Exposure to sensitizer has been suggested to be hazardous to human health, evaluation the sensitization of sensitizer is particularly important and urgently needed.Dendritic cells (DCs) exert an irreplaceable function in immunity, and the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire is key to ensuring immune response to foreign antigens.We hypothesized that a
Can social-ecological systems inhibit invasive species control? A study of acacia mearnsii control in the Golden Gate Highlands National park of South Africa
Considered to be an important source of water, energy and biological diversity, mountains are a critical component of livelihoods because of the ecosystem goods and services they provide to montane communities.In South Africa, mountain ecosystems are under threat from invasion by alien species, posing considerable pressure on wildlife, native plant
Shifts in magnetic mineral assemblages support ocean deoxygenation before the end-Permian mass extinction
Abstract Expansion of oceanic anoxia is a prevailing hypothesis for driving the marine end-Permian hockey puck dab rig mass extinction and is mainly based on isotopic geochemical proxies.However, long-term oceanic redox conditions before the end-Permian mass extinction remain unresolved.Here we report a secular redox trend based on rock magnetic ex
Comparative transcriptional profiling of Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis in response to salicylic acid- and methyl jasmonate-mediated heat resistance.
Culturing the economically important macroalga Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis (Rhodophyta) is limited due to the high temperatures in short shifter rsx the summertime on the southern Chinese coast.Previous studies have demonstrated that two phytohormones, salicylic acid (SA) and methyl jasmonate (MJ), can alleviate the adverse effects of high-tempera
