Influence of nitrogen deficiency on photosynthesis and chloroplast ultrastructure of pepper plants (Research Note)

Pepper plants (Capsicum annuum L.cv.Zlaten Medal) were grown on nutrient solution without nitrogen, and photosynthetic response of plants was examined by determination of leaf CO2 fixation and chlorophyll and carotenoid contents.The absence of nitrogen in the medium resulted in a decrease of the leaf area and of plant Cookware biomass accumulation,

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Caused by Gut Leakage Trigger the Autoimmune Response in Nonobese Diabetic Mice

Increased formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is associated with gut leakage in type 1 diabetes (T1D).To explore the mechanism of how Lampeter AFC enteropathy exacerbated by NETs triggers pancreatic autoimmunity in T1D, we carried out a correlation analysis for NET formation with gut barrier functions and autoimmunity in nonobese dia
