Inhibition Of Ornithine Decarboxylase Alters The Roscovitine-Induced Mitochondrial-Mediated Apoptosis In MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cells
(Spandidos Publ Ltd, Pob 18179, Athens, 116 10, Greece, 2012-05)
Polyamines (PAs) are small aliphatic amines that play a major role in multicellular functions. The PA levels are controlled by ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the rate limiting enzyme of PA biosynthesis. alpha-difluoromet ...
Magnetic flux generation and transport in cool stars
(Edp Sciences S A, 17, Ave Du Hoggar, Pa Courtaboeuf, Bp 112, F-91944 Les Ulis Cedex A, France, 2011-04)
Context. The Sun and other cool stars harbouring outer convection zones manifest magnetic activity in their atmospheres. The connection between this activity and the properties of a deep-seated dynamo generating the magnetic ...
Silencing Of The Polyamine Catabolic Key Enzyme SSAT Prevents CDK Inhibitor-Induced Apoptosis In Caco-2 Colon Cancer Cells
(Spandidos Publ Ltd, Pob 18179, Athens, 116 10, Greece, 2012-04)
Roscovitine and purvalanol are purine derivative cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors that induce apoptosis in various types of cancer cells. However, their impact on the apoptotic cell death mechanism requires further ...
Evaluation of Proline Accumulation and Delta(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate Synthetase (P5CS) Gene Expression during Salinity Stress in Two Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) Varieties
(Hard, Post-Office Box, 10-718 Olsztyn 5, Poland, 2012)
The aim of our study was to compare the effects of salt stress in two soybean (Glycine max L. Merr) varieties. Two soybean genotypes (Ataem-7 and Ustun-1) were grown under 0, 50, 100, and 150 mM NaCl treatments, and the ...
SILAC-Based Mass Spectrometry Analysis reveals that Epibrassinolide induces apoptosis via activating Endoplasmic Reticulum stress in prostate cancer cells
(Public Library Science, 1160 Battery Street, Ste 100, San Francisco, Ca 94111 Usa, 2015-09-09)
Epibrassinolide (EBR) is a polyhydroxylated sterol derivative and biologically active compound of the brassinosteroids. In addition to well-described roles in plant growth, EBR induces apoptosis in the LNCaP prostate cancer ...
Enzymatic and non-enzymatic comparison of two different industrial tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) varieties against drought stress
(Springer, 233 Spring St, New York, Ny 10013 USA, 2017-08-02)
Background: The aim of this study is to compare the tolerance mechanisms of two industrial tomato varieties (X5671R and 5MX12956) under drought stress. 14 days-old tomato seedlings were subjected to 7 days-long drought ...
Random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis of salt-tolerant tobacco mutants generated by gamma radiation
(Funpec-Editora, Rua Floriano Peixoto 2444, Alto Da Boa Vista, Ribeirao Preto, Sp 00000, Brazil, 2015)
Salinity is one of the major problems limiting the yield of agricultural products. Radiation mutagenesis is used to improve salt-tolerant mutant plants. In this study, we aimed to improve salt-tolerant mutants of two ...
Cathepsin K analysis in a pycnodysostosis cohort: demographic, genotypic and phenotypic features
(Biomed Central Ltd, 236 Grays Inn Rd, Floor 6, London Wc1X 8Hl, England, 2014-04-26)
Background: To characterize cathepsin K (CTSK) mutations in a group of patients with pycnodysostosis, who presented with either short stature or atypical fractures to pediatric endocrinology or dysmorphic features to ...
Bag-1L is a Stress-withstand Molecule Prevents the Downregulation of Mcl-1 and c-Raf Under Control of Heat Shock Proteins in Cisplatin Treated HeLa Cervix Cancer Cells
(Asian Pacific Organization Cancer Prevention, Apjcp Head Office, Korean Natl Cancer Center, 323 Ilan -Ro, Ilsandong-Gu, Goyang-Si, Gyeonggi-Do, 410-769, South Korea, 2014)
Background: Cisplatin, a DNA damaging agent, induces apoptosis through increasing DNA fragmentation. However, identification of intrinsic resistance molecules against Cisplatin is vital to estimate the success of therapy. ...
Response of soybean plants to gamma radiation: Biochemical analyses and expression patterns of trichome development
(2014)
This is the first report on soybean with the aim to show the effects of gamma radiation on trichome metabolim. Soybean seeds were
subjected to 300 Gy gamma radiation at a dose rate of 10 Gy/min using a Cs-137 gamma source. ...
