Transgenic tobacco plants expressing the Potato virus X open reading frame 3 gene develop specific resistance and necrotic ring symptoms after infection with the homologous virus [PDF]

, 2001
Tobacco plants were transformed with the open reading frame 3 gene from Potato virus X (PVX) coding for the p12 protein. Although the transgenic plants exhibited a normal morphological aspect, microscopic examination revealed extensive alterations in ...

Main effects of ascorbic acid levels and organic acid type on physicochemical properties, microbial populations, texture, and biogenic amine formation in sucuk

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Sucuk is a traditional Turkish dry fermented sausage, the quality and safety of which depend on physicochemical, microbiological, and biochemical changes during fermentation and ripening. Organic acids, their salts, and antioxidants such as ascorbic acid (AA) are widely used in fermented meat products; however, information about ...

Transcription factor NnDREB1 from lotus improved drought tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana

Biologia Plantarum, 2017
Dehydration responsive element binding factor (DREB) is believed to be a stress-tolerance enhancer in plants. In the present study, a cold-binding factor (CBF)/DREB homologous gene NnDREB1 (XP_010242642.1) was isolated from lotus roots using rapid ...

Alogliptin Reduces Oxidative Stress in Cardiomyocytes and Ameliorates Diabetic Cardiomyopathy via the AURKB/NLGN2 Signaling

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus. This study investigated the effects of alogliptin on DCM and its underlying mechanisms. A DCM model was constructed and treated with alogliptin. Downstream targets of alogliptin were screened using bioinformatics analysis.

Bacteria are not Lamarckian

, 2007
Instructive influence of environment on heredity has been a debated topic for centuries. Darwin's identification of natural selection coupled to chance variation as the driving force for evolution, against a formal interpretation proposed by Lamarck ...

Genome‐wide screen reveals a universal role of ATP in ciprofloxacin tolerance among genetically distinct Escherichia coli persisters

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Bacterial persisters show tolerance to bactericidal antibiotics and play essential roles in chronic infections; however, the general mechanisms underlying persister formation and antibiotic tolerance remain insufficiently characterized. In this study, the Escherichia coli Keio library was used to identify genes involved in ciprofloxacin ...

Semi‐Automatic Assessment of Crohn's Disease Activity by Combined Analysis of Bowel Lesions and Creeping Fat

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop and evaluate Crohn‐BOOST, an open‐source tool enabling semi‐automatic segmentation of intestinal lesions and creeping fat on magnetic resonance enterography (MR Enterography), and to assess whether quantitative metrics derived from these segmentations relate to radiological disease activity scored with simplified MaRIA ...

Sanitary risk in the handling of home‐prepared enteral formulations: A cross‐sectional assessment of microbiological contamination and food safety

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Studies show increased use of home enteral nutrition (HEN) owing to its benefits. However, knowledge about the sanitary risks of handling home‐prepared formulas remains limited despite their high contamination rates. This study aimed to assess the sanitary risks in the handling of home‐prepared enteral formulations by analyzing ...

Impact of Priming Volume Reduction on Hematocrit Retention in Pediatric Cardiopulmonary Bypass: A Retrospective Analysis

Pediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Retrograde autologous priming and venous antegrade priming replace the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit crystalloid with patient blood to mitigate hemodilution. However, their effectiveness in pediatric patients, particularly when analyzed as continuous variables, remains unclear.

Processing Stabilization of Polyolefin Recyclates Using Alditols in Combination With α‐Tocopherol: A Sustainable Alternative to Phosphites

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
A novel bio‐based stabilizer system significantly improves the quality of polyolefin recyclates during multiple recycling cycles. ABSTRACT This study introduces a novel bio‐based stabilizer system for polyolefin recyclates that combines alditols with small amounts of α‐tocopherol as a sustainable alternative to conventional phosphite additives. The aim
