Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been demonstrated in studies to cause inflammation and oxidative stress in various tissues, resulting in a positive feedback loop that increases AGEs. ...
Type 2 Most typically linked to old age, a family history of the disease or being overweight, type 2 diabetes occurs due to fatty accumulation in the liver (limiting its responsiveness to insulin which means that more glucose is then produced) and the pancreas (causing metabolic stress which stops ß cells from functioning). Individuals with type 2 ...
The presence of biologically active substances (BAS) in biosolids may enhance plant stress tolerance and growth, but the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. This greenhouse study investigated the effects of untreated biosolids, containing 2.1 µg indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) g–1, and tryptophan-treated biosolids, containing 15.4 µg IAA g–1, on tall fescue [Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.) ...
