Unlocking the gate to GABARAPL2Biologia Futura - Tập 73 - Trang 157-169 - 2022
Jennifer C. Y. Chan, Sharon M. Gorski
GABARAPL2 was initially characterized for its involvement in protein transport
and membrane fusion events, but has since gained notoriety for its role in
autophagy. GABARAPL2 is frequently studied alongside its GABARAP subfamily
members, GABARAP and GABARAPL1. Although functional redundancy exists among the
subfamily members, a complex network of molecular interactions, physiological
processes and... hiện toàn bộ
Treadmill exercise training improves the high-fat diet-induced behavioral changes in the male ratsBiologia Futura - Tập 73 - Trang 483-493 - 2022
Ozgur Bulmus, Zubeyde Ercan, Emine Kacar, Ihsan Serhatlioglu, Abdullah Yasar, Haluk Kelestimur
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of treadmill exercise
training on obesity-induced behavioral changes in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced
male rats. In this study, 40 male Sprague–Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups
after they were weaned: Control (C), Exercise (E), Obese (O) and
Obese + Exercise (O + E). For the obesity model % 60 high-fat diet were applied.
After obesity wa... hiện toàn bộ
Biologia futura: the role of polyamine in plant scienceBiologia Futura - Tập 71 - Trang 183-194 - 2020
Fereshteh Kamiab, Iraj Tavassolian, Mehdi Hosseinifarahi
Polyamines (PAs) are positively charged amines such as putrescine, spermidine
and spermine that ubiquitously exist in all organisms. They have been considered
as a new type of plant biostimulants, with pivotal roles in many physiological
processes. Polyamine levels are controlled by intricate regulatory feedback
mechanisms. PAs are directly or indirectly regulated through interaction with
signalin... hiện toàn bộ
Physiological pathways to rapid prosocial evolutionBiologia Futura - Tập 70 - Trang 93-102 - 2019
Daniela Pörtl, Christoph Jung
Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) descend from wolves (Canis lupus) sharing the same
ecological niche of cooperative hunters, as humans. Initially, humans and wolves
were competitors starting interspecific communication in order to avoid risk of
injury. The evolutionary continuity of mammalian brains enabled interspecific
prosocial contacts between both of them, which reduced stress, and enabled

István Sándor was a monk and deeply impressed by the spirituality of the
Salesian Society. On 24 July 1946 he made his perpetual votes as a Salesian
brother. In 1950 the Communist Party banned the operation of religious orders
including the Salesian Order. In 1951 the Internal Security Corps was informed
about “illegal” activity of István Sándor. He was arrested on 28 July 1952 and
sentenced to de... hiện toàn bộ
Herbicides widely used in the world: an investigation of toxic effects on Caenorhabditis elegansBiologia Futura - Tập 74 - Trang 171-182 - 2023
Alper Zöngür, Musa Sari
Dicamba, paraquat, picloram, clopyralid and linuron are herbicides widely used
in agriculture. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the toxicity effects
of the herbicides used on survival, fertility and length of Caenorhabditis
elegans. Kaplan–Meier Survival Analysis method was used to identify the toxicity
effect of herbicides on survival, and ANOVA and Post Hoc tests were used to
determin... hiện toàn bộ
Cobalt-induced retrotransposon polymorphism and humic acid protection on maize genomeBiologia Futura - Tập 71 - Trang 123-130 - 2020
Esma Yigider, Mahmut Sinan Taspinar, Murat Aydin, Guleray Agar
Retrotransposon activity and genomic template stability (GTS) are one of the
most significant rearranging mechanisms in environmental stress. Therefore, in
this study, it is aimed to elucidate effecting of Cobalt (Co) on the instability
of genomes and Long Terminal Repeat retrotransposon polymorphism in Zea mays and
whether humic acid (HA) has any role on these parameters. For this purpose,

Assessment of allelopathic activity of Tradescantia spathacea Sw. for weed controlBiologia Futura - Tập 72 - Trang 489-495 - 2021
Ei Han Kyaw, Hisashi Kato-Noguchi
Tradescantia spathacea Sw. (Commelinaceae) is widely cultivated as an ornamental
and medicinal plant in Southeast Asia, and its pharmacological properties are
well known. On the other hand, this plant species is classified as an invasive
weed in some countries. As a noxious weed, T. spathacea has been reported to
disrupt the growth of native plants. However, no study has reported on its
allelopath... hiện toàn bộ
Towards policies that capture the expected value of biomolecular diversity for drug discovery, human health, and well-beingBiologia Futura - Tập 72 - Trang 119-125 - 2020

This paper aims to help policy makers with a characterization of the intrinsic
value of biodiversity and its role as a critical foundation for sustainable
development, human health, and well-being. Our objective is to highlight the
urgent need to overcome economic, disciplinary, national, cultural, and regional
barriers, in order to work out innovative measures to create a sustainable
future and p... hiện toàn bộ
