Pulmonary ionocytes are a newly discovered airway epithelial cell type proposed to be major contributor cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease based on observations they express the transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) anion channel at higher level than any other in epithelia. Moreover, genetically manipulated experimental models that lack develop NaCl transport abnormalities and surface liquid (ASL) dehydration consistent with CF. However, no direct evidence indicates engage or contribute...
Abstract Leaf spongy mesophyll cells form an interconnected network of branched and intercellular spaces to maximize the surface area available for light capture photosynthetic gas exchange. To investigate morphogenetic events leading cell separation branching in Arabidopsis thaliana, we used mesophyll-specific promoters facilitate imaging shape microtubule (MT) organization over multiple spatiotemporal scales without interference from overlying epidermal cells. We show that enlarge by...
A controversial hypothesis pertaining to cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease is that the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel fails inhibit epithelial Na+ (ENaC), yielding increased reabsorption and airway dehydration. We use a non-invasive self-referencing Na+-selective microelectrode technique measure transport across individual folds of distal surface epithelium preparations from CFTR−/− wild-type (WT) swine. show that, under unstimulated control conditions, WT epithelia...
Extracts from Drosera species have been published as therapeutics, especially antioxidants. In this research, quercetin was screened and isolated for antioxidant properties D. indica L. in vitro plantlets. Its structure has elucidated on the basic of its spectral data mainly, 1H-, 13C-NMR, DEPT COSY, HSQC, HMBC. HPLC also applied quantitative analysis quercetin.
