Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from cystic fibrosis patients induce neutrophil extracellular traps with different morphologies that could correlate with their disease severity by Martínez Alemán, Saira Rocío, Bustamante, A.E., Jimenez Valdes, R.J., González González, Gloria María, Sánchez González, A.

“…Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been observed in response against Pseudomonas, however, these cannot eliminate the pathogen from the respiratory tract, so one possibility is that the bacteria could promote their production to use them as a scaffold to colonize the lungs and as a nutrient source, however, their overproduction could also lead to increased damage to the lungs. In this work, we evaluated NETs formation by Pseudomonas clinical isolates obtained from CF patients and found that these induced NETs formation with globular or spread morphologies, of note, we found that there is a trend by which the spread forms were induced mainly by isolates obtained from patients with severe disease, whereas, the globular morphologies were observed for isolates obtained from patients with mild/moderate disease. …”

De la ciudad a la metrópoli: una interpretación teórica del fenómeno expansivo ligado a la vivienda, a la vulnerabilidad y a la pobreza: el caso del área metropolitana de Monterrey... by Sousa González, Eduardo

“…Abstract: At the moment, the urban space represents the main way of demographic and economic concentration, not only in Mexico cities, but also, in almost all the Latin-American ones, and maybe of the world; to understand the way in which these urban spaces transform to “metropolis”, is fundamental to try to affect them in a way, this, by means of the generation of suitable instruments of planning, which will produce operative public policies that avoid the proliferation and occupation of vulnerable spaces. …”
