Bean plants subjected to a sodium chloride concentratioz about onetenth that of seawater for 1 week suffered no damage if the calcium concentration of the nutrient solution was 1 millimole per liter or higher, but at lower calcium concentrations damage was severe and apparently due to a massive breakthrough of sodium into the leaves.

The amino acid permease contributes to tomato growth and salt tolerance by mediating branched-chain amino acid transport.

Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) are essential amino acids in tomato () required for protein synthesis, which also modulate growth and abiotic stress responses. To date, little is known about their uptake and transport in tomato especially under abiotic stress. Here, the tomato () gene was identified as an amino acid transporter that restored mutant yeast cell growth on media with a variety of amino acids, including BCAAs.

Bioremediation of trichloroethene (TCE)-contaminated sites often leads to groundwater acidification, while nitrate-polluted sites tend to generate alkalization. TCE and nitrate often coexist at contaminated sites; however, the pH variation caused by nitrate self-alkalization and TCE self-acidification and how these processes affect nitrate reduction and reductive dichlorination, have not been studied. This study investigated the interaction between nitrate and TCE, two common groundwater co-contaminants, during bioreduction in serum bottles containing synthetic mineral salt media and microbial consortia.

Hal5 gene is involved in halo-tolerance of during high salt stress. Ethanol stress and high salt stress have similarities, as both decrease the availability of water for cells and strain the osmotic homeostasis across the cell membrane. The Hal5 over-expression strain of yeast has more ethanol tolerance, but the Hal5 null mutant strain also has more ethanol tolerance than the wild-type strain.

The halophyte Eutrema salsugineum is naturally distributed in saline-alkali soil and has been proposed as a model plant for understanding plant salt tolerance. As one of the largest and most diverse TF families, basic leucine zipper motif (bZIP) TFs perform robust functions in plant growth and environmental response, however the generalized information of EsbZIP genes and its regulatory role in salt tolerance has not been systematically studied to date. Here, we identified and characterized the bZIP members in E.

Clin Cancer Res

Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY, United States.
Background: Data in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) xenografts defined the seleno-L-methionine (SLM) dose and the plasma selenium concentrations associated with the enhancement of HIF1α/2α degradation, stabilization of tumor vasculature, enhanced drug delivery, and efficacy of axitinib. The data provided the rationale for the development of this phase I clinical trial of SLM and axitinib in advanced or metastatic relapsed ccRCC.
Patients And Methods: Patients were ≥18 years with histologically and radiologically confirmed advanced or metastatic ccRCC who had received at least one prior systemic therapy, which could include axitinib (last dose ≥6 months prior to enrollment).
