For the extended internodes, a significant difference (P < 0.05) in the contribution to ear height (i.e., proportion of the ear height contributed by the internode length) was detected between the sixth and seventh internodes, and between the seventh and eighth internodes (Table S2). ...
These factors include the expression and activity of efflux transporters, the strength of membrane permeability, and the state of tight junctions between cells. When triterpenoid saponins undergo deglycosylation and turn into sapogenins, their polarity decreases while their fat solubility increases. As a ...
Thus, the maximum can be easily missed in cases with a low difference between the maximum and steady-state concentrations or with inadequate time spans. Using the previous result (Eq. (19)) with , , one findsΦu(t)=−cM*DMKH2kr0(DM+kr0(KH+r0))(DM+KHkr0)3+JmSSt+2r02(JmSS)2cM...
Under these circumstances, elevated HDL is converted into dysfunctional pro-oxidant and pro-inflammatory particles that impair cholesterol efflux and promote LDL oxidation in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). The protective functions of HDL would be overwhelmed through inflammation and other factors, ...
(0.9% aqueous sodium chloride solution, PBS) added to the plasma was used as a negative control. The absorption was measured at 362 nm. Raw data were obtained as absorbance data. The difference between the absorbance of the sample and the mean absorbance of the vehicle was calculated. The...
Tumor cellular metabolism exhibits distinguishing features that collectively enhance biomass synthesis while maintaining redox balance and cellular homeostasis. These attributes reflect the complex interactions between cell-intrinsic factors such as genomic-transcriptomic regulation and cell-extrinsic influences, incl...
In our work, we analyzed the difference between regenerable and recalcitrant materials in somatic embryogenesis. The callus of cotton hypocotyl mainly comes from primary vascular tissue cells. Auxin is the main factor affecting cell dedifferentiation, and the polar transport of auxin determines the ...
At d 7 PI, the PF and the EM groups had significantly lower weight gain than the NI group, but there was no difference between PF and EM birds. However, by d 10 PI, each of the 3 groups showed weight gain that was significantly different from each other. The NI birds had the ...
Iron acquisition systems are important virulence factors in pathogenic bacteria. To identify these systems in Acinetobacter baumannii, the transcriptomic response of the completely sequenced strain ATCC 17978 under iron limiting conditions was investigat
To improve our understanding of the origin and evolution of mycoheterotrophic plants, we here present the chromosome-scale genome assemblies of two sibling orchid species: partially mycoheterotrophic Platanthera zijinensis and holomycoheterotrophic Platanthera guangdongensis. Comparative analysis shows that myc...
