Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Artemisinin, an antimalarial sesquiterpene lactone, is biosynthesized in glandular trichomes of Artemisia annua. Although numerous transcription factors have been demonstrated to regulate artemisinin biosynthesis, the molecular mechanisms underlying the high expression of artemisinin‐associated biosynthetic enzyme and transcription factor ...

Gut dysbiosis impacts estrogen levels in APP/PS1 transgenic female mice
Gut MicrobesAlzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, with a higher prevalence in women than in men. It has been suggested that the decline in estrogen production after menopause may increase the risk of developing dementia.

Transient gene expression of beta-glucuronidase in citrus thin epicotyl transversal sections using particle bombardment [PDF]
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2003 Studies were carried out to optimize the conditions for transient gene expression through particle bombardment on Carrizo citrange (Citrus sinensis x Poncirus trifoliata) thin epicotyl sections. The best conditions for transient GUS expression were: M-25

Use Of The Prebiotic Inulin In The Prevention Of Adverse Signs Of Acute Colitis
Acta Veterinaria, 2015 The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of prebiotic inulin diet intervention on the activity of β-glucuronidase and counts of coliforms and lactobacilli in fresh caecal digesta, cytokine levels (IL-6, IL-8) and transcription nuclear ...

Biologia Plantarum, 2018 Ion transporters play an important role in ion homeostasis and control ion flow from its intrusion to exclusion in the entire plant system. Abiotic stress tolerance in plants depends immensely on the activity of these transporters.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant defensins (PDFs) are cysteine‐rich antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) that are important components of plant immunity. They occur constitutively in various plant tissues but are also upregulated upon stress. Therefore, these molecules are of great interest as markers for the diagnosis of early forest stress response in plants at the molecular

Remote Sensing of Endogenous Pigmentation by Inducible Synthetic Circuits in Grasses
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant synthetic biology holds great promise for engineering plants to meet future demands. Genetic circuits are being designed, built and tested in plants to demonstrate the proof of concept. However, developing these components in monocots, which the world relies on for grain, lags behind dicot models, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and ...
