Shifts in cuticular hydrocarbon profiles of bees and wasps primarily reflect temperature variations rather than the amount of sealed ground surfaces in an urban landscape

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
The Urban Heat Island Effect (UHI) can potentially subject insects to heat and desiccation stress and likely induce shifts in their cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profile. We expected that warmer urbanized areas favour longer chain length of hydrocarbons as well as higher abundance of n‐alkanes in three Hymenoptera species. We found that temperature, more

Molybdenum disulphide lubrication

, 1999
In the 1970s and the early 1980s there was an enormous volume of research and development into the subject of molybdenum disulphide lubrication, much of which was supported by national governments for the benefit of defence, aviation or space activities.

Evaluation of Dynamic Disulphide/Thiol Homeostasis in Silica Exposed Workers

Balkan Medical Journal, 2017
Background: Oxidative stress is implicated as one of the main molecular mechanism underlying silicosis. Aims: In this study, our aim was to asses the redox status in occupationally silica-exposed workers, by evaluating the dynamic thiol-disulphide ...

Dynamic thiol/disulphide homeostasis in patients with Uterine Myoma

, 2017
Background: The aim of this study is to measure and compare the dynamic thiol and disulphide homeostasis between patients with Uterine Myoma (UM) and healthy subjects. Material and method: A total of 54 patients with UM who were diagnosed by transvaginal

Altered Maternal Serum Dynamic Thiol-Disulfide Interchange Reactions in Pregnant Women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

Gynecology Obstetrics & Reproductive Medicine, 2016
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to evaluate the alteration of dynamic thiol/disulfide homeostasis which basically shows the oxidative stress in body in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) by using a newly developed and automated analysis method.

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

The ligand-binding b' domain of human protein disulphide-isomerase mediates homodimerization

, 2009
Purified preparations of the recombinant b'x domain fragment of human protein-disulphide isomerase (PDI), which are homogeneous by mass spectrometry and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, comprise more than one species when ...

Evolutionary Conserved and Divergent Responses to Copper Zinc Superoxide Dismutase Inhibition in Plants

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After an initial evolution in a reducing environment, life got successively challenged by reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially during the great oxidation event (GOE) that followed the development of photosynthesis. Therefore, ROS are deeply intertwined into the physiological, morphological and transcriptional responses of most present‐day
