Genes related to osmoregulation and antioxidation play important roles in the response of Trollius chinensis seedlings to saline-alkali stress

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Saline-alkali stress is one of the main abiotic stress factors affecting plant growth and development. Trollius chinensis is a perennial herbal medicinal plant with high values for garden application.

Dynamic Regulation of Ions and Amino Acids in Adult Asian Hard Clams Meretrix lusoria Upon Hyperosmotic Salinity

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The dynamic regulation of ions and amino acids in the gills and mantle of the Asian hard clam, Meretrix lusoria, following the exposure to a hyperosmotic environment was hitherto unclear.

Osmoregulation in Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1990
Betaine (N,N,N-trimethylglycine) functioned most effectively as an osmoprotectant in osmotically stressed Rhodobacter sphaeroides cells during aerobic growth in the dark and during anaerobic growth in the light. The presence of the amino acids L-glutamate, L-alanine, or L-proline in the growth medium did not result in a significant increase in the ...

Osmoregulation and the Hypothalamic Supraoptic Nucleus: From Genes to Functions

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Due to the relatively high permeability to water of the plasma membrane, water tends to equilibrate its chemical potential gradient between the intra and extracellular compartments.

Intestinal Transport Processes in Marine Fish Osmoregulation

, 2007
This chapter focuses on intestinal water absorption that is ultimately linked to salt absorption. The gastrointestinal tract was recognized early to play a vital role in marine teleost osmoregulation by absorbing water. The esophagus and the intestine of

Detection of QTL with effects on osmoregulation capacities in the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) [PDF]

, 2011
Background There is increasing evidence that the ability to adapt to seawater in teleost fish is modulated by genetic factors. Most studies have involved the comparison of species or strains and little is known about the genetic architecture of the ...

Functional roles of Na+/K+-ATPase in active ammonia excretion and seawater acclimation in the giant mudskipper, Periophthalmodon schlosseri

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014
The giant mudskipper, Periophthalmodon schlosseri, is an amphibious fish that builds burrows in the mudflats. It can actively excrete ammonia through its gills, and tolerate high environmental ammonia. This study aimed to examine the effects of seawater (

Improving the Design of a MscL-Based Triggered Nanovalve

Biosensors, 2013
The mechanosensitive channel of large conductance, MscL, has been proposed as a triggered nanovalve to be used in drug release and other nanodevices. It is a small homopentameric bacterial protein that has the largest gated pore known: greater than 30 Å.

Osmoregulation and the human mycobiome [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The last one-and-a half decades have made it amply clear that the human microbiota have a very significant role to play in health and disease. The human body can (or should) be better viewed as a complex ecosystem inhabited by micro-organisms that outnumber human cells 10 to 1 (Ley et al., 2006). However, most research in this field has been focused on
