Bile acid-FXR alpha pathways regulate male sexual maturation in mice

Kristina Schoonjans

The bile acid receptor Farnesol-X-Receptor alpha (FRX alpha) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily. FRX alpha is expressed in the interstitial compartment of the adult testes, which contain the Leydig cells. In adult, short term treatment (12 hou ...

Detection of Pressure or Flow Rate Variations in MR Valves through Magnetic Flux Analysis

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Daniel Grivon

Magneto-Rheological (MR) fluids consist in a suspension of ferromagnetic particles dispersed in a fluid carrier. If excited by a magnetic source, the nearby magnetic field induces the particles magnetization with the formation of chainlike structures align ...
