Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractSubcellular Localization Studies of Three Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyases and Cinnamate 4-Hydroxylase from Scutellaria Baicalensis Using GFP Fusion ProteinsNam Il Park, Hui Xu, Mariadhas Valan Arasu et al.The localization of three phenylalanine ammonia-lyases (PAL1, -2 and -3) and Cinnamate 4-Hydroxlase (C4H) of Scutellaria baicalensis was examined in onion epidermal cells. These genes encode key enzymes in the phenylpropanoid pathway for the synthesis of flavones. In our previous research, we isolated coding DNA for these genes from S. baicalensis, a medicinal herb rich in flavones with biological and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2015 · 7,457 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractG-2548A Leptin Promoter and Q223R Leptin Receptor Polymorphisms in Obese Mexican SubjectsP. Carrillo-Vazquez Jonathan, Lopez-Alcantar Jeronimo, Chimal-Vega Brenda et al.Leptin interaction with its receptor in the hypothalamus stimulates a specific signaling cascade that results in the synthesis of anorexigenic and orexigenic peptides in order to regulate food intake and energy expenditure. Many polymorphisms in leptin (lep) and leptin receptor (lepr) genes have been associated with body weight. In particular, G-2548A in the lep promoter and Q223R in lepr variants … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2013 · 8,645 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractZinc Deficiency and Associated T-Cell Dysfunctioning among Human Immunodeficiency Virus SeropositivesM. Andrew Pradeep, M. Thiruvalluvan, V. Nalini, J. Stella MaryProblem statement: All the nutrients in the diet play a crucial role in maintaining an optimal immune response. In both, deficient and excessive intake of nutrients can have negative consequence on the immune status and susceptibility to a variety of pathogens. Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human growth development and immune function. It plays a vital role in structure … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,041 accessesView PDF Cite
