Several studies point to the existence of an inverse correlation between cellular lipid peroxidation and both cell proliferation and neoplastic transformation. In anaplastic cell lines products of membrane lipid peroxidation are very low or undetectable. Furthermore numerous results demonstrate effect of lipid peroxidation products on central biochemical pathways and intracellular signalling at physiological concentrations. 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) is one of the most active products of lipid peroxidation. The restoration of HNE physiological concentrations in neoplastic cells may inhibit cell proliferation and modulate cell re-differentiation. This review try to summarize and critically discuss the effects of physiological concentrations of HNE on normal and neoplastic cell line.

Estimating CO response in a mixed broadleaf forest using the dynamic assimilation technique.

Background: Estimating the CO response of forest trees is of great significance in plant photosynthesis research. CO response measurement is traditionally employed under steady state conditions. With the development of open-path gas exchange systems, the Dynamic Assimilation Technique (DAT), allows measurement under non-steady state conditions.

The amino acid l-arginine (Arg) plays important roles in multiple metabolic and physiological processes, and changes in its concentration have been implicated in pathological processes. While it is important to measure Arg levels in biological systems directly and in real-time, existing Arg sensors respond to l-ornithine or l-lysine. Here we report ArgS1, a new Arg sensor.

Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic heavy metal contaminant found in soil and water due to human activities such as mining and industrial discharge. Cd can accumulate in the body, leading to various health risks such as organ injuries, osteoporosis, renal dysfunction, Type 2 diabetes (T2DM), reproductive diseases, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, and cancers. The gut is particularly sensitive to Cd toxicity as it acts as the primary barrier against orally ingested Cd.

The initial performance of seedlings of tree species from different functional groups, regarding the growth-defense tradeoff, might determine its long-term success during the rehabilitation of mining areas. We monitored the field performance of six native tree species of the Atlantic Forest in the Fundão dam tailing that has been under rehabilitation for 35 months. Additionally, we explored the morphophysiological traits driving the superior performance of three species.

Environmental temperature impacts the physiological processes of reptiles, determines their hours of activity per day, and may constrain their ability to meet critical ecological requirements. When environmental temperatures reach freezing, a few lizard species exhibit two mechanisms (supercooling and freezing tolerance) to survive freezing, and these two processes depend on cryoprotective molecules, such as glucose. Organisms produce high glucose concentrations to reach lower than normal crystallisation points, and this blood glucose concentration can double after freezing.
