OBJECTIVES: Bilirubin has potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The UGT1A1*28 polymorphism (TA repeats in the promoter region) is a major determinant of bilirubin levels and recent evidence suggests that raised adiposity may also be a contributing factor. We aimed to study the interaction between UGT1A1 polymorphism, hematological and anthropometric variables with total bilirubin levels in you...
We studied the seasonal and interannual variation in surface energy fluxes – net radiation (Rn), soil heat (G), sensible heat (H) and latent heat (lE) fluxes – and water vapour exchange above a Mediterranean C3/C4 grassland in Portugal, during two hydrological years, i.e., the period from 1 October to 30 September of the next year, of contrasting rainfall. The first year, 2004–2005, was dry, with total precipit...
