In international pistol shooting competition the performance improvement needed to be able to move into a medal winning position in a final from fourth position is 1.5 points (Bedford et al., 2012). It may be expected therefore, that by providing a method of reducing tremor resulting in a corresponding performance improvement. This research consists of two studies investigating the physiological response and the shooting performance of elite pistol shooters.

The variations of response could be signals of tolerance or adaptive mechanisms of the leaves under the determined concentrations. Deeper anatomic and physiological studies can contribute to the explanation of the role of cell epidermis of faba bean in its adaptation to ions of cadmium.

A Field experiment was conducted at college form, agricultural college bapatla in clay loam soils during Rabi 2013-14 to study the effects of Ethrel, kinetin and boron foliar application on physiology of growth, development and yield of chickpea (Var. KAK 2) in randomized block design with eight treatments viz., 250ppm Ethrel at 25 DAS (T1), 10 ppm kinetin at 35 DAS (T2), 0.25% boron at 45 DAS (T3), 250 ppm Ethrel at 25DAS + 10 ppm Kinetin at 35DAS (T4), 10 ppm Kinetin at 35DAS + 0.25% boron at 45 DAS (T5), 250 ppm Ethrel at 25DAS + 0.

Considering accurate constitutive models is of the utmost importance when capturing the mechanical response of soft tissue and biomedical materials under physiological loading conditions. This paper investigated the behaviour of porcine myocardium in passive rested hearts. This was done by applying biaxial loads on the myocardium.

The signaling properties of the gasotransmitter molecule hydrogen sulfide (H2S), which is endogenously generated in plant cells, are mainly observed during persulfidation, a protein post-translational modification (PTM) that affects redox-sensitive cysteine residues. There is growing experimental evidence that H2S in higher plants may function as a mechanism of response to environmental stress conditions.

Magnesium (Mg)-deficiency is one of the most prevalent physiological disorders causing a reduction in Citrus yield and quality. ‘Xuegan’ (Citrus sinensis) seedlings were irrigated for 16 weeks with nutrient solution containing 2 mM (Mg-sufficiency) or 0 mM (Mg-deficiency) Mg(NO3)2.

Phytocystatins (PhyCys) act as endogenous regulators of cysteine proteases (CysProt) involved in various physiological processes. Besides, PhyCys are involved in plant reactions to abiotic stresses like drought or darkness and have been used as effective molecules against different pests and pathogens.

Under high plant density, intensifying competition among individual plants led to overconsumption of energy and nutrients and resulted in an almost dark condition in the lower strata of the canopy, which suppressed the photosynthetic potential of the shaded leaves. Leaf removal could help to ameliorate this problem and increase crop yields.

Rice is one of the most important crop plants over the world. Our work studied on the physiological responses of rice seedlings (Oryza sativa cv. Dongjin) under drought condition by withholding water. In response to drought treatment, three-week-old rice seedlings exhibited typically morphological responses as leafs rolling and drying at 48 h after exposure to water deficit.

The transcription factor serum response factor (SRF) regulates expression of growth factor-dependent genes and muscle-specific genes in vertebrates. Homologous factors regulate differentiation of some ectodermic tissues in invertebrates. To explore the molecular basis of these different physiological functions, the functionality of human, Drosophila melanogaster and Artemia franciscana SRFs in mammalian cells has been compared in this article. D. melanogaster and, to a lesser extend, A.

Plant lipoxygenases (LOXs) are a class of dioxygenases which display diverse functions in several physiological processes such as growth, development and response to biotic and abiotic stresses.Even though LOXs have been characterized from several plant species, the physiological role of seed LOXs is still unclear.With the aim to better clarify the occurrence of LOXs and their influence on hazelnut seed quality, we carried out the biochemical and molecular characterization of the main LOX isoforms expressed during seed development....

Lactoferrin (LF) is a Fe 3+ -binding glycoprotein, first recognized in milk and then in other human epithelial secretions and barrier fluids. Many different functions have been attributed to LF, including protection from iron-induced lipid peroxidation, immunomodulation and cell growthregulation, DNA binding, and transcriptional acti-vation. Its physiological role is still unclear, but it has been suggested to be responsible for primary defense against microbial and viral infection.

Ca 2+ and cAMP are ubiquitous second messengers in euk-aryotes and control numerous physiological responses ran-ging fromfertilization to cell death induction 1 . Todistinguish between these different responses, their subtle regulation in time, space and amplitude is needed. Therefore, the char-acterization of the signalling process requires measurement of secondmessengers with tools of precise localization, high dynamic range and as little disturbance of cell physiology as possible.

Metabolically unstable proteins are involved in a multitude of regulatory networks, including those that control cell signaling, the cell cycle and in many responses to physiological stress. In the present study, we have deter-mined the stability and characterized the degradation process of some members of the Gq class of heterotrimeric G proteins. Pulse-chase experi-ments in HEK293 cells indicated a rapid turnover of endogenously expressed Gaq and overexpressed Gaq and Ga16 subunits.

As it has not yet been established whether the second messengers involved in the neutrophil response have identical or specific signalling requirements for each physiological function, protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms and mito-gen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) were studied in human chemotaxis triggered by the full agonist for-Met-Leu-Phe-OMe (fMLP-OMe) and the ‘pure’ chemoattractant for-Thp-Leu-Ain-OMe [Thp1,Ain3] analogue. Experiments were performed in the presence or absence of extracellular Ca 2+ , known to be an important modulator of second messengers....

The effects of pesticide contamination on the metabolism of marine mol-luscs are poorly documented. We investigated the response of a marine bivalve, the Pacific oyster,Crassostrea gigas, using a suppression subtrac-tive hybridization method to identify up- and down-regulated genes after a 30-day exposure period to herbicides (a cocktail of atrazine, diuron and isoproturon, and to the single herbicide glyphosate). A total of 137 unique differentially expressed gene sequences was identified, as well as their asso-ciated physiological process....
