Uptake and translocation of foliar applied phosphite and its effect on growth and development in cool season turfgrass (2022)
Journal Article

Phosphate (PO43-, Pi) is the sole phosphorus (P) containing compound utilized for plant growth, leading to the widespread use of Pi containing fertilizers. An alternative form of P, phosphite (PO33-, Phi) has increasingly been used in many crop syste...

Targeting the ERG oncogene with splice-switching oligonucleotides as a novel therapeutic strategy in prostate cancer (2020)
Journal Article

Background: The ERG oncogene, a member of the ETS family of transcription factor encoding genes, is a genetic driver of prostate cancer. It is activated through a fusion with the androgen-responsive TMPRSS2 promoter in 50% of cases. There is therefor...

Hypoxia leads to significant changes in alternative splicing and elevated expression of CLK splice factor kinases in PC3 prostate cancer cells (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 The Author(s). Background: Mounting evidence suggests that one of the ways that cells adapt to hypoxia is through alternative splicing. The aim of this study was firstly to examine the effect of hypoxia on the alternative splicing of cancer as...

The oncogenic transcription factor ERG represses the transcription of the tumour suppressor gene PTEN in prostate cancer cells (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017, Spandidos Publications. All rights reserved. The oncogene ETS-related gene (ERG) encodes a transcription factor with roles in the regulation of haematopoiesis, angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, inflammation, migration and invasion. The ERG oncoge... Read More about The oncogenic transcription factor ERG represses the transcription of the tumour suppressor gene PTEN in prostate cancer cells.

Residual ground-water levels of the neonicotinoid thiacloprid perturb chemosensing of Caenorhabditis elegans (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017, The Author(s). This study investigated the neurological effects of residual ground-water levels of thiaclopridon the non-target organism Caenorhabditis elegans. Nematodes treated with thiacloprid showed a dose-dependent and significantly incr...

The evolutionarily conserved multifunctional glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins play key roles in development and stress adaptation (2015)
Journal Article

© 2014 Scandinavian Plant Physiology Society. The class IV glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins are a distinct subgroup within the heterogenous superfamily of glycine-rich proteins (GRPs). They are distinguished by the presence of an RNA-binding domain...

A proteomic analysis of oligo(dT)-bound mRNP containing oxidative stress-induced Arabidopsis thaliana RNA-binding proteins ATGRP7 and ATGRP8 (2010)
Journal Article

Plants are highly adapted to respond to a range of environmental stresses commonly by altering their gene expression and metabolism as a result of cell signalling which may be mediated by reactive oxygen species. The glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins... Read More about A proteomic analysis of oligo(dT)-bound mRNP containing oxidative stress-induced Arabidopsis thaliana RNA-binding proteins ATGRP7 and ATGRP8.

Lipid peroxidation levels in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) seed parts as a consequence on imbibition stress (2009)
Journal Article

High rainfall and rapid water uptake by dry seed after sowing in the field can result in so-called seed imbibitional damage. Here, lipid peroxidation levels were evaluated in seed testa, embryos and cotyledons of three soybean cultivars (Podravka 95,... Read More about Lipid peroxidation levels in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) seed parts as a consequence on imbibition stress.

Cold- and light-induced changes in the transcriptome of wheat leading to phase transition from vegetative to reproductive growth (2009)
Journal Article

Abstract. Background. For plants to flower at the appropriate time, they must be able to perceive and respond to various internal and external cues. Wheat is generally a long-day plant that will go through phase transition from vegetative to floral g...

SlTPR1, a tomato tetratricopeptide repeat protein, interacts with the ethylene receptors NR and LeETR1, modulating ethylene and auxin responses and development (2008)
Journal Article

The gaseous hormone ethylene is perceived by a family of ethylene receptors which interact with the Raf-like kinase CTR1. SlTPR1 encodes a novel TPR (tetratricopeptide repeat) protein from tomato that interacts with the ethylene receptors NR and LeET...

A pilot investigation of the hypoalgesic effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation upon low back pain in people with multiple sclerosis (2003)
Journal Article

Objective: To investigate the hypoalgesic effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) upon low back pain (LBP) in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Design: A randomized double-blind placebo controlled clinical pilot study. Subjec...
