Recently, global warming and drastic climate change are the greatest threat to the world. The climate change can affect plant productivity by reducing plant adaptation to diverse environments including frequent high temperature; worsen drought condition ...

Rhizobacteria-induced systemic tolerance against drought stress in Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench [PDF]
Induction of systemic tolerance in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] against drought stress was studied by screening a large collection of rhizobacterial isolates for their potential to exhibit this essential plant growth-promoting trait. This was done by means of a greenhouse assay that measured the relative change in both plant height and ...

The Effects of Chronic Psychostimulant Exposure on Morphine-Induced Antinociception and Tolerance [PDF]
Pre-weanling methylphenidate (MPH) exposure enhances systemic morphine-induced antinociception and tolerance in adult rats. This finding raises questions about the brain area(s) involved, the importance of developmental period during pretreatment, and ...

Long term impact of systemic bacterial infection on the cerebral vasculature and microglia [PDF]
Background: Systemic infection leads to generation of inflammatory mediators that result in metabolic and behavioural changes. Repeated or chronic systemic inflammation leads to a state of innate immune tolerance: a protective mechanism against over ...

Engineering human spinal microphysiological systems to model opioid-induced tolerance
Abstract Opioids are commonly used for treating chronic pain. However, with continued use, they may induce tolerance and/or hyperalgesia, which limits therapeutic efficacy. The human mechanisms of opioid-induced hyperalgesia are significantly understudied, in part, because current models cannot fully recapitulate human pathology.

Involvement of kappa/dynorphin system in the development of tolerance to nicotine‐induced antinociception [PDF]
AbstractThe aim of the present study was to explore the possible role of kappa/dynorphin system in the development of tolerance to nicotine antinociception in mice. First, we observed that kappa‐opioid receptor (KOP‐r) participates in the acute spinal antinociception produced by nicotine (3 and 5 mg/kg, s.c.) since the pre‐treatment with the selective ...

Azospirillum: benefits that go far beyond biological nitrogen fixation
The genus Azospirillum comprises plant-growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB), which have been broadly studied. The benefits to plants by inoculation with Azospirillum have been primarily attributed to its capacity to fix atmospheric nitrogen, but also to its ...

Innate Immune Tolerance in Microglia Does Not Impact on Central Nervous System Prion Disease
Prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans, bovine spongiform encephalopathy in cattle, and scrapie in sheep, are infectious and chronic neurodegenerative diseases to which there are no cures.
