CAENORHABDITIS ELEGANS ORGANIC CATION TRANSPORTER-2 IS A NOVEL DRUG UPTAKE TRANSPORTER THAT MEDIATES INDUCED MUTAGENESIS BY ENVIRONMENTAL GENOTOXIC COMPOUNDS

Caenorhabditis elegans organic cation transporter-2 is a novel drug uptake transporter that mediates induced mutagenesis by environmental genotoxic compounds

Uptake transporters are being studied for roles in the entry of therapeutic drugs into cells and thus can be exploited to improve the treatment of various diseases.The live whole model organism, Caenorhabditis elegans, offers an array of advantages to investigate the roles of these transporters.This organism possesses two organic cation transporter

Extended sufficient conditions for exact relaxation of the complementarity constraints in storage-concerned economic dispatch

Storage is widely considered in economic bempresas.com dispatch (ED) problems.To prevent simultaneous charging and discharging of a storage device, a storage-concerned ED problem should involve complementarity constraints for every storage device to make the problem strongly non-convex.In this case, the conventional Karush-Kuhn-Tucker optimality co

Multifunctionality of Jasmonic Acid Accumulation during Aphid Infestation in Altering the Plant Physiological Traits That Suppress the Plant Defenses in Wheat Cultivar XN979

Crop plants have coevolved phytohormone-mediated defenses to combat and/or repel their colonizers.The present study determined the effects of jasmonic acid (JA) accumulation during aphid infestation on the preference and performance of Sitobion miscanthi Takahashi (Hemiptera: Aphididae), and its potential role in fine-tuning hormone-dependent respo
