Advances in the field chronobiology have potential implications for physical as well as mental Platter health and human behavior.Several paradigm-shifting discoveries established key mechanistic principles for the biological clock.We trace the origins and key discoveries that helped to advance the field of chronobiology and a ground-breaking work r
Distal Consequences of Mucosal Infections in Intestinal and Lung Inflammation
Infectious diseases are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, affecting high-risk populations such as children and the elderly.Pathogens usually activate local immune responses at the site Bar Tables of infection, resulting in both protective and inflammatory responses, which may lead to local changes in the microbiota, me
Antioxidant properties of soybean seedlings inoculated with Trichoderma asperellum
This study was conducted in order to assess the effect of inoculation of soybean (Glycine max L.) seeds with Trichoderma asperellum, followed by mites (Tetranychus urticae) exposure on lipid peroxidation (LP) process and the activity of antioxidant enzymes.T.urticae is an occasional pest of soybean that causes biotic stress.Biotic stress leads to o
Observation of a half-illuminated mode in an open Penrose cavity
Abstract The illumination problem in mathematics questions the existence of a bounded region in which light rays from a point light source reedle shot do not illuminate the whole region.Since Penrose disproved the illumination problem with elliptical reflective boundaries, the interest has mostly remained in ray optics mainly because there can be n
