TL;DR: Using long-term observations and coupled model experiments, this work provides compelling evidence that the enhanced Indian Ocean warming potentially weakens the land-sea thermal contrast, dampens the summer monsoon Hadley circulation, and thereby reduces the rainfall over parts of South Asia.
Abstract: There are large uncertainties looming over the status and fate of the South Asian summer monsoon, with several studies debating whether the monsoon is weakening or strengthening in a changing climate. Our analysis using multiple observed datasets demonstrates a significant weakening trend in summer rainfall during 1901–2012 over the central-east and northern regions of India, along the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna basins and the Himalayan foothills, where agriculture is still largely rain-fed. Earlier studies have suggested an increase in moisture availability and land-sea thermal gradient in the tropics due to anthropogenic warming, favouring an increase in tropical rainfall. Here we show that the land-sea thermal gradient over South Asia has been decreasing, due to rapid warming in the Indian Ocean and a relatively subdued warming over the subcontinent. Using long-term observations and coupled model experiments, we provide compelling evidence that the enhanced Indian Ocean warming potentially weakens the land-sea thermal contrast, dampens the summer monsoon Hadley circulation, and thereby reduces the rainfall over parts of South Asia.

TL;DR: Besides synthesis of phytochelatins, availability of GSH and concerted activity of GR seem to play a central role for Bacopa plants to combat oxidative stress caused by metal and to detoxify it.

TL;DR: It appears certain that the Bcl family of proteins is involved in the apoptotic pathway, and these proteins in turn affect the processing of interleukin‐1β converting enzyme (ICE)/caspases.
Abstract: Apoptosis is now recognized as a normal feature in the development of the nervous system and may also play a role in neurodegenerative diseases and aging. This phenomenon has been investigated intensively during the last 6-7 years, and the progress made in this field is reviewed here. Besides a few in vivo studies, a variety of neuronal preparations from various parts of the brain, the majority of which were primary cultures, and some cell lines have been investigated. Several apoptosis-inducing agents have been identified, and these include lack of neurotrophic support, neurotransmitters, neurotoxicants, modulators of protein phosphorylation and calcium homeostasis, DNA-damaging agents, oxidative stress, nitric oxide, and ceramides. The precise signaling cascade is not well established, and there are lacunae in many suggested pathways. However, it appears certain that the Bcl family of proteins is involved in the apoptotic pathway, and these proteins in turn affect the processing of interleukin-1beta converting enzyme (ICE)/caspases. The available evidence suggests that there may be several apoptotic pathways that may depend on the cell type and the inducing agent, and most of the pathways may converge at the ICE/caspases step.

TL;DR: Hydrogen bonds, X-H...A, formed by weak donors and acceptors, were generally dismissed as being of little consequence before and even during the 1970s but during the two following decades they were implicated as being significant in many small molecule crystal structures, and also in solution.

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of metal-halide perovskite nanocrystals can be found in this article, where researchers having expertise in different fields (chemistry, physics, and device engineering) have joined together to provide a state-of-the-art overview and future prospects of metalhalide nanocrystal research.
Abstract: Metal-halide perovskites have rapidly emerged as one of the most promising materials of the 21st century, with many exciting properties and great potential for a broad range of applications, from photovoltaics to optoelectronics and photocatalysis. The ease with which metal-halide perovskites can be synthesized in the form of brightly luminescent colloidal nanocrystals, as well as their tunable and intriguing optical and electronic properties, has attracted researchers from different disciplines of science and technology. In the last few years, there has been a significant progress in the shape-controlled synthesis of perovskite nanocrystals and understanding of their properties and applications. In this comprehensive review, researchers having expertise in different fields (chemistry, physics, and device engineering) of metal-halide perovskite nanocrystals have joined together to provide a state of the art overview and future prospects of metal-halide perovskite nanocrystal research.
