Role of Renin-Angiotensin System Components in Atherosclerosis: Focus on Ang-II, ACE2, and Ang-1–7

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Atherosclerosis is the leading cause of vascular disease worldwide and contributes significantly to deaths from cardiovascular complications. There is a remarkably close relationship between atherosclerotic plaque formation and the activation of renin ...

Genetic Regulation of Phenotypic Plasticity and Canalisation in Yeast Growth. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The ability of a genotype to show diverse phenotypes in different environments is called phenotypic plasticity. Phenotypic plasticity helps populations to evade extinctions in novel environments, facilitates adaptation and fuels evolution.

Phenotypic plasticity promotes lymph nodes metastasis and drug resistance in lung squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Background: Phenotypic plasticity (PP) is a major promoter of tumor metastasis and drug resistance. Nevertheless, the molecular features and clinical significance of phenotypic plasticity in lung squamous cell carcinomas (LSCC) remained largely ...

The Genetic Architecture for Phenotypic Plasticity of the Rice Grain Ionome

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The ionome of the rice grain is crucial for the health of populations that consume rice as a staple food. However, the contribution of phenotypic plasticity to the variation of rice grain ionome and the genetic architecture of phenotypic plasticity are ...

Phenotypic flexibility and the evolution of organismal design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Evolutionary biologists often use phenotypic differences between species and between individuals to gain an understanding of organismal design. The focus of much recent attention has been on developmental plasticity – the environmentally induced ...

How might epigenetics contribute to ecological speciation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Speciation research has seen a renewed interest in ecological speciation, which emphasises divergent ecological selection leading to the evolution of reproductive isolation.

Drivers of population differentiation in phenotypic plasticity in a temperate conifer: A 27‐year study

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2022
Phenotypic plasticity is a main mechanism for organisms to cope with changing environments and broaden their ecological range. Plasticity is genetically based and can evolve under natural selection, such that populations within a species show distinct ...

Effectiveness of Polyphenols on Perinatal Brain Damage: A Systematic Review of Preclinical Studies

open access: yesFoods, 2023
Polyphenol supplementation during early life has been associated with a reduction of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in diseases caused by oxygen deprivation, including cerebral palsy, hydrocephaly, blindness, and deafness. Evidence has shown that

Domestication reduces phenotypic plasticity in chaya (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius (Mill.) I.M. Johnst)

open access: yesBotan‪ical Sciences, 2021
Background: Natural selection optimizes phenotypic plasticity in plants found in environmentally variable habitats. However, it is unclear how artificial selection has affected the phenotypic plasticity of crops.
