Nanopriming technology for enhancing germination and starch metabolism of aged rice seeds using phytosynthesized silver nanoparticles

TL;DR: Different mechanisms underlying nanopriming-induced seed germination were proposed, including creation of nanopores for enhanced water uptake, rebooting ROS/antioxidant systems in seeds, generation of hydroxyl radicals for cell wall loosening, and nanocatalyst for fastening starch hydrolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Interplay of Reactive Oxygen Species, Hypoxia, Inflammation, and Sirtuins in Cancer Initiation and Progression.

TL;DR: The attention will be focused on the contribution of ROS to the signaling of HIF, NFκB, and Sirtuins as a leitmotif of cancer initiation and progression.

Aquaporins facilitate hydrogen peroxide entry into guard cells to mediate ABA- and pathogen-triggered stomatal closure.

TL;DR: A mechanism whereby phosphorylation of AtPIP2;1 Ser121 by BAK1 and/or OST1 is triggered in response to flg22 to activate its water and H2O2 transport activities is proposed and suggests a general signaling role of aquaporin in contexts involving H 2O2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aquaporin-9 facilitates membrane transport of hydrogen peroxide in mammalian cells.

TL;DR: It is shown that AQP9 facilitates the membrane transport of H2O2 in human and mice cells, and H 2O2-induced cytotoxicity was attenuated by AQP 9 deficiency in humanand mice cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aquaporin-5: from structure to function and dysfunction in cancer

TL;DR: The structural and functional features of AQP5 are addressed, detailing its tissue distribution and functions in human body, its expression pattern in a variety of tumors, and highlighting the underlying mechanisms involved in carcinogenesis.

GROMACS 4: Algorithms for highly efficient, load-balanced, and scalable molecular simulation

TL;DR: A new implementation of the molecular simulation toolkit GROMACS is presented which now both achieves extremely high performance on single processors from algorithmic optimizations and hand-coded routines and simultaneously scales very well on parallel machines.
