Photorespiration is crucial for salinity acclimation in castor bean
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-11-01)
The last few decades have seen sustained research interest in the relationship between photoprotection and photoinhibition, but it is still unclear whether photoinhibition is a lasting form of photoprotection or consequence ...
Pharmacognosy Can natural products improve skin photoprotection?
(2020-07-01)
Due to increased UV radiation on the Earth’s surface, caused by depletion of the stratospheric ozone, people have become more susceptible to different types of skin damage, such as erythema, sunburns, and cancer; this is ...
Design of novel starch-based Pickering emulsions as platforms for skin photoprotection
(2016-09-01)
Green coffee oil and modified starch were recently found to have an enhanced protection effect against UV radiation. Therefore, this work aimed to develop an innovative sunscreen formulation based on Pickering emulsions ...
The regulation of P700 is an important photoprotective mechanism to NaCl-salinity in Jatropha curcas
(2019-01-01)
Salinity commonly affects photosynthesis and crop production worldwide. Salt stress disrupts the fine balance between photosynthetic electron transport and the Calvin cycle reactions, leading to over-reduction and excess ...
Effect of ultraviolet radiation on clearance rate of planktonic copepods with different photoprotective strategies
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2019-03-03)
We studied two populations of Boeckella gracilipes and two populations of Boeckella gibbosa that inhabit mountain lakes from North-Patagonian Andes with different optical properties. We combined field and laboratory ...
Cyclic electron flow, NPQ and photorespiration are crucial for the establishment of young plants of Ricinus communis and Jatropha curcas exposed to drought
(2017-07-01)
Although plant physiological responses to drought have been widely studied, the interaction between photoprotection, photorespiration and antioxidant metabolism in water-stressed plants is scarcely addressed. This study ...
Can natural products improve skin photoprotection?
(Instituto de Pesquisas Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro, 2020-07-13)
Due to increased UV radiation on the Earth’s surface, caused by depletion of the stratospheric ozone, people have become more susceptible to different types of skin damage, such as erythema, sunburns, and cancer; this is ...
Effects of stressing high PAR on mycosporine-like amino acids in the red alga Gracilariopsis tenuifrons (Gracilariales, Rhodophyta)
(Society for Medicinal Plant and Natural Product ResearchGuimarães, 2014)
Studies in Rhodophyta species have been carried out to understand the mechanism of photoprotection against excessive photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). However, few studies concerning on the role of mycosporine-like ...
