Nitrogen (N) forms and N levels can have a great impact on growth and quality of agricultural crops. Postharvest N treatments may also affect the quality of products. This study was conducted under laboratory conditions to evaluate the changes in postharvest quality characteristics of cut roses (Rosa hybrid cv ‘Utopia’) under different nitrogen con...
Immunity determines an organism’s sensitivity to pathogens and parasites and thus represent a crucial function that affects survival of individuals in the wild. However, this function represents several energy costs for development and use, and in natural conditions, resources are limited. Organisms consequently face energy allocation trade-offs be...

Background: Aging is a multifactorial process driven by several conditions. Among them, inflamm-aging is characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation driving aging-related diseases. The aged immune system is characterized by the senescence-associated secretory phenotype, resulting in the release of proinflammatory cytokines contributing to infla...

In this study, BCPS-1, a polysaccharide previously isolated and characterized from Bupleurum chinense was chemically modified to yield two sulfated derivatives, which we designated as S-BCP1-4 and S-BCP1-8. The physicochemical properties of these sulfated derivatives were then determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), Fourier tra...
Endothelial cells (ECs) form monolayers and line the interior surfaces of blood vessels in the entire body. In most mammalian systems, the capacity of endothelial cells to divide is limited and endothelial cells are prone to be senescent. Aging of ECs and resultant endothelial dysfunction lead to a variety of vascular diseases such as atheroscleros...
La sénescence cellulaire est un mécanisme suppresseur de tumeur. En effet, elle se caractérise par l’inhibition irréversible de la prolifération cellulaire, en réponse par exemple à l’expression de certains oncogènes activés. In vivo, les névi, dont 80% expriment l’oncogène B-RAF-V600E, sont des exemples visibles d’un tissu composé de cellules expr...
