H\"older Regularity For Integro-Differential Equations With Nonlinear Directional Dependence
We prove H\"older regularity results for a class of nonlinear elliptic
integro-differential operators with integration kernels whose ellipticity
bounds are strongly directionally dependent. These results extend those in [9]
and are also uniform as the order of operators approaches 2

Regularity results for nonlocal fully nonlinear elliptic equations
Rang M. Regularity results for nonlocal fully nonlinear elliptic equations. Bielefeld: Universitätsbibliothek; 2013.In this thesis we consider nonlocal fully nonlinear elliptic operators derived from a certain class of linear integro-differential operators with kernels having anisotropic lower bounds. We obtain regularity estimates for solutions to corresponding nonlocal fully nonlinear elliptic equations

Systematics and biogeography of Pleurobranchus Cuvier, 1804, sea slugs (Heterobranchia: Nudipleura: Pleurobranchidae)
Species of Pleurobranchus (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Heterobranchia: Nudipleura: Pleurobranchidae) are commonly found worldwide, but there is a substantial amount of confusion regarding the ranges and identification of individual species. Difficulties in phylogenetic reconstruction and identification of pleurobranchids using morphological traits has resulted in complex classification schemes, with several species having disjunct ranges across physical and biogeographical barriers (including the tropical Indo‐Pacific, the eastern Pacific, and the Atlantic). A sizeable number of species of Pleurobranchus has been described; however, many of these species are morphologically and biogeographically similar to others, and probably constitute synonyms. This paper provides a phylogenetic framework of classification for Pleurobranchus based on the mitochondrial genes cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) and 16S rDNA and the nuclear gene histone 3 (H3) using Bayesian and maximum likelihood approaches. Molecular phylogenies obtained recovered most of the well‐established species of Pleurobranchus and some morphological characters were found to have taxonomic value for delimiting species in this group. Automatic barcode gap discovery (ABGD) analyses substantiated the distinctiveness of units/species recovered in the phylogenetic analyses, with some exceptions. Morphological descriptions for the 14 species recovered in the molecular phylogeny and discussions on the biogeography and colour variation are included.Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness/[CGL2010-17187]//EspañaUniversidad de Costa Rica/[810-B1-136]/UCR/Costa RicaUniversidad de Costa Rica/[808-B3-092]/UCR/Costa RicaNational Science Foundation/[SCHR667/13]/NSF/Estados UnidosNational Science Foundation/[DEB-9978155]/NSF/Estados UnidosUCR::Vicerrectoría de Investigación::Unidades de Investigación::Ciencias Básicas::Centro de Investigación en Ciencias del Mar y Limnología (CIMAR)UCR::Vicerrectoría de Investigación::Unidades de Investigación::Ciencias Básicas::Centro de Investigación en Estructuras Microscópicas (CIEMIC)UCR::Vicerrectoría de Docencia::Ciencias Básicas::Facultad de Ciencias::Escuela de Biologí
Disturbed development of the enteric nervous system after in utero exposure of selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants. Part 2: Testing the hypotheses
Pharmacological differences between the human and rat vanilloid receptor 1 (VR1)
1. Vanilloid receptors (VR1) were cloned from human and rat dorsal root ganglion libraries and expressed in Xenopus oocytes or Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells. 2. Both rat and human VR1 formed ligand gated channels that were activated by capsaicin with similar EC(50) values. Capsaicin had a lower potency on both channels, when measured electrophysiologically in oocytes compared to CHO cells (oocytes: rat=1.90±0.20 μM; human=1.90±0.30 μM: CHO cells: rat=0.20±0.06 μM; human=0.19±0.08 μM). 3. In CHO cell lines co-expressing either rat or human VR1 and the calcium sensitive, luminescent protein, aequorin, the EC(50) values for capsaicin-induced responses were similar in both cell lines (rat=0.35±0.06 μM, human=0.53±0.03 μM). 4. The threshold for activation by acidic solutions was lower for human VR1 channels than that for rat VR1 (EC(50) pH 5.49±0.04 and pH 5.78±0.09, respectively). 5. The threshold for heat activation was identical (42°C) for rat and human VR1. 6. PPAHV was an agonist at rat VR1 (EC(50) between 3 and 10 μM) but was virtually inactive at the human VR1 (EC(50)>10 μM). 7. Capsazepine and ruthenium red were both more potent at blocking the capsaicin response of human VR1 than rat VR1. 8. Capsazepine blocked the human but not the rat VR1 response to low pH. Capsazepine was also more effective at inhibiting the noxious heat response of human than of rat VR1
