Chemically inducible systems

Ebook "Multigenic and induced systemic resistance in plants" has been known for the past century that plants carry genetic information for inherited resistance against many pathogenic organisms including fungi, bacteria, and viruses, and that the relationship between pathogenic organisms and hosts plants are rather complex and in some cases time dependent.

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common adverse effect of taxane treatment and can significantly affect patient quality of life. Currently, there are no effective treatments to alleviate symptoms of CIPN; thus, starting with prevention steps in high-risk patients is considered advantageous.

Cadmium (Cd)-containing chemicals can cause serious damage to biological systems. In animals and plants, Cd exposure can lead to metabolic disorders or death. However, for the most part the effects of Cd on specific biological processes are not known. DNA methylation is an important mechanism for the regulation of gene expression.

The effective combination of texts and knowledge may improve performances of natural language processing tasks. For the recognition of chemical-induced disease (CID) relations which may span sentence boundaries in an article, although existing CID systems explored the utilization for knowledge bases, the effects of different knowledge on the identification of a special CID haven’t been distinguished by these systems.

Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, a genetically diverse soil-borne pathogen with a wide host range, is a devastating plant vascular disease (Hayward, 1991). No effective chemical product is available for Ralstonia-induced wilt. Alternative methods such as biological control agents (BCAs) have shown effectiveness.

Viral diseases are one of the major factors threatening crop production worldwide. It is estimated that about 15 percent of global crop production is lost due to various plant diseases, and phytopathogenic viruses are thought to cause more than one third of plant diseases. Viruses such as TYLCV, PRSV, CMV, BBTV are some major virus epidemics which cause heavy losses in horticultural crops. Management of plant virus diseases have acquired great importance in the realm of Plant Pathology and call for effective management against them.

The uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are thought to uncouple oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria and thus generate heat. One of the UCP isoforms, UCP3, is abun-dantly expressed in skeletal muscle, the major thermogenic tissue in humans. UCP3 has been overexpressed at high levels inyeast systems,where it leads to theuncouplingof cell respiration, suggesting that UCP3may indeed be capable of dissipating the mitochondrial proton gradient.

RNA aptamers with anity for the Ras-binding domain (RBD) of Raf-1 were isolated from a degenerate pool by in vitroselection.These aptamers eciently inhibited theRas interaction with the Raf-1 RBD, and also inhibited Ras-induced Raf-1 activation in a cell-free system. The RNA aptamer with the most potent inhibitory e€ect speci®cally inhibited the RasáRaf-1 interaction and had no anity for the RBD of the RGL protein, a homolog of the Ral GDP dissociation stimulator.

Drosophilais a powerful model system to study the regula-tory and effector mechanisms of innate immunity. To iden-tify molecules induced in the course of viral infection in this insect, we have developed a model based on intrathoracic injection of the picorna-like DrosophilaCvirus(DCV).We have used MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry to compare the hemolymph of DCV infected flies and control flies. By contrast with the strong humoral response triggered by injectionof bacteriaor fungal spores, we have identifiedonly one molecule induced in the hemolymph of virus infected flies....

Despite evidence to the contrary, chemical industry critics of epidemiologic studies linking pesticides to major diseases argue that they are of limited value because of their reliance on records and study participants’ memory, among other issues. In fact, the correlation of patterns of chemical use with an effect is difficult to establish in epidemiology and therefore may underestimate hazard effects. When a correlation is established it raises serious concern.

Previous results have shown that the human oncoembryonic proteina-feto-protein (AFP) induces dose-dependent targeting apoptosis in tumor cells, accompanied by cytochromecrelease and caspase 3 activation. AFP posi-tively regulates cytochrome c⁄dATP-mediated apoptosome complex forma-tion in a cell-free system, stimulates release of the active caspases 9 and 3 and displaces cIAP-2 from the apoptosome and from its complex with recombinant caspases 3 and 9 [Semenkova et al.

Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) has been the focus of a number of stu-dies due to its ability to promote septic shock and a massive impact on the human immune system. Even though symptoms and pathology associated with SEB is well known, early molecular events that lead to lethality are still poorly understood.

I t is a great honour and joy for me to present this volume of Scripta Varia which contains the papers presented during the Study Week on “Chemical Events in the Atmosphere and their Impact on the Environment” held at the seat of the Academy from the 7th to the 11th of November, 1983. The discussions which followed each presentation are included in the volume. These proceedings are of great interest; they touch on problems which may seem diverse for a non-knowledgeable person, or insignificant to those who flee the reality of our present world.

Controlled oxidation is increasingly being practiced using solid peroxides, pH modifiers, and catalysts that promote the generation of free radicals. This new approach moderates the rate of dissolution and peroxide generation, which in turn controls that rate of reaction between peroxide and the petroleum contaminants. The use of slurried peroxides creates the opportunity to release oxidants and oxygen over a longer period, which can promote subsequent aerobic remediation.

All the phenomena of nature are characterized by motion; this is an essential property of matter, having infinity of aspects. For instance, the motion can be mechanical, physical, chemical and biological; there correspond various sciences of nature. Among them, mechanics studies the objective laws of the mechanical motion of material bodies, the simplest form of motion of matter; we will deal with such a study in what follows. The scientific study of matter has put in evidence its existence in the form of physical systems.

We live in an era with unparalleled opportunities to practice disease prevention based on knowledge of the earth environment. Although globally distributed early warning systems can monitor physical hazards such as earthquakes and tsunamis, chemical hazards on the other hand—whether actual or potential and natural or anthropogenically induced—remain difficult to accurately identify in time and space. Such hazards often have lengthy asymptomatic latency periods before disability or disease becomes evident....

The human body has various defence mechanisms to eliminate these undesirable foreign objects. Two processes are involved: chemical dissolution for soluble particles and physical translocation, i.e., transport from one place to another, for insoluble or low-solubility particles. Soluble ultrafine dusts will act at the solubilization site and will not be discussed here, since the effects are highly variable depending on the dust composition and identical to those of larger dusts which are also solubilized.
