High-to-low CO2 acclimation reveals plasticity of the photorespiratory pathway and indicates regulatory links to cellular metabolism of Arabidopsis [PDF]
, 2012 Background: Photorespiratory carbon metabolism was long considered as an essentially closed and nonregulated pathway with little interaction to other metabolic routes except nitrogen metabolism and respiration. Most mutants of this pathway cannot survive

Ambient Air Pollution and Stroke [PDF]
Stroke, 2014 Stroke is a leading cause of death in the United States1 and worldwide (http://www.who.int) and may lead to considerable neurological sequelae including aphasia, paraplegia, and dementia. The estimated healthcare costs of stroke in the United States exceed $36 billion per year.1 A large body of evidence supports the association between ambient air ...

Ambient air pollution and thrombosis [PDF]
Particle and Fibre Toxicology, 2018 Air pollution is a growing public health concern of global significance. Acute and chronic exposure is known to impair cardiovascular function, exacerbate disease and increase cardiovascular mortality. Several plausible biological mechanisms have been proposed for these associations, however, at present, the pathways are incomplete. A seminal review by

Ambient air pollution and health [PDF]
British Medical Bulletin, 2003 The adverse health effects of air pollution became widely acknowledged after severe pollution episodes occurred in Europe and North America before the 1960s. In these areas, pollutant levels have decreased. During the last 15 years, however, consistent results, mainly from epidemiological studies, have provided evidence that current air pollutant ...
