Cotton plants as ideal models for teaching and research on inducible direct plant defenses
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) stores defensive compounds in glands covering its leaves and other tissues. The density and the chemical filling of these glands increase systematically in developing leaves in response to herbivory on older leaves.

Bile duct damage is present in virtually all cholangiopathies, which share the biliary epithelial cells (i.e. cholangiocytes) as a common pathogenic target. Cholangiocyte cell death largely occurs through the process of apoptosis. In this review, we will summarize the mechanisms through which biliary damage occurs in a variety of animal and in vitro ...

Identification of Nonlinear Dynamic Behavior and Failure for Riveted Joint Assemblies
Many different types of rivets need to be modeled to analyze the crashworthiness of aircraft structures. A numerical procedure based on FE modeling and characterization of material failure constitutive models is proposed herein with the aim of limiting ...

Mechanisms of ischemic brain damage [PDF]
In the United States stroke is the third leading cause of death and the leading cause of disability. Brain injury following stroke results from the complex interplay of multiple pathways including excitotoxicity, acidotoxicity, ionic imbalance, peri-infarct depolarization, oxidative and nitrative stress, inflammation and apoptosis.

Road transport vibration stress impact on ‘Palmer’ mangoes quality and shelflife [PDF]
Studying the causes of postharvest fruit loss is important to avoid reduction of quality and quantity for the consumer due, for example, to the influence of frequent impacts from vibrations during transportation.
