Participatory plant breeding

open access: yes, 2016
Participatory breeding is a collective mode of genetic improvement of plants which brings together different stakeholders, including researchers, farmers, facilitators, etc. This participatory approach supplements the limits of the delegating mode of plant breeding established post-war in Europe, mode in which research and innovation were delegated by ...

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...
