Objective(s) Diabetes related dysfunction of resistance vessels is associated with vascular occlusive diseases. Vasorelaxant agents may have a role in control of diabetic cardiovascular complications. Gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) has demonstrated to cause vasorelaxation. The present study was designed to determine i) the vasorelaxatory effect of GABA on diabetic vessels and ii) the role of e...

Fitness costs of resistance are among the most widely discussed explanations for the evolution of induced resistance, but studies on induced resistance to pathogens are scarce and contradictory. In the present study the influence of nitrogen supply, length of the growing period and competition on the seed production of Arabidopsis in response to treatment with the chemical resistance elicitor B...

Physiological cell conditions of solid tumors, such as glucose starvation and hypoxia,induce cellular resistance to topoisomerase II-directed drugs. Here, we show that the induction of drug resistance is mediated by nuclear accumulation of proteasomes, large multicatalytic protease complexes. We found that the nuclear proteasome accumulation during glucose starvation was attenuated by stable ex...

The Arabidopsis disease resistance gene RPSP is involved in recognition of bacterial pathogens carrying the avirulence gene avrRpt2, and the RPMl resistance gene is involved in recognition of pathogens carrying avrRpml or avrB. We identified and cloned two Arabidopsis genes, AIGl and AIG2 (for a_vrRpt2-~nduced gene), that exhibit RPSPand avrFfptbdependent induction early after infection with Ps...

EmrAB operon is known for multidrug resistance in bacteria and yet has not been reported related to heavy metal resistance or antibiotics/heavy metal co-resistance. Strain Staphylococcus aureus LZ-01 which was isolated from industrial wastewater discharging site can co-resist to 6 mM Cr(VI) and 0.75 mg/ml ampicillin. Transcriptome data showed that an emrAB operon was upregulated (1.29-folds for...

This paper analyzes the impact of using Gopinath observer on robustness current and torque model predictive controls for three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors. The performance two controllers are compared a magnetic flux estimator based voltage Gopinath’s through simulations dynamic behavior machine when errors introduced in its resistance values.
