Nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) provides an essential photoprotection in plants, assuring safe dissipation of excess energy as heat under high light. Although excitation transfer (EET) between chlorophyll (Chl) and carotenoid (Car) molecules plays important role NPQ, detailed information on the EET mechanism vivo conditions, including triggering activation dynamics, is very limited. Here, we observed Chl Qy state Car S1 high-light-exposed spinach thylakoid membranes. The kinetic spectral...
Protection of photosystem II against damage from excess light by nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) includes responses on a wide range timescales. The onset the various phases NPQ overlap in time making it difficult to discern if they influence each other or involve different photophysical mechanisms. To unravel complex relationship known actors NPQ, we perform fluorescence lifetime snapshot measurements throughout multiple cycles alternating 2 min periods high and darkness. By comparing data...
Significance The balance between light harvesting and photoprotection is a critical component of photosynthetic efficiency must be maintained in fluctuating conditions. Two xanthophylls play key roles the vascular plant response to changes intensity: zeaxanthin lutein. Chlorophyll fluorescence decay studies Arabidopsis thaliana mutants enabling isolation individual contributions lutein kinetic model quenching make it possible mutant data predict combined influence on nonphotochemical WT A....
Insulin resistance (IR) is a complex metabolic disorder that underlies several human diseases, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Despite extensive research, the precise mechanisms underlying IR development remain poorly understood. Here, we provide new insights into mechanistic connections between cellular alterations associated with IR, increased ceramides, deficiency of coenzyme Q (CoQ), mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress. We demonstrate elevated levels...
With neck, aging the cervicomental angle becomes obtuse and may be influenced by hyoid bone aging. An understanding of position changes with will further our its role in neck contour changes.
Facial shape is significantly influenced by the underlying facial bony skeleton. Sexual dimorphisms in these structures are crucial for craniofacial, aesthetic, and gender-affirming surgery. Previous studies have examined orbits upper face, but less known about midface. This study aimed to elucidate sexual dimorphism midface region, focusing on maxilla zygomatic bones.
Abstract The success of radial head arthroplasty (RHA) relies on the design implant and precision surgical technique, with preoperative planning potentially playing a crucial role. accurate establishment patient‐specific anatomical coordinate system (ACS) is essential for this process. This study tested hypothesis that an innovative automated method would be accurate, reliable, efficient framework to determine ACS proximal radius, which step toward improving RHA planning. We used advanced...
