Wedelolactone Acts as Proteasome Inhibitor in Breast Cancer Cells
(MDPI, Basel, 2017)
Wedelolactone is a multi-target natural plant coumestan exhibiting cytotoxicity towards cancer cells. Although several molecular targets of wedelolactone have been recognized, the molecular mechanism of its cytotoxicity ...
Mechanism of Antiradical Activity of Newly Synthesized 4,7-Dihydroxycoumarin Derivatives-Experimental and Kinetic DFT Study
(MDPI, Basel, 2021)
Coumarin derivatives have proven beneficial biological activities, but the mechanism of their radical scavenging potency is not fully understood. In this study, the antiradical capacity of two newly synthesized ...
Synthesis, Crystallographic, Quantum Chemical, Antitumor, and Molecular Docking/Dynamic Studies of 4-Hydroxycoumarin-Neurotransmitter Derivatives
(MDPI, Basel, 2022)
In this contribution, four new compounds synthesized from 4-hydroxycoumarin and tyramine/octopamine/norepinephrine/3-methoxytyramine are characterized spectroscopically (IR and NMR), chromatographically (UHPLC-DAD), and ...
Red-Light Transmittance Changes in Variegated Pelargonium zonale—Diurnal Variation in Chloroplast Movement and Photosystem II Efficiency
(MDPI, 2023)
Chloroplast movement rapidly ameliorates the effects of suboptimal light intensity by accumulating along the periclinal cell walls, as well as the effects of excess light by shifting to the anticlinal cell walls. These ...
Effects of Fructose and Stress on Rat Renal Copper Metabolism and Antioxidant Enzymes Function
(MDPI, 2022)
The effects of a fructose-rich diet and chronic stress on copper metabolism in the kidneys are
still understudied. We investigated whether fructose and/or chronic unpredictable stress modulate
copper metabolism in a way ...
In Silico Characterisation of the Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) Protein Families and Their Role in Desiccation Tolerance in Ramonda serbica Panc.
(MDPI, 2022)
Ramonda serbica Panc. is an ancient resurrection plant able to survive a long desiccation period and recover metabolic functions upon watering. The accumulation of protective late embryogenesis abundant proteins (LEAPs) ...
Differential Polarization Imaging of Plant Cells. Mapping the Anisotropy of Cell Walls and Chloroplasts
(MDPI, Basel, 2021)
Modern light microscopy imaging techniques have substantially advanced our knowledge about the ultrastructure of plant cells and their organelles. Laser-scanning microscopy and digital light microscopy imaging techniques, ...
Differential Antioxidant Response to Supplemental UV-B Irradiation and Sunlight in Three Basil Varieties
(MDPI AG, POSTFACH, BASEL, SWITZERLAND, CH-4005, 2023)
Three basil plant varieties (Ocimum basilicum var. Genovese, Ocimum x citriodorum, and Ocimum
basilicum var. purpurascens) were grown under moderate light (about 300 umol photons m-2 s-1)
in a glasshouse or growth chamber ...
Carbon and Nitrogen Allocation between the Sink and Source Leaf Tissue in Response to the Excess Excitation Energy Conditions
(MDPI AG, POSTFACH, BASEL, SWITZERLAND, CH-4005, 2023)
Plants are inevitably exposed to extreme climatic conditions that lead to a disturbed balance
between the amount of absorbed energy and their ability to process it. Variegated leaves with
photosynthetically active green ...
