Deposition of Triterpenoids and Steroids in Cuticular Waxes of Representative Fruits of Rosaceae Family during Their Development and Maturation
Many chemical changes occur during fruit ripening, not only in the mesocarp but also in the epicarp, such as changes in triterpenoid and steroid content...
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Fibrosis Potentially Explained by Abnormal NFAT5 Physiology in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Fibroblasts
Chronic inflammation and fibrotic tissue development by fibroblasts characterise Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5 (NFAT5), a promyogenic factor that responds...
Hydrothermal Treatment to Produce Honeycomb-like Structure of Hierarchical Carbon from Intsia, spp Waste Wood: Preparation and Characterisation
Hydrothermal treatment of Intsia spp wood waste resulted in the formation of hierarchical carbon structures resembling honeycombs. The goal of this research is to see...
Study on Synthesis, Characterization and Antituberculosis Activity of Biologically Nanostructured Zinc and Titanium Metal Compounds
Using an aqueous extract of horse gramme, green chemistry was employed to generate nano-range sized titanium and zinc compounds from their macro-sizes (Macrotyloma uniflorum). Through...
Inhibition of 6-Methylsulfinylhexyl Isothiocyanate for Cell Cycle Progression in Quiescent JB6 Cells Stimulated with Fetal Bovine Serum, Accompanied by Suppression of Cyclin A2 Expression
Wasabi contains a chemical called 6-Methylsulfinyhexyl isothiocyanate (6-MSITC) (Wasabia japonica Matsumura). In quiescent JB6 cells, 6-MSITC inhibited cell cycle progression when activated with epidermal growth...
Transformation of Organo-Modified Thin Plate-Shaped OCP to Laminated Hexagonal HAP Nanocrystals
Under hydrothermal conditions at 180°C for 3 hours, laminated hexagonal thin plate-shaped hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanocrystals are generated from organically salt of dicarboxylic acid (e.g. succinic...
A Reaction-Diffusion-Reaction System for Forming Periodic Precipitation Bands of Cu-Fe-Based Prussian Blue Analogues: A Recent Study
Through coupled electrochemical processes, reactant ion diffusion affected by electric field, and precipitation reactions, we offer a simple and new technique for forming precipitation patterns...
