolites of the Quaternary Añamaza fluvial system (Iberian Ranges, Spain)

    The stable isotope composition (d13C and d18O) of the laminae in three Quaternary, calcitic, tufa stromatolites of different ages (MIS6, MIS5 and MIS1) in the Añamaza valley are studied and compared with the modern tufa in the Añamaza river. The cyclic textural variations represent thick cyanobacterial growth in the light laminae and thin or absent cyanobacterial growth in the dark laminae. The textural cyclicity is parallel to d18O changes: Each light-dark couplet corresponds to one year in which the light lamina (lower d18O values) represents warmer water temperatures (Tw) than the dark lamina (higher d18O values). This is consistent with the fact that the large crystals composing the dark laminae correspond to precipitation in the absence of microbial films and likely represent the coldest conditions. The d18Ocalcite-derived Tw from MIS5 stromatolite is higher than the MIS6 and MIS1 samples, which agrees with the commonly admitted climatic conditions during MIS5 in NE Iberia. Moreover, d18Oderived Tw from MIS6 suggests a wider yearly Tw range than the two other samples. The higher and more disperse d13C values of the MIS1 stromatolite are consistent with the peculiarities of the vegetal cover and the decreased water availability in the Holocene. Se estudia la composición isotópica ( d13C y d18O) de las láminas de tres estromatolitos calcíticos de diferente edad (MIS6, MIS5 y MIS1), en el valle del río Añamaza, y se compara con tobas actuales de este río. La variación textural cíclica representa un crecimiento cianobacteriano potente en las láminas claras y uno débil o ausente en las oscuras. Esta ciclicidad es paralela a los cambios del d18O: Cada pareja clara-oscura corresponde a un año, donde la lámina clara (menor d18O) representa temperatura de agua (Tw) más cálida que la lámina oscura (mayor d18O). Los cristales grandes que forman las láminas oscuras precipitarían en ausencia de biofilms y posiblemente representan condiciones más frías. La Tw derivada de d18O calcita en la muestra MIS5 es mayor que la Tw en las muestras MIS6 y MIS1, en consonancia con las condiciones climáticas durante el MIS5 en Iberia. Ade- más, la Tw derivada de d18O calcita en la muestra MIS6 sugiere un rango de Tw anual más amplio que en las otras dos muestras. La mayor dispersión y mayores valores de d13C en el estromatolito MIS1 son compatibles con las peculiaridades de la cobertera vegetal y la menor disponibilidad hídrica en el Holoceno

    A Highly Polymorphic Copy Number Variant in the NSF Gene is Associated with Cocaine Dependence

    Cocaine dependence is a complex psychiatric disorder involving both genetic and environmental factors. Several neurotransmitter systems mediate cocaine's effects, dependence and relapse, being the components of the neurotransmitter release machinery good candidates for the disorder. Previously, we identified a risk haplotype for cocaine dependence in the NSF gene, encoding the protein N-Ethylmaleimide-Sensitive Factor essential for synaptic vesicle turnover. Here we examined the possible contribution to cocaine dependence of a large copy number variant (CNV) that encompasses part of the NSF gene. We performed a case-control association study in a discovery sample (359 cases and 356 controls) and identified an association between cocaine dependence and the CNV (P=0.013), that was confirmed in the replication sample (508 cases and 569 controls, P=7.1e-03) and in a pooled analysis (P=1.8e-04), with an over-representation of low number of copies in cases. Subsequently, we studied the functional impact of the CNV on gene expression and found thatthe levels of two NSF transcripts were significantly increased in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) along with the number of copies of the CNV. These results, together with a previous study from our group, support the role of NSF in the susceptibility to cocaine dependenc

    Altres ajuts: Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII); Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación.CIBER (Center for Biomedical Network Research; Centro de Investigación Biomédica En Red) is a public national consortium created in 2006 under the umbrella of the Spanish National Institute of Health Carlos III (ISCIII). This innovative research structure comprises 11 different specific areas dedicated to the main public health priorities in the National Health System. CIBERER, the thematic area of CIBER focused on rare diseases (RDs) currently consists of 75 research groups belonging to universities, research centers, and hospitals of the entire country. CIBERER's mission is to be a center prioritizing and favoring collaboration and cooperation between biomedical and clinical research groups, with special emphasis on the aspects of genetic, molecular, biochemical, and cellular research of RDs. This research is the basis for providing new tools for the diagnosis and therapy of low-prevalence diseases, in line with the International Rare Diseases Research Consortium (IRDiRC) objectives, thus favoring translational research between the scientific environment of the laboratory and the clinical setting of health centers. In this article, we intend to review CIBERER's 15-year journey and summarize the main results obtained in terms of internationalization, scientific production, contributions toward the discovery of new therapies and novel genes associated to diseases, cooperation with patients' associations and many other topics related to RD research

    En este trabajo se han caracterizado sedimentológica y geoquímicamente las tres unidades genéticas reconocidas en el sector centro-occidental de la Cuenca del Ebro (Muela de Borja) durante el final del relleno de la misma (intervalo Aragoniense medio-Turoliense?), con el objetivo de establecer las condiciones paleoclimáticas y paleogeográficas que condujeron al desarrollo de esos depósitos y, especialmente, del sistema tobáceo que culmina la muela. Por otro lado, la comparación de los depósitos tobáceos con otros similares cuaternarios formados por los ríos Piedra y Mesa (sector central de la Cordillera Ibérica) permite establecer notables diferencias en las condiciones de sedimentación: un sistema fluvio-lacustre carbonatado amplio, con una red de canales de gran movilidad lateral y pendiente suave y uniforme hacia un cuerpo lacustre situado al este (para la Muela de Borja) frente a un sistema fluvial escalonado, con saltos y represamientos, pero de amplitud lateral restringida (para los ríos Piedra y Mesa)
