Cytochemical Responses in the Digestive Tissue of Mytilus edulis Complex Exposed to Microencapsulated PAHs or PCBs [PDF]
Cytochemical responses in the digestive tissue of Mytilus edulis complex fed a microencapsulated mixture of PAHs (composed of phenanthrene, fluoranthene and benzo[a]pyrene) or PCBs (Aroclor 1254) were evaluated. Lysosomal membrane labilization period and

Molecular phenotyping of the pal1 and pal2 mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana reveals far-reaching consequences on phenylpropanoid, amino acid, and carbohydrate metabolism [PDF]
The first enzyme of the phenylpropanoid pathway, Phe ammonia-lyase (PAL), is encoded by four genes in Arabidopsis thaliana. Whereas PAL function is well established in various plants, an insight into the functional significance of individual gene family ...

Mode of action of Cr(VI) in immunocytes of earthworms: Implications for animal health [PDF]
Chromium (Cr) is one of the major and most detrimental pollutant, widely present in the environment as a result of several anthropogenic activities. In mammalian cells, Cr(VI) is known to enhance reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and to cause ...
