Taurine, a non-proteogenic amino acid and commonly used nutritional supplement, can protect various tissues from degeneration associated with the action of the DNA-damaging chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin. Whether and how taurine protects human ovarian cancer (OC) cells from DNA damage caused by cisplatin is not well understood. We found that OC a...

This study demonstrated the temporal variation of 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) and geosmin (GSM) production of two filamentous cyanobacteria species Pseudanabaena galeata (NIES-512; planktonic) and Phormidium ambiguum (NIES-2119; benthic) exposed to high light intensity (950-1000 μmol m-2 s-1 photosynthetically active radiation). The production of 2-...

Growth suppression and defence signalling are simultaneous strategies that plants invoke to respond to abiotic stress. Here, we show that the drought stress response of poplar trees (Populus trichocarpa) is initiated by a suppression in cell wall derived methanol (MeOH) emissions and activation of acetic acid (AA) fermentation defences. Temperature...

This study aimed to explore novel targets for celastrol sensitization in colorectal cancer (CRC) based on differentially regulated signals in response to high- or low-dose celastrol. Targeting signals were investigated using Western blotting or phosphorylated receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) arrays. Corresponding inhibitors for the signals were indiv...

Otitis media (OM), the most common disease of childhood, is typically characterized by bacterial infection of the middle ear (ME). Prominent features of OM include hyperplasia of the ME mucosa, which transforms from a monolayer of simple squamous epithelium with minimal stroma into a full-thickness respiratory epithelium in 2–3 days after infection...

Epigenetic modification of chromatin is involved in non-malignant pituitary neoplasia by causing abnormal expression of tumor suppressors and oncogenes. These changes are potentially reversible, suggesting the possibility of targeting tumor cells by restoring the expression of epigenetically silenced tumor suppressors. The role of the histone deace...

Mountain forests are subjected to several pressures including historical land-use changes and climate warming which may lead to shifts in wildfire severity negatively impacting tree species with low post-fire growth resilience. This is the case of relict Mediterranean Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) forests in the Sierra de Gredos mountains (central ...

The control of ice growth inside channels of aqueous solution flows is important in numerous fields, including (a) cold-energy transportation plants and (b) the preservation of supercooled human organs for transplantation. A promising method for this control is to add a substance that influences ice growth in the flows. However, limited results hav...

Abstract Introduction: Geomorphological processes, such as flash floods, affect the natural growth of trees. From the dating of disturbances in growth rings, historical events useful for the prevention and mitigation of natural hazards were reconstructed. Objectives: To determine the dendrogeomorphological potential of Pinus ponderosa Douglas ex C....

Orange leafhopper Cicadulina bipunctata feeding induces wallaby ear symptoms, namely growth suppression and gall formation characterized by severe swelling of leaf veins, on various Poaceae, thereby leading to low crop yields. Here, we investigated the development of wallaby ear symptoms on rice seedlings due to C. bipunctata feeding. After confirm...
