Tolerance to Desiccation of Diospyros inconstans Jacq. (Ebenaceae) Seeds at Different Maturity Stages

open access: yesFloresta e Ambiente, 2021
Classifying seeds in terms of desiccation tolerance is the first step in determining the potential and most appropriate conditions for storage. This study aimed to characterize the tolerance to desiccation of Diospyros inconstans seeds from fruits at ...

Eggs of the mosquito Aedes aegypti survive desiccation by rewiring their polyamine and lipid metabolism.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2023
Upon water loss, some organisms pause their life cycles and escape death. While widespread in microbes, this is less common in animals. Aedes mosquitoes are vectors for viral diseases.

Desiccation tolerance of prokaryotes

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1994
The removal of cell-bound water through air drying and the addition of water to air-dried cells are forces that have played a pivotal role in the evolution of the prokaryotes. In bacterial cells that have been subjected to air drying, the evaporation of free cytoplasmic water (Vf) can be instantaneous, and an equilibrium between cell-bound water (Vb ...

Comparisons of the resurrection grass, Eragrostis nindensis, with the related desiccation-sensitive species, E. curvula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Bibliography: leaves 100-133.Desiccation tolerance of the inner leaves of Eragrostis nindensis is compared with the desiccation sensitivity of the outer leaves, as well as those of the closely related species, E. curvula. Both E. nindensis and E. curvula

Desiccation and heat tolerance of Enterobacter sakazakii [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Microbiology, 2003
Enterobacter sakazakii is an opportunistic pathogen which has been isolated at low levels from powdered infant formulas. This study was performed to demonstrate that Ent. sakazakii is not particularly thermotolerant, but can adapt to osmotic and dry stress.We determined the heat, osmotic and dry stress resistance of Ent. sakazakii.

Desiccation tolerance [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Despite the fundamental significance of desiccation in determining the distributions and activities of living organisms, there is virtually no insight as to the state of the cytoplasm of an air-dried, or even a wet, cell.

Characterization of two, desiccation linked, Group 1 LEA proteins from the resurrection plant Xerophyta humilis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Studies on resurrection plants and other anhydrobiotic organisms show expression of Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) proteins associated with desiccation tolerance. However, the precise role of these proteins has not been described.

Extracellular matrix remodeling and immune reprogramming drive residual tumor progression of liver cancer after incomplete microwave ablation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation (iMWA) of liver cancer triggers a biphasic progression in residual tumors. At Day 3, the microenvironment is characterized by acute inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. By Day 14, a profound shift occurs toward oncogenic signal transduction and immunosuppression, marked by macrophage ...

Investigating the mechanisms of desiccation tolerance in the resurrection plant, myrothamnus flabellifolius (WELW) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Biliography : leaves 162-184.Resurrection plants, including Myrothamnus flabellifolius, grow in shallow soil upon rocky outcrops where they experience regular periods of water stress. Associated with this is light stress.

Analysing the significance of small conformational changes and low occupancy states in serial crystallographic data

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This protocol paper outlines methods to establish the success of a time‐resolved serial crystallographic experiment, by means of statistical analysis of timepoint data in reciprocal space and models in real space. We show how to amplify the signal from excited states to visualise structural changes in successful experiments.
