Maize Breeding for Low Nitrogen Inputs in Agriculture: Mechanisms Underlying the Tolerance to the Abiotic Stress

Stresses, 2023
Nitrogen (N) is essential for sustaining life on Earth and plays a vital role in plant growth and thus agricultural production. The excessive use of N fertilizers not only harms the economy, but also the environment.

GABAergic projections from the suprachiasmatic nucleus to the preoptic area regulate the timing of torpor in mice

Nature Communications
Torpor is a state of hypometabolism accompanied by a reduction in body temperature, which serves as a survival strategy enabling animals to endure harsh environments.

Influence of Age on Stress Responses of White Seabream to Amyloodiniosis

Fishes, 2019
Amyloodiniosis is a disease that represents a major bottleneck for semi-intensive aquaculture, especially in Southern Europe. The inefficacy of many of the treatments for this disease on marine fish produced in semi-intensive aquaculture has led to a new

Physiological responses to gravity in an insect [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Significance While it has long been known that vertebrates rely on compensatory responses to gravity with changing body orientation, this topic has not been previously studied in invertebrates. Here, we use synchrotron X-ray imaging and radio-tracing to demonstrate that body orientation has dramatic effects on hemolymph and air ...

Ewing Sarcoma in Infants and Children Under 2 Years of Age: A French Retrospective Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ewing sarcoma, the second most common primary bone cancer in children, requires intensive treatment that may lead to significant long‐term sequelae, particularly in infants. We retrospectively analyzed data from 1621 French patients treated between 1988 and 2015 within the EW88/93/97 or EE99 trials, focusing on 17 infants diagnosed before 24 ...

Changes in phytohormone levels and gene expression of potato plants in response to potato virus Y and a nonvector insect

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2023
Potato virus Y (PVY) and its nonvector insect of potato tuber moth (Phthorimaea operculella) are important disease and pest in global potato industry. In order to investigate whether PVY infection changed the physiological responses of potato plant to P.

On the replicability of physiological responses

Journal of Experimental Biology
ABSTRACT Science is often claimed to be amid a reproducibility crisis, as evidenced by low replicability of many classic findings across multiple fields. Yet it is not clear how widespread this purported problem is. Physiological responses have the potential for replicability issues because of laboratory-specific biases in animal ...

Safety and Effectiveness of a High‐Dose, Tailored Tissue Plasminogen Activator Therapy Protocol: A Joint Pediatric Hematology and Cardiac ICU Quality Improvement Initiative Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric thromboembolism is increasingly encountered in critical care. Systemic thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) facilitates vessel or valve patency, yet pediatric‐specific protocols remain undefined, and safety concerns persist. Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a tailored, prolonged systemic tPA

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.
