a hydroponic experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of of magnesium (mg) deficiency on plant cell metabolism in pgs durum wheat cultivar. the experiment was conducted in 4 replications as a completely randomized design in 2010. result showed that magnesium deficiency increased reactive oxygen species (ros) production such as hydrogen peroxide (h2o2). furthermore, mg deficiency decli...

Isolated rat hepatocytes in culture were incubated with different concentrations of iron-sorbitol (50, 100, 150, and 200 µM) to assess the changes in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation leading to apoptotic hepatocyte cell death. The viability of hepatocytes was declined depending on the iron concentration. One hour incubation of the cells with 100 µM iron resulted in decreased...

Light is an effective factor in cell suspension culture and must be controlled for optimizing cell growth. Growth of anthocyanin producing suspension cells of a red-fleshed genotype of apple (RFA) was assessed in response to blue diode laser (BDL) and red He Ne (RHNL) laser. The suspension cells in L-shaped test tubes were exposed to short-term laser radiation for 20 min in a rotary shaker. The...

objective(s): abnormal lung cell death including autophagy and apoptosis is the central feature in acute lung injury (ali). to identify the cellular mechanisms and the chronology by which different types of lung cell death are activated during lipopolysaccharide (lps)-induced ali, we decided to evaluate autophagy (by lc3-ii and autophagosome) and apoptosis (by caspase-3) at different time point...

apoptosis is a complex network of biochemical and molecular pathway with fine regulatory mechanisms that control the death event during several pathological situations in multi cellular organisms. it is the part of normal development that occurs in a variety of diseases and is known as aberrant apoptosis. pancreatic β cell apoptosis is also a pathological feature which is common in both type 1 ...
