Health · Intestine The number of intestinal microorganisms is more than 10 times that of human body's own cells, which plays an extremely important role in metabolism, growth, immunity and disease emergence. Many research results show that intestinal microorganisms are directly related to the pathogenesis of various diseases, such as cancer, ...
Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant digestive system tumor, and the five-year survival rate of patients after diagnosis is only about 10%. Changes in metabolism are one of the important features of tumor cells. Tumor cells undergo metabolic reprogramming to generate the substances, energy, and redox forces required for their rapid proliferation. ...
All cell culture medium starts with a ‘basal medium’ that is composed of the essential ingredients that most types of cells will need to support their growth and metabolism, while providing a liquid environment that mimics the chemistry found in the blood and the fluids that surround cells inside the body’s tissues. ...
Hormones regulate the body's development, growth, reproduction, metabolism, immunity and behavior. Endocrine disruptors interfere with natural hormone systems, and the health effects can be felt long after the exposure has stopped. ...
In the present study, embryos of the common toad Rhinella arenarum were employed to assess developmental alterations and to study polyamine metabolism, which is essential to normal growth, as a possible target underlying the effects of the OP chlorpyrifos. ...
A humic substance was separated into carboxyl and phenolic fractions by affinity chromatography using a weak-base amine resin. The humic extract and its fractions were analyzed for physical and chemical characteristics. Their biological effects were compared, at concentrations of 1 and 5 mg C L–1, on the growth of callus of Pinus nigra J.F. Arnold. A higher molecular weight and a greater degree ...
The effect of crude oil contaminated soil at various sublethal concentrations (0.25%, 0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0%) on the growth and metabolism of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) seedlings was studied. ...
