Gain-of-function mutations in ALPK1 cause an NF-κB-mediated autoinflammatory disease : functional assessment, clinical phenotyping and disease course of patients with ROSAH syndrome
(2022) [Journal article]Objectives: To test the hypothesis that ROSAH (retinal dystrophy, optic nerve oedema, splenomegaly, anhidrosis and headache) syndrome, caused by dominant mutation in ALPK1, is an autoinflammatory disease. Methods: This ... -
Gall-inducing insects of deciduous and semideciduous forests in Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil
(2018) [Journal article]Galls are specific changes induced by insects on plant organs mainly through increases in plant cell number and/or size. Gall diversity is easy to recognize in the field because gallers are mostly species-specific, and ... -
Galling arthropod diversity in adjacent swamp forests and restinga vegetation in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
(2010) [Journal article]Galling arthropods create plant structures inside which they fi nd shelter. Factors acting on galler diversity are still being discussed, with this fauna considered more diverse in xeric than mesic environments (higrothermic ... -
