Evaluation of opium poppy genotypes for tolerance to drought, salinity, and low temperatures during the germination stage

Kuwait Journal of Science
Seed germination is a crucial stage in determining the ability of seedlings to emerge and establish. However, it is mainly influenced by genetic factors and unfavorable environmental conditions such as drought, salinity, and low temperatures.

The effect of salinity and high boron on growth, photosynthetic activity and mineral contents of two ornamental shrubs

Horticultural Science, 2012
Simultaneous salinity and boron (B) excess often occur due to irrigation with water containing high levels of salts, including B. The effects of excess of NaCl and B in the nutrient solution on some agronomical and physiological parameters of Viburnum ...

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

OsCaM1-1 overexpression in the transgenic rice mitigated salt-induced oxidative damage

Biologia Plantarum, 2019
Various physiological and biochemical parameters associated with improved salinity tolerance in the transgenic rice lines overexpressing OsCaM1-1 gene and wild-type KDML105 were compared 3 d after exposure to 150 mM NaCl.

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Cell‐cycle‐specific lesion evolution rather than inhibition of double‐strand‐break repair underpins cisplatin radiosensitization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We analyze cisplatin–DNA adducts (CDAs) and double‐strand breaks (DSBs) in a cell‐cycle‐dependent manner. We find that CDAs form similarly across all cell cycle phases. DSBs arise only in S‐phase. CDAs might not directly impair DSB repair, but S‐phase DSB lesions evolve in the presence of CDAs and disrupt repair in G2, also causing radiosensitization ...

Isolation and functional characterization of Salt overly sensitive 1 (SOS1) gene promoter from Salicornia brachiata

Biologia Plantarum, 2013
Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress and salt overly sensitive (SOS) pathway plays an important role in imparting tolerance to salinity by reinstating cellular ionic equilibrium.

Prediction of Ferromagnetic Ground State of NaCl-type FeN

, 1998
Ab-initio results for structural and electronic properties of NaCl-type FeN are presented in a framework of plane-wave and ultrasoft pseudopotentials. Competition among different magnetic ordering is examined.
