Research Advancements in Salt Tolerance of Cucurbitaceae: From Salt Response to Molecular Mechanisms
International Journal of Molecular SciencesSoil salinization severely limits the quality and productivity of economic crops, threatening global food security. Recent advancements have improved our understanding of how plants perceive, signal, and respond to salt stress. The discovery of the Salt Overly Sensitive (SOS) pathway has been crucial in revealing the molecular mechanisms behind plant ...

Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of Salt Taste
Annual Review of Physiology, 2023 Salt taste, the taste of sodium chloride (NaCl), is mechanistically one of the most complex and puzzling among basic tastes. Sodium has essential functions in the body but causes harm in excess. Thus, animals use salt taste to ingest the right amount of salt, which fluctuates by physiological needs: typically, attraction to low salt concentrations and ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Experimental Salt‐Sensitive Hypertension [PDF]
Journal of the American Heart Association, 2012 Hypertension has been defined operationally as the level of blood pressure (BP) at which the benefits of treatment exceed the risks.[1][1] It also has been defined in a more concrete way by the Joint National Committee on Hypertension (JNC-7) as, in adults, a systolic BP ≥140 mm Hg or a ...

Mechanisms of Salt Tolerance and Molecular Breeding of Salt-Tolerant Ornamental Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 As the area of salinized soils increases, and freshwater becomes more scarcer worldwide, an urgent measure for agricultural production is to use salinized land and conserve freshwater resources. Ornamental flowering plants, such as carnations, roses, chrysanthemums, and gerberas, are found around the world and have high economic, ornamental, ecological,

A molecular mechanism for high salt taste in Drosophila [PDF]
Current Biology, 2022 SUMMARY Dietary salt detection and consumption are crucial to maintaining fluid and ionic homeostasis. To optimize salt intake, animals employ salt-dependent activation of multiple taste pathways. Generally, sodium activates attractive taste cells, but attraction is overridden at high salt concentrations by cation non-selective ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Plant Responses to Salt Stress
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Saline-alkali soils pose an increasingly serious global threat to plant growth and productivity. Much progress has been made in elucidating how plants adapt to salt stress by modulating ion homeostasis. Understanding the molecular mechanisms that affect salt tolerance and devising strategies to develop/breed salt-resilient crops have been the primary ...
