Differential Thermoregulatory and Inflammatory Patterns in the Circadian Response to LPS-Induced Septic Shock
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-03)
Sepsis is caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, and characterized by uncontrolled inflammation together with immunosuppression, impaired innate immune functions of phagocytes and complement activation. Septic ...
Silvopastoral systems of the Chaco forests: Effects of trees on grass growth
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-09)
The area devoted to Silvopastoral systems is increasing worldwide due to its complementary production of beef and wood. Understanding the competition between trees and grasses is critical to identify potential trade-offs ...
Immune Neuroendocrine Interactions during a Fungal Infection in Immunocompetent or Immunosuppressed Hosts
(Karger, 2010-12)
The yeast Candida albicans belongs to the microflora of healthy individuals, although it can infect a variety of tissues ensuing changes in the host's immune status. To evaluate the effect of neuroendocrine input on the ...
Expression of the minor isoform pea ferredoxin in tobacco alters photosynthetic electron partitioning and enhances cyclic electron flow
(American Society Of Plant Biologist, 2013-02)
Ferredoxins (Fds) are ferrosulfoproteins that function as low-potential electron carriers in plants. The Fd family is composed of several isoforms that share high sequence homology but differ in functional characteristics. ...
Postnatal NMDA receptor ablation in corticolimbic interneurons confers schizophrenia-like phenotypes
(Nature Publishing Group, 2009-11)
Cortical GABAergic dysfunction may underlie the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. Here, we characterized a mouse strain in which the essential NR1 subunit of the NMDA receptor (NMDAR) was ...
CURLY LEAF regulates micro RNA activity by controlling ARGONAUTE 1 degradation in plants
(Oxford University Press, 2019-10)
CURLY LEAF (CLF) encodes the methyl-transferase sub-unit of the PolycombRepressor Complex 2 (PRC2), which regulates the expression of target genesthrough H3K27 tri-methylation. We isolated a new CLF mutant allele (clf-78)using ...
Mechanical stress impairs pheromone signaling via Pkc1-mediated regulation of the MAPK scaffold Ste5
(Rockefeller University Press, 2019-09)
Cells continuously adapt cellular processes by integrating external and internal signals. In yeast, multiple stress signals regulate pheromone signaling to prevent mating under unfavorable conditions. However, the underlying ...
The linkage between cell wall metabolism and fruit softening: Looking to the future
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2007-06)
The softening that accompanies ripening of commercially important fruits exacerbates damage incurred during shipping and handling and increases pathogen susceptibility. Thus, postharvest biologists have studied fruit ...
Effect of feed contamination with aflatoxin B1 and administration of exogenous corticosterone on Japanese quail biochemical and immunological parameters
(Poultry Science Association, 2012-01-01)
Stress is the loss of homeostasis by external forces or stressors. Manipulation, transport, contamination, and other procedures involved in production could be considered stressors. Contamination is a problem commonly faced ...
Pan-cancer molecular patterns and biological implications associated with a tumor-specific molecular signature
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-01)
Studying tissue-independent components of cancer and defining pan-cancer subtypes could be addressed using tissue-specific molecular signatures if classification errors are controlled. Since PAM50 is a well-known, United ...
