Drought Risk in Mango and Avocado Orchards: Insights Into Plant Water Relations and Irrigation‐Related Agronomic Solutions

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is making water availability more uncertain, with growing consequences for the productivity and long‐term sustainability of tropical and subtropical fruit orchards. Mangifera indica L. and Persea americana Mill. both require large amounts of water to sustain growth and productivity.

Influence of postharvest putrescine application on respiration rate and physicochemical properties of tomato

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Background Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is a species of vegetable that is widely consumed worldwide and has high nutritional value. However, during storage, quality losses occur, especially water loss, decay, acidity loss and vitamin reduction.

Putrescine stimulates chemiosmotic ATP synthesis

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2006
Putrescine is a main polyamine found in animals, plants and microbes, but the molecular mechanism underlying its mode of action is still obscure. In vivo chlorophyll a fluorescence in tobacco leaf discs indicated that putrescine treatment affects the energization of the thylakoid membrane.

4-Aminobutyrate in mammalian putrescine catabolism [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1975
The effects of inhibitors of diamine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.6), monoamine oxidase (EC 1.4.3.4) and 4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.19) on the catabolism of putrescine in mice in vivo were studied. Diamine oxidase inhibitors and carboxymethoxylamine (amino-oxyacetate) markedly inhibit the metabolism of [14C]putrescine to 14CO2, but affect ...

Increased expression of aromatase after focal cerebral ischemia: Relevance to neuroprotection and functional recovery

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Aromatase is the key enzyme in the biosynthesis of 17β‐estradiol, the most potent estrogen, which has pleiotropic neuroprotective properties. Aromatase levels increase in the brain after stroke, and its gene variants increase susceptibility to stroke. This study aims to determine whether aromatase overexpression improves stroke outcome and

Putrescine as a Novel Biomarker of Maternal Serum in First Trimester for the Prediction of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: A Nested Case-Control Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
AimsEarly identification of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) aims to reduce the risk of adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes. Currently, no acknowledged biomarker has proven clinically useful for the accurate prediction of GDM.

Putrescine Reduces Antibiotic-Induced Oxidative Stress as a Mechanism of Modulation of Antibiotic Resistance in Burkholderia cenocepacia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Communication of antibiotic resistance among bacteria via small molecules is implicated in transient reduction of bacterial susceptibility to antibiotics, which could lead to therapeutic failures aggravating the problem of antibiotic resistance. Released

Putrescine biosynthesis in Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1984
The putrescine-biosynthesis pathway in Tetrahymena thermophila was delineated by studying crude extracts prepared from exponentially growing cultures. A pyridoxal phosphate-stimulated ornithine decarboxylase activity competitively inhibited by putrescine was detected. CO2 was also liberated from L-arginine, but analyses by t.l.c.

The Oral‐Gut Axis: Bidirectional Interactions Between Microbiome and Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This study aims to summarize the mechanisms underlying ectopic colonization of the gut by oral pathobionts and the microbial and host factors that regulate this process. ABSTRACT Increased colonization of typically oral microorganisms is frequently observed in the gut mucosa or lumen of individuals with gastrointestinal disorders, including patients ...
