Revista Catarinense de Economia (RCE) (e-ISSN 2727-1180) tem por objetivo socializar e fomentar o debate em Catarinense, suas áreas afins no campo das Ciências Sociais Aplicadas Humanidades uma perspectiva crítico-social com vistas à pluralidade ideias.

Two new 20,24-bishomo-25-norscalaranes, compounds 1 and 2, and two new and two known 20,24-bishomoscalaranes, compounds 3-6, have been isolated from the Indonesian marine sponge Carteriospongia foliascens. The structures of 1-6 were determined by spectroscopic analysis. Compounds 1 and 3-6 inhibit RCE-protease activity.

Abstract Syukoro (Suki) Manabe’s Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded largely for his early work on one-dimensional models of “radiative–convective equilibrium” (RCE), which produced the first credible estimates Earth’s climate sensitivity. This article reviews that and tries to identify those aspects make it so distinctive. We argue model RCE contained three crucial ingredients. These are (i) a ...

Reverse Code Engineering (RCE) is, loosely speaking, the process of analyzing a piece of code in order to understand it. RCE is often used to analyze proprietary, binary programs, and in the last few years this research area has evolved a lot. In this article, we survey and structure the area of reverse code engineering. We focus on different techniques to recover both the control and data flow...

A single column model (SCM) version of the HadGEM1 is run in weak temperature gradient (WTG) mode, assuming a free-tropospheric temperature profile obtained from the same single column model in radiative-convective equilibrium (RCE) over a sea surface temperature (SST) of 301K. The resulting quasi-steady solutions are compared with climate statistics from time-dependent solutions of the full 3D...

Acute, high-intensity stress induces necrotic lesions in the heart. We found that restraint-and-cold (4 degrees C) exposure (RCE) raises plasma lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase (CK), and transaminase activity in a time-dependent manner, with a peak value 7 h after stimulus cessation. At 24 h, signs of necrotic lesions were observed in paraffin sections stained with hematoxylineosin:...

The induction of "bystander effects" i.e. effects in cells which have not received an ionizing radiation track, is now accepted but the mechanisms are not completely clear. Bystander effects following high and low LET radiation exposure are accepted but mechanisms are still not understood. There is some evidence for a physical component to the signal. This paper tests the hypothesis that bioele...

BACKGROUND Currently known risk factors explain only a small fraction of preterm birth (PTB). Previous PTB is one of the most important predictors. However, this information is not available in primiparous women. Few studies have looked at associations between regulatory cytokine expression (RCE) and PTB and the results are conflicting. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of RCE-Interleu...

Radiative-convective equilibrium (RCE), in which the radiative cooling in the atmosphere is balanced by the convective heating in a horizontally homogeneous environment, is a good starting point for studying tropical convection. It also provides an idealized framework to compare analogous simulations by global climate models (GCMs) which rely on convective parameterizations, and cloud-resolving...

PURPOSE To determine in rabbit corneal epithelial cells in culture whether epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced increases in prostaglandin (PG) E2 production inhibit both the extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (Erk-2), a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), cascade activation, and the mitogenic response to this growth factor. METHODS Serum starvation for 24 to 36 hours was used to s...
