Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Abscisic Acid and its Relationship to Drought Stress Based on Cowpea Varieties with Different Capability of Drought ResistanceWei Lei, Shian Huang, Shaohu Tang et al.Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) is one of the most important grain legume supplying necessarily dietary proteins. Although its can tolerate drought environment, still the severe condition can limit the growth and development of this plant. Abscisic acid (ABA) has a crucial function in stress physiology, but little information is available for methods describing ABA determination in cowpea and its relationship … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2016 · 8,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRoot Elongation, Root Surface Area and Organic Acid by Rice Seedling Under Al3+ and/or H+ StressA. Elisa Azura, J. Shamshuddin, C.I. FauziahProblem statement: Under acidic condition, Al3+ is the most common species in solution. An experiment was conducted to study the effects of Al and/or pH on rice seed germination, root morphology and organic acids release. This study was conducted at ambient temperature in Malaysia. Approach: Two experiments were conducted: (1) Rice seeds undergoing germination were exposed to 0.5 mM CaCl2 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Rodent Model of Autism: Intraventricular Infusions of Propionic Acid Increase Locomotor Activity and Induce Neuroinflammation and Oxidative Stress in Discrete Regions of Adult Rat BrainDerrick F. MacFabe, Karina Rodríguez-Capote, Jennifer E. Hoffman et al.Innate neuroinflammatory changes, increased oxidative stress and disorders of glutathione metabolism may be involved in the pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Propionic acid (PPA) is a dietary and gut bacterial short chain fatty acid which can produce brain and behavioral changes reminiscent of ASD following intraventricular infusion in rats. Adult Long-Evans rats were given intraventricular infusions of either PPA … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 12,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCOPPER STRESS ON CELLULAR CONTENTS AND FATTY ACID PROFILES IN CHLORELLA SPECIESG. Sibi, T.S. Anuraag, Geeta BafilaHigher photosynthetic efficiency and biomass production with rapid growth makes microalgae as potential candidates over other energy crops in many applications. Heavy metals influence the production of secondary metabolites and lipd content of microalgae in particular. A study was conducted using six Chlorella species under heavy metal exposure to evaluate the copper stress on biomass, cellular and lipid contents. Preliminary … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 20 Aug 2014 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFerulic Acid in Chinese Herbal Medicine: Regulating Autophagy for Oxidative Damage ReductionZhiyuan Lv, Qiaozhen Zhao, Shanbin Chen et al.Ferulic Acid (FA) is the primary functional component in herbal plants and traditional fermented foods. To comprehend the mechanism of action of ferulic acid, in terms of its regulation of autophagy, antioxidants and the inhibition of inflammatory pathways, the study was conducted. Oxidatively damaged human-derived hepatocytes were treated with FA and the processing concentration of FA is from 50-800 μm. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 1 Jun 2024 · 5,483 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSodium L-Glutamate-Induced Physiological Changes in Lactobacillus Brevis NCL912 During GABA Production Under Acidic ConditionsGui-Dong Huang, Jian Mao, Zhongwei Ji, Askaer AlatiPrevious studies showed that γ-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) can protect some GABA-producing bacteria against acid stress through glutamate decarboxylation. However, the acid stress mechanism is a comprehensive network related to numerous genes and proteins. Other than the Glutamate Decarboxylase (GAD)/GABA antiporter system, limited information is available about the physiological modifications that occur in Lactobacillus brevis during GABA production under acidic conditions. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2014 · 7,321 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of a Topical Composition of GABA and Microbial Chondroitin Sulfate on Mental Calmness and Brain FunctionMarco RuggieroThis article describes a novel topical composition constituted by Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and microbial chondroitin sulfate. This composition, formulated by the author and manufactured in a certified facility in the United States of America, exhibits potential for non-invasive intervention in anxiety management, sleep quality enhancement and promotion of brain-related functions like meditation and nonlocal consciousness. The core component comprises GABA, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2024 · 11,673 accessesView PDFCite

Schub.: Implications for Biological ControlElizabeth Thomas, Bradley Ray KroppProblem statement: The rust pathogen, Puccinia thlaspeos, is being studied as a potential biocontrol agent for the noxious weed dyer’s woad. Although its disease etiology is well understood, very little has been learned about the effect of environmental stresses on infection. Approach: Dyer’s woad plants were exposed to different levels of oxidative stress, salinity stress, osmotic stress, dehydration, and cold … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2010 · 8,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProphylactic Effects of Melatonin on Sodium Valproate-Induced Neural Tube Defects and Skeletal Malformations in Rat EmbryosOmolbanin Rahgazar, Reza Ranjbar, Hossien Najafzadeh Varzi, Mahmood Khaksary MahabadyProblem statement: Some reports showed the teratogenic effects of sodium valproate can be prevented by application of antioxidant drugs and stimulation of the maternal immune system. Therefore, in this study, the prophylactic effect of melatonin on teratogenic effects of sodium valproate was compared. Approach: This study was performed on 31 pregnant rats that were divided into five groups. Control group … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferences in the Response of Diploid and Tetraploid Anthurium andraeanum Seedling Roots to Salt StressYun Zhang, Yongping Zhang, Yongxu Qiao et al.To investigate the effects of salt stress on the growth, development, and endogenous hormone content of roots in diploid and tetraploid seedlings of Anthurium andraeanum, the enhanced salt tolerance was elucidated. The seedlings of A. andraeanum 'Pink champion' were placed at NaCl concentrations of 0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 mmol·L⁻¹.
