Environmental challenges such as low light intensity induce differential growth-driven upward leaf movement (hyponastic growth) in Arabidopsis thaliana. However, little is known about the physiological regulation of this response. Here, we studied how low light intensity is perceived and translated

The possible protective effects in vitro of the hydroxyl radical scavenger dimethyl urea (6 mg/ml) and the poly(ADP-ribose)synthetase inhibitors theophylline (5 mM) and nicotinamide (0.75 mg/ml) against streptozotocin (SZ) induced deterioration of islet metabolism were investigated using isolated mouse pancreatic

Methylisocyanate (MIC) induced mutagenic responses in the absence of exogenous activation in the mouse lymphoma cell forward mutation assay at concentrations as low as 8-24 microM. MIC produced predominantly small mutant colonies, suggesting the possibility of clastogenic activity. The intermediate

In studies to evaluate possible inhibitors of the B-cell toxin, streptozotocin, the superoxide scavenger, superoxide dismutase, did not prevent or reduce the toxic effects of streptozotocin as determined by loss of insulin secretion from rat pancreatic B cells in monolayer

The protective effect on streptozotocin-induced diabetes of dimethyl urea, a hydroxyl radical scavenger, has been evaluated in vivo and in vitro. Pretreatment with dimethyl urea before a single diabetogenic dose of streptozotocin partially protected NMRI mice from hyperglycaemia, whereas the
