The Oxidative Stress Response Highly Depends on Glucose and Iron Availability in .

Pathogens have to cope with oxidative, iron- and carbon(glucose)-limitation stresses in the human body. To understand how combined iron-carbon limitation alters oxidative stress responses, was cultured in glucose-peptone or peptone containing media supplemented or not with deferiprone as an iron chelator. Changes in the transcriptome in these cultures were recorded after HO treatment.

Collective conceptualization of parental support of dual career athletes: The EMPATIA framework.

Multi-national perceptions on challenges, opportunities, and support structures for Dual Career migrations in European student-athletes.

Despite Dual Careers (sports and education) and mobility of students being priorities in the funding policies of the European Commission, migrating student-athletes report severe challenges and decreased performance or dropouts at sport and academic levels. The objective of this study was to depict and assess the perceptions on challenges, support services, and their effectiveness in consideration of specific characteristics of participants and migrations.
