Effect of salinity on the growth performance, osmolarity and metabolism-related gene expression in white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2016
An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to study the effect of long-term low-salinity stress on the growth performance, and expression of osmolarity and metabolism-related genes (Na+-K+-ATPase α-subunit and in gills, trypsin and chymotypsin in ...

Use of water from small alluvial aquifers for irrigation in semi-arid regions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Water from small alluvial aquifers constitutes an attractive and low-cost option for irrigation and rural development in Northeastern Brazil. Based on piezometric measurements, geochemical analyses and electrical conductivity estimates, the present case ...

Dual PI3K/AKT and CDK4/6 inhibition reveals selective sensitivity in an SHH medulloblastoma stem cell model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Targeted therapy was evaluated in SHH medulloblastoma using neuroepithelial stem cell (NES) and tumor‐derived NES‐like (tNES) models in 2D monolayers and 3D spheroids. PI3K, AKT, and CDK4/6 inhibitors had minimal effects in NES but markedly reduced viability and growth and induced apoptosis in tNES cells, revealing distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities.

The effect of salinity on osmoregulation and development of the juvenile fat snook, Centropomus parallelus (POEY)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Eurihaline fish support waters with different salt concentration. However, numerous studies have shown that salinity can affect fish development. Thus, the effect of salinity change from 20 to 5 and 35 on survival, weight, length, gill chloride cell ...

Cl− More Detrimental Than Na+ in Rice Under Long-Term Saline Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Science, 2018
Rice is considered sensitive to salinity and hence, improving the salinity tolerance of rice is desired to increase productivity. Most research on salinity tolerance for the growth and grain yield of rice focuses on the toxicity of sodium (Na+) and not chloride (Cl−); the information on the negative effects of Cl− on rice is still ...

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

Root tolerance to salinity stress: the role of chitosan-selenium nanoparticles on physiological and morphological responses of citrus seedlings roots

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Backround Salinity stress severely limits citrus growth by impairing root development and physiological functions. Therefore, understanding of the mechanisms underlying root system architecture (RSA) adaptation in orange seedlings is crucial for ...

Solid humic substance enhanced spinach abiotic stress tolerance under combined drought, salinity, and daily heat stress

open access: yesPlant Stress
Spinach is a crop of economic importance in the Wintergarden region of Texas, where increasing soil salinity, irrigation water restrictions, and heat stress challenge its production.

Uncertainty Modeling for AUV Acquired Bathymetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are used across a wide range of mission scenarios and from an increasingly diverse set of operators. Use of AUVs for shallow water (less than 200 meters) mapping applications is of increasing interest.

Assessments at multiple levels of biological organization allow for an integrative determination of physiological tolerances to turbidity in an endangered fish species. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Turbidity can influence trophic levels by altering species composition and can potentially affect fish feeding strategies and predator-prey interactions.
