treated with different coating and application of methyl salicylate and salicylic acid are used for reduce chilling injury and maintain the quality of citrus fruit during storage. this experiment was carried out in order to study enzyme activity that involved in reducing chilling injury and maintain the fruit quality based on split plot design with three replications. fruits was treated and the...

BACKGROUND/AIM The aim of this research was to determine the effects of physical activity level (PAL) and physical fitness on falling parameters in community-dwelling elderly people. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-six elderly people were grouped as low PAL group (group 1, n: 38) and high PAL (group 2, n: 38) according to their PAL scores. PAL was measured by the Physical Activity Scale for the...

Objective: High physical fitness (PF) level is a significant health determinant in children and adolescents so that it important to identify the factors affecting PF this population. Despite available studies highlighting relationship between characteristics of children, there still need uncover how status lifestyle impact different indicators. Thus, purpose study investigate fitness, profile c...

Mature soybean (Glycine max L. cv Harosoy 63) leaves normally contain kaempferol-3-glycosides but they accumulate no other flavonoids. Whole leaves sprayed with the diphenyl ether herbicide Acifluorfen and maintained in the light developed small necrotic lesions and accumulated isoflavone aglycones, isoflavone glucosides, and pterocarpans. Isoflavonoid accumulation was preceded by induced activ...

BACKGROUND Arterial stiffness is an important predictor of cardiovascular risk besides classic cardiovascular risk factors. Previous studies showed that arterial stiffness is increased in patients with COPD compared to healthy controls and exercise training may reduce arterial stiffness. Since physical inactivity is frequently observed in patients with COPD and exercise training may improve art...

PAL (EC 4.3.1.5) plays a key role in linking primary metabolism to phenylpropanoid metabolism by catalyzing the deamination of L-Phe to produce trans-cinnamic acid. This reaction is considered a key step in phenylpropanoid metabolism. In bean (Edwards et al., 1985) and parsley (Lois et al., 1989), PAL genes are transcriptionally activated by elicitor treatment, UV light, and wounding. We report...

Micronutrient requirements do not scale linearly with physical activity-related energy expenditure (AEE). Inactive persons may have insufficient micronutrient intake because of low energy intake (EI). We extracted data from NHANES 2003-2006 on 4015 adults (53 ± 18 years (mean ± SD), 29 ± 6 kg/m², 48% women) with valid physical activity (accelerometry) and food intake (2 × 24 h-dietary recall) m...

To investigate the lignifications process and its physiological significance under Karnal Bunt (KB), the changes in enzymes responsible for lignifications likes, phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), were determined in resistant (HD-29) and susceptible genotype (WH-542) of wheat during different developmental stages. The PAL gene was cloned and sequenced. The expression of PAL gene was measured by...

Excessive fat ectopically deposited in the non-adipose tissues is considered as one of leading causes myopathy. The aim this study was to investigate role Dihydroartemisinin (DHA) palmitate (PAL)-incubated H9c2 cells (lipotoxicity-induced cell injury model). Cell viability PAL-treated determined by MTT assay, and apoptotic regulators were examined qRT-PCR western blot analysis, absence or prese...
