Microbial Degradation of Pesticide Residues and an Emphasis on the Degradation of Cypermethrin and 3-phenoxy Benzoic Acid: A Review.

TL;DR: The microbial species in the environment, the study of herbicide and pesticides degrading bacteria and the mechanism and application of pesticide microbial degrading bacteria are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biodegradation of beta-cypermethrin and 3-phenoxybenzoic acid by a novel Ochrobactrum lupini DG-S-01.

TL;DR: Results reveal that DG-S-01 may possess potential to be used in bioremediation of pyrethroid-contaminated environment and was identified as Ochrobactrum lupini.

Molecular physiology and pathophysiology of tight junctions in the blood–brain barrier

TL;DR: By allowing the "loosening" of TJs and an increase in paracellular permeability, the BBB is able to "bend without breaking"; thereby, maintaining structural integrity.

Development of the blood-brain barrier.

TL;DR: Astrocytes that tightly appose endfeet onto the abluminal side of brain capillaries seem to be important for the induction and maintenance of the endothelial barrier.

Development of the Blood-Brain Barrier

TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge of the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the development and maintenance of the blood-brain barrier.

Ion Channels as Targets for Insecticides

TL;DR: At field-use rates, a neurotoxic effect of the ecdysteroid agonist RH-5849 is observed that involves blockage of both muscle and neuronal potassium channels, and the future use of ion channels as targets for chemical and genetically engineered insecticides is discussed.

Neurotoxicological Effects and the Mode of Action of Pyrethroid Insecticides

TL;DR: Neuroexcitatory symptoms of acute poisoning of vertebrates by pyrethroids are related to the ability of these insecticides to modify electrical activity in various parts of the nervous system.
