Endurance and electromyographic assessment of abdominopelvic motor control in women with primary dysmenorrhea: a cross-sectional study.

Primary dysmenorrhea (PD), a prevalent menstrual condition characterized by pelvic pain during the menstrual cycle, significantly impacts the quality of life of women and produces increased pain sensitivity that can persist throughout the menstrual cycle. However, scientific literature has not studied whether there are implications for alterations in muscle function and endurance in the abdominopelvic region during the non-painful phases of the menstrual cycle. The aim of this study was to compare muscle function and endurance capacity in the abdominopelvic region in women with PD versus women without this condition.

Properties of Human Gastric Lipase Produced by Plant Roots.

The properties of recombinant human gastric lipase produced in roots have been investigated with the goal of determining the potential of the enzyme. This enzyme is stably bound to roots and can be extracted using a buffer at pH 2.2.

Overexpression Promotes Callogenesis and Somatic Embryogenesis in Gaertn.

The induction of plant somatic embryogenesis is often a limiting step for plant multiplication and genetic manipulation in numerous crops. It depends on multiple signaling developmental processes involving phytohormones and the induction of specific genes. The gene () is required for the production of plant embryogenic stem cells.

Arabidopsis Hairy Roots Producing High Level of Active Human Gastric Lipase.

Arabidopsis hairy roots were used to produce human gastric lipase. When treated with 2,4-D, the hairy roots developed into thick organs that produced more protein than untreated roots. This was first assessed using green fluorescent protein-producing root lines from which the protein diffused into the culture medium.
