In this paper have been studied properties of a product that arose from the interaction of malonaldehyde with collagen. It has been shown by an amino acid analysis that malonaldehyde reacts in a significant way on lysine and tyrosine residues. The partcipation of tyrosine in the reaction with malonaldehyde has been further demonstrated by means of spectrophotometry. It has also been found that the hydrolysis by pronase is considerably modified with the cross linked collagen.

Aquaporins are widely present in the plant kingdom and play important roles in plant response to abiotic adversity stresses such as water and temperature extremes. In this study, we investigated the regulatory role of NTPIP2;4 on drought tolerance in tobacco at physiological and transcriptional levels. In this experiment, we constructed an NtPIP2;4 overexpression vector and genetically transformed tobacco variety 'K326' to investigate the mechanism of NtPIP2;4 gene in regulating drought tolerance in tobacco at physiological and transcriptomic levels.

The JAZ protein family, serving as a key negative regulator in the jasmonic acid signaling pathway, interacts with transcription factors to play an essential role in plant growth, development, and stress responses. However, minimal research has focused on the role of JAZ transcription factors in regulating the growth, development, and stress responses of maize. In this study, we cloned the JAZ gene ZmJAZ13 from maize (Zea mays L.

This study aims to investigate the mechanism of tanshinone Ⅱ_A(Tan Ⅱ_A) in protecting mice from diethylinitrosamine(DEN)/carbon tetrachloride(CCl_4)/ethanol(C_2H_5OH)-induced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) and HepG2 cells from hydrogen peroxide(H_2O_2)-induced oxidative damage via the phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt) and nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)/heme oxygenase 1(HO-1) signaling pathways. Sixty male C57BL/6J mice were grouped as follows: control, model, low, medium, and high-dose(10, 20, 40 mg·kg~(-1), respectively) Tan Ⅱ_A, and colchicine(0.2 mg·kg~(-1)), with 10 mice in each group.

The rising concentration of microplastics (MPs) in aquatic environments poses increasing ecological risks, yet their impacts on biological communities remain largely unrevealed. This study investigated how aminopolystyrene microplastics (PS-NH) affect physiology and gene expression using the freshwater alga sp. as the test species.
