Asthmatic bronchial inflammation is associated with increased nitric oxide concentrations in exhaled air (eNO). Recent data suggest that this effect arises from atopy. Our aim in this study was to find out whether atopy and sensitization to particular allergens influences eNO levels. A total of 213

Transgenic tobacco plants overexpressing the monoterpene alcohol geraniol synthase exhibit hypersensitivity to thermal stress, possibly due to suppressed sugar metabolism and transcriptional regulation of genes involved in thermal stress tolerance. Monoterpene alcohols function in plant
A bioassay for fungal toxins based on the intraperitoneal injection of test materials into mice was used to screen 976 cultures isolated from tobacco and grown in a high-protein baby cereal and also to determine whether samples of tobacco damaged by fungi are more toxic than samples of apparently
Ten fungi, Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, A. ochraceus, A. ruber, A. repens, A. amstelodami, Alternaria tenuis, Penicillium brevi-compactum, Cladosporium herbarum, and Chaetomium dolicotrichum, were isolated from moldy flue-cured tobacco and grown in various mixtures of N(2)-O(2) or CO(2)-O(2). A 1
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in NADPH-oxidases which are involved in the active generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), owing to their role in oxidative burst, signalling and oxidative damage derived from biotic and abiotic stresses. NADPH oxidase activity is enhanced by
Six extracts were prepared from Alternaria tenuis isolated ATCC 6663, ATCC 16086 and DAOM (Agriculture Canada) 183905 grown separately on two synthetic media, revised tobacco and Czapek's, and their biochemical and immunological properties were examined. High-performance liquid chromatography
The underlying mechanisms of acetylcholine-induced intestinal relaxation in the lizard Liolaemus tenuis tenuis are still unknown. By using a classical model of intestinal recording of isometric contraction and relaxation in conjunction with specific pharmacological tools, this article studies the
The genusAlternaria is responsible for different plant diseases such as tobacco brown spot, tomato blight, and citrus seedling chlorosis but can also be present during storage of grain. The objective of the present paper is to summarize the knowledge concerning regulation of secondary metabolism
