Mesenchymal Stromal Cells from Healthy and Inflamed Human Gingiva Respond Differently to Porphyromonas gingivalis
(MDPI, Basel, 2022)
Gingiva-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (GMSCs) have been shown to play an important role in periodontitis. However, how P. gingivalis, one of the key etiological agents of the disease, affects healthy (H)- and periodontitis ...
In Silico Characterisation of the Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) Protein Families and Their Role in Desiccation Tolerance in Ramonda serbica Panc
(MDPI, Basel, 2022)
Ramonda serbica Panc. is an ancient resurrection plant able to survive a long desiccation period and recover metabolic functions upon watering. The accumulation of protective late embryogenesis abundant proteins (LEAPs) ...
The Significance of MGMT Promoter Methylation Status in Diffuse Glioma
(International Journal of Molecular SciencesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022)
A single-institution observational study with 43 newly diagnosed diffuse gliomas defined the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1/2) gene mutation status and evaluated the prognostic relevance of the methylation status ...
Carbon and Nitrogen Allocation between the Sink and Source Leaf Tissue in Response to the Excess Excitation Energy Conditions
(International Journal of Molecular SciencesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023)
Plants are inevitably exposed to extreme climatic conditions that lead to a disturbed balance between the amount of absorbed energy and their ability to process it. Variegated leaves with photosynthetically active green ...
Lactobacillus brevis BGZLS10-17 and Lb. plantarum BGPKM22 Exhibit Anti-Inflammatory Effect by Attenuation of NF-kappa B and MAPK Signaling in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells
(MDPI, Basel, 2022)
Bronchial epithelial cells are exposed to environmental influences, microbiota, and pathogens and also serve as a powerful effector that initiate and propagate inflammation by the release of proinflammatory mediators. ...
Orally Administrated Lactiplantibacillus plantarum BGAN8-Derived EPS-AN8 Ameliorates Cd Hazards in Rats
(International Journal of Molecular SciencesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023)
Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic metal that is distributed worldwide. Exposure to it is correlated with a vast number of diseases and organism malfunctions. Exopolysaccharides (EPS) derived from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ...
Reactive and Senescent Astroglial Phenotypes as Hallmarks of Brain Pathologies
(MDPI, Basel, 2022)
Astrocytes, as the most abundant glial cells in the central nervous system, are tightly integrated into neural networks and participate in numerous aspects of brain physiology and pathology. They are the main homeostatic ...
Differential Antioxidant Response to Supplemental UV-B Irradiation and Sunlight in Three Basil Varieties
(International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023)
Three basil plant varieties (Ocimum basilicum var. Genovese, Ocimum × citriodorum, and Ocimum basilicum var. purpurascens) were grown under moderate light (about 300 µmol photons m−2 s−1) in a glasshouse or growth chamber ...
Enhanced Antimicrobial Activity of Biocompatible Bacterial Cellulose Films via Dual Synergistic Action of Curcumin and Triangular Silver Nanoplates
(International Journal of Molecular SciencesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022)
Curcumin and triangular silver nanoplates (TSNP)-incorporated bacterial cellulose (BC) films present an ideal antimicrobial material for biomedical applications as they afford a complete set of requirements, including a ...
CRISPR/Cas9-Targeted Disruption of Two Highly Homologous Arabidopsis thaliana DSS1 Genes with Roles in Development and the Oxidative Stress Response
(International Journal of Molecular SciencesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023)
Global climate change has a detrimental effect on plant growth and health, causing serious losses in agriculture. Investigation of the molecular mechanisms of plant responses to various environmental pressures and the ...
