New findings in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) anther culture
In this research, some independent experiments were carried out for investigating the effects of microspore developmental stage, bud pretreatments (cold, heat and Ca), and embryo induction medium on anther culture of some strawberry cultivars. The results showed that the percentages of responsive and embryogenic anthers in cultivar Paros in liquid medium were influenced not only by different de...
متن کاملEstrogens Receptors-New Players in Spermatogenesis
The mammalian testis is a complex organ that serves two important functions, synthesis of steroids, with significant amount of estrogenic hormones produced and production of spermatozoa. Estrogen receptors (ERs) are expressed in cells of the testis as well as the epididymal epithelium. We have demonstrated that estrogen receptor expression is higher in reproductive tissues as compared to non-re...
متن کاملUnresolved issues in pre-meiotic anther development
Compared to the diversity of other floral organs, the steps in anther ontogeny, final cell types, and overall organ shape are remarkably conserved among Angiosperms. Defects in pre-meiotic anthers that alter cellular composition or function typically result in male-sterility. Given the ease of identifying male-sterile mutants, dozens of genes with key roles in early anther development have been...
متن کاملMicroglia: The new players in regulating the brain development
Microglia are the immune cells in the central nervous system and control the brain homeostasis [1]. When microglia find either infected or dead cells in brain, they are activated and ingest debris to maintain the normal brain condition. Although microglia modulate brain environment via macrophage-like aspects, they also play important roles in the developing brain. In the past few years, severa...
متن کاملPARP-1 and PARP-2: New players in tumour development.
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) and PARP-2 belong to a family of enzymes that, using NAD(+) as a substrate, catalyze poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of proteins. PARP-1 and PARP-2 catalytic activity is stimulated by DNA-strand breaks targeting mainly proteins involved in chromatin structure and DNA metabolism, providing strong support for a dual role of both PARP-1 and PARP-2 in the DNA damage re...
