Oligogalacturonic acid (OGA) affects plant growth and development in an antagonistic manner to that of the auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), the mechanism by which remains to be determined. This study ...

The formation of a pH gradient, which is characterized by intracellular alkalinization and extracellular acidification, plays a key role in the growth and metastasis of tumor cells. However, the ...

Exatecan (DX-8951f), a new topoisomerase I - inhibitor, is inactive in heavily pretreated patients (pts.) with advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS): A phase II - study of the EORTC Soft Tissue and Bone ...

Syracuse University and Texas A&M researchers use computer modeling to find out the sources of salinization and alkalinization in U.S. watersheds. From protecting biodiversity to ensuring the safety ...

A nationwide study of 226 river-monitoring sites shows how humans are increasing salt levels in rivers. But alkalinization of rivers—rivers becoming less acidic—is also increasing, and is considered ...
