Transcriptional changes occurring in grape berries (Vitis vinefera L. cv Cabernet Sauvignon) cultured in vitro with high (468 mM) and low (58 mM) concentrations of glucose in the culture medium was verified. Gene expression profiling was done using the Nimblegen whole genome array with 3 biological ...
Obesity and its consequences on cardiometabolic health have been associated to low-grade inflammation. The most diverse source of dietary anti-inflammatory compounds is polyphenols and especially anthocyanins, which are major polyphenols in bilberries (Vaccinium myrtillus). We investigated the effec...
INTRODUCTION: Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is the most common cardiac condition in adult dogs. The disease progresses over several years and affected dogs may develop congestive heart failure (HF). Research has shown that myocardial metabolism is altered in cardiac dise...
The function of the plant hormone jasmonic acid (JA) in development of tomato flowers was analyzed with a mutant defective in JA perception (jasmonate-insensitive1-1, jai1-1). In contrast to Arabidopsis JA-insensitive plants that are male sterile, the tomato mutant jai1-1 exhibits major defects in f...
