Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism attenuates vascular apoptosis and injury via rescuing protein kinase B activation
(American Heart Association, 2008)
Emerging evidence indicates that mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) blockade reduces the risk of cardiovascular events beyond those predicted by its blood pressure-lowering actions; however, the underlying mechanisms remain ...
Isolation and characterization of a baculovirus associated with the insect parasitoid wasp, Cotesia marginiventris, or its host, Trichoplusia ni
(University of Wisconsin, 2008)
A multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (MNPV) was isolated from Trichoplusia ni (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae that had been stung by the parasitoid Cotesia marginiventris (Cresson) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). The wild ...
Electrochemical properties of carbon nanoparticles entrapped in silica matrix
(Electrochemical Society, 2008)
Carbon-based electrode materials have been widely used for many years for electrochemical charge storage, energy generation, and catalysis. We have developed an electrode material with high specific capacitance by entrapping ...
Regulation of floral organ abscission in Arabidopsis thaliana
(The National Academy of Sciences of the USA, 2008)
Abscission is a developmental program that results in the active shedding of infected or nonfunctional organs from a plant body. Here, we establish a signaling pathway that controls abscission in Arabidopsis thaliana from ...
