Plant perception of β-aminobutyric acid is mediated by an aspartyl-tRNA synthetase

Nature Chemical Biology, 2014
Specific chemicals can prime the plant immune system for augmented defence. β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) is a priming agent that provides broad-spectrum disease protection.

Deciphering the mechanism of β-aminobutyric acid-induced resistance in wheat to the grain aphid, Sitobion avenae.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The non-protein amino acid β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) can induce plant resistance to a broad spectrum of biotic and abiotic stresses. However, BABA-induced plant resistance to insects is less well-studied, especially its underlying mechanism.

Benefit from Biomass Boiler Emissions to Increase Greenhouse CO2 Levels for Optimal Growth and Yield in Tomato, Cucumber, and Strawberry

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Using CO2‐rich polluting gases in greenhouse plant cultivation has proven to be a promising technique for stimulating plants while reducing emissions to the atmosphere. The use of an experimental biofilter proves to be effective in retaining most of the toxic particles. The alteration of physiological and metabolic parameters shows an adaptation of the

Research advances in dysphagia animal models

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the establishment, evaluation, and detection of dysphagia animal models in stroke, Parkinson's disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in three kinds of experimental animals (including rodents, nonhuman primates, and other mammals), providing a basis for the selection of appropriate animal models of ...

Exogenous γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) affects pollen tube growth via modulating putative Ca2+-permeable membrane channels and is coupled to negative regulation on glutamate decarboxylase

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2014
Summary This work reveals how tobacco pistil and style may communicate with pollen tubes and regulate their growth during fertilization via the γ-aminobutyric acid–Ca2+-permeable channel–glutamate decarboxylase–calmodulin signalling pathway.

Photo‐controlled Release of Urea Enables the Detection of Urea‐Urease Intermediates by cryo‐FTIR

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
Caged compounds are a valuable tool to photocontrol the release of enzymatic substrates in a reaction. For example, caged urea molecules were proposed to control urea delivery to urease reactions and aid the determination of the catalytic mechanism of this enzyme.

ANXIETY IN MAJOR DEPRESSION AND CEREBROSPINAL FLUID FREE GAMMA‐AMINOBUTYRIC ACID

Depression and Anxiety, 2014
Low gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) is implicated in both anxiety and depression pathophysiology. They are often comorbid, but most clinical studies have not examined these relationships separately. We investigated the relationship of cerebrospinal fluid (

The Role of GABA and Insulin Regulated Aminopeptidase on Insulin Resistance and GLUT4 in Prediabetes and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

مجله كليه طب الكندي
Background: Different proposed mechanisms for insulin resistance have been put forth to understand the relationship and changes in insulin resistance. Looking at the levels of insulin, the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid, glucose transport type
