Interspecific differences between D. pulex and D. magna in tolerance to cyanobacteria with protease inhibitors. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
It is known that cyanobacteria negatively affect herbivores due to their production of toxins such as protease inhibitors. In the present study we investigated potential interspecific differences between two major herbivores, Daphnia magna and Daphnia ...

Targeting the mTOR Complex by Everolimus in NRAS Mutant Neuroblastoma.

PLoS ONE, 2016
High-risk neuroblastoma remains lethal in about 50% of patients despite multimodal treatment. Recent attempts to identify molecular targets for specific therapies have shown that Neuroblastoma RAS (NRAS) is significantly mutated in a small number of ...

Nephrotoxicity induced by vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors [PDF]

Journal of Nephropharmacology, 2022
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a special mitogen for vascular endothelial cells, an essential endogenous angiogenic cytokine, and the principal controller of vascular growth that plays a fundamental role in therapeutic angiogenesis pathways.

The Utilization of Plant Growth Regulators (PGRs) in Agricultural Application and The Effecting Mechanisms

Research in Agricultural Sciences
Plants, which lack a sophisticated endocrine system, utilize growth regulators (phytohormones) naturally produced within their bodies to grow, develop, and respond to environmental factors.

Risk factors for thromboembolism during first-line treatment of patients with unresectable advanced or recurrent colorectal cancer: a retrospective short study

Journal of Pharmaceutical Health Care and Sciences, 2023
Background While cancer is a risk factor for developing thromboembolism, so is the use of molecularly targeted therapies. This study aimed to determine whether thromboembolism incidence differed between vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and ...

The Azadirachtins: potent insect growth inhibitors

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
In the course of their coevolution with insects, plants have learnt to protect themselves by chemical means. Semiochemical act as antifeedants or deterrents, others by disrupting growth and development.

Juglone and Other Biogenic Quinones Differentially Inhibit Cyanobacterial Growth and Could Be Used to Help Maintain Monospecificity of Microalgae Cultures

Fermentation
Raceway ponds would allow the sustainable production of algal biomass because of their lower cost. However, for successful cultivation, the target organism needs to prevail despite unavoidable contamination by environmental strains.
