Study shows how self-swimming microorganisms get by in harsher conditions Kumar Jeetendra | March 18, 2021 Many bacteria swim towards nutrients by rotating the helix-shaped flagella attached to their bodies. As they proceed, the cells may either’run’ in a straight line, or’fall’ by varying the rotational directions of the flagella, inducing their avenues to intentionally alter course. Through a process named’chemotaxis,’ bacteria can decrease their rate of tumbling at higher levels …
New gene expression organization can help understand component behind ceaseless stem cell activity in plant Kumar Jeetendra | June 11, 2021 An inter-university research group has succeeded in constructing the gene expression network behind the vascular development process in plants. They achieved this by doing bioinformatics analysis using the’VISUAL’ tissue culture stage, which generates vascular stem cells from cells. Within this network, they also found a new BES/BZR transcription factor, BEH3, which modulates vascular stem cells. …
Dietary components hold guarantee for working on the health and wellbeing of grown-ups Kumar Jeetendra | January 26, 2022 Research suggests that nutritional supplements that target specific mechanisms that are associated with age-associated cellular decay (AACD), have the potential to improve health and well-being for adults. “Cellular Nutrition and Its Influence on Age-Associated Cellular Decline,” the latest issue of The Gerontological Society of America’s What’s Hot newsletter with accompanying infographic, provides an overview of …
