C‐type natriuretic peptide promotes human granulosa cell growth and estradiol production: Implications for early follicle development

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology
Purpose To investigate the effects of C‐type natriuretic peptide (CNP) on human granulosa cell growth and elucidate its regulatory mechanisms. Methods A human non‐luteinizing granulosa cell line (HGrC) developed from small antral follicles was used to ...

Chitosan nanoparticles having higher degree of acetylation induce resistance against pearl millet downy mildew through nitric oxide generation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Downy mildew of pearl millet caused by the biotrophic oomycete Sclerospora graminicola is the most devastating disease which impairs pearl millet production causing huge yield and monetary losses.

Sampling for Socially‐Inclusive Adoption Studies (SSAS): A new interdisciplinary sampling method for DNA‐fingerprinting‐based crop varietal adoption studies

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
DNA fingerprinting is becoming the standard measurement procedure in crop adoption studies in the Global South, yet the lack of systematic and intentional sampling regarding which farmer to go to the plot with may bias results from these methods. We introduce a methodological innovation, Sampling for Socially Inclusive Adoption Studies (SSAS), to offer

Biodegradation of herbicide chlornitrofen (CNP) and mutagenicity of its degradation products [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Chlornitrofen has been widely used as a diphenyl-ether-derived herbicide for the rice paddy fields. Thus, the present study was undertaken to see whether CNP and its degradation products are mutagenic, and how CNP can be degraded in the natural ...

Photo‐responsive carbon dots for pyroptosis‐mediated anti‐tumor application

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Photo‐responsive CDs generate ROS to induce tumor cell pyroptosis, thereby stimulating antitumor immunity. Abstract Pyroptosis refers to a kind of lytic programmed cell death, characterized by the release of pro‐inflammatory cytokines during the process. Owing to its immune response stimulation ability, pyroptosis has garnered considerable attention in

Generation of a monoclonal antibody against the myelin protein CNP (2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase) suitable for biochemical and for immunohistochemical investigations of CNP [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The functional role of CNP (2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase), a minor component of central and peripheral myelin is still unclear. Here we describe preparation of a monoclonal antibody directed against CNP.

Cancer Vaccine Development: Toward Artificial Intelligence‐Assisted Personalized Cell Membrane Nanovaccine

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Cancer nanovaccines have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional cancer vaccines, which have shown limited clinical efficacy. In particular, cell membrane nanoparticle‐based nanovaccines can offer high biocompatibility and immunogenicity while preserving tumor antigens, including antigen repertoires.

Native expression of CNP in human hepatoma cell lines. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
(A) The expression of the CNP proteins was studied by immunofluorescence microscopy using the anti-CNP polyclonal rabbit antibody and Alexa Fluor 488-anti-rabbit IgG. The nuclei were counterstained with 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI).
