Rapid adaptive responses of rosette‐type macrophyte Vallisneria natans juveniles to varying water depths: The role of leaf trait plasticity

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Rosette‐type submerged macrophytes are widely distributed across a range of water depths in shallow lakes and play a key role in maintaining ecosystem structures and functions.

The Key Factors for the Fate and Transport of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Soil With Related in/ex Situ Measurement Methods: An Overview

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Once petroleum hydrocarbons (PHs) are released into the soil, the interaction between PHs and soil media is dependent not only upon the soil properties but also on the characteristics of PHs.

Petroleum Hydrocarbon Contamination in Terrestrial Ecosystems—Fate and Microbial Responses

Molecules, 2019
Petroleum hydrocarbons represent the most frequent environmental contaminant. The introduction of petroleum hydrocarbons into a pristine environment immediately changes the nature of that environment, resulting in reduced ecosystem functionality. Natural

Glucocorticoid-Remediable Aldosteronism [PDF]

Cardiology in Review, 2004
Glucocorticoid-remediable aldosteronism (GRA) is a monogenic form of human hypertension that predisposes to cerebral hemorrhage. As a result of a chimeric gene duplication, aldosterone is ectopically synthesized in the cortisol-secreting zona fasciculata of the adrenal gland under the control of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH).

Glucocorticoid-Remediable Aldosteronism [PDF]

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1994
Glucocorticoid-remediable aldosteronism (GRA) is an autosomal-dominant form of human hypertension. In GRA in which aldosterone secretion is positively and solely regulated by ACTH, glucocorticoid administration relieves this mineralocorticoid excess syndrome.
