Corticosteroid Resistance and Disease
Both the unpredictability of side-effects and efficacy of glucocorticoid treatment can be problematic during clinical treatment. Here we discuss the evidence that exists for the hypothesis that individual glucocorticoid sensitivity underlies this problem.

Molecular mechanisms of insulin resistance in chronic liver disease [PDF]
The work presented here analyses the role of PP2A in the dysregulation of glucose metabolism in the setting of chronic hepatitis C. We propose a new model for virus induced insulin resistance development through the overexpression of PP2A in the liver ...

Prospects for exploitation of disease resistance from Hordeum chilense in cultivated cereals [PDF]
Hordeum chilense is a South American wild barley with high potential for cereal breeding given its high crossability with other members of the Triticeae. In the present paper we consider the resistance of H.

AbstractWheat plants are infected by diverse pathogens of economic significance. They include biotrophic pathogens like mildews and rusts that require living plant cells to proliferate. By contrast necrotrophic pathogens that cause diseases such as tan spot, Septoria nodurum blotch and spot blotch require dead or dying cells to acquire nutrients ...
