In the spring of 2012, in reforested areas of Peloritani Mountains (Sicily, Italy) a severe dieback of Acacia melanoxylon R.Brown was observed.The main symptoms on both young and adults plants consisted of elongated cankers on the trunks and epicormic shoots, wilt of the canopy and dieback interested mostly aged trees.The woody tissues showed brown
The effect of exercise on cytokines: implications for musculoskeletal health: a narrative review
Abstract The physiological effects of physical exercise are ubiquitously reported as beneficial to the CITICOLINE cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems.Exercise is widely promoted by medical professionals to aid both physical and emotional wellbeing; however, mechanisms through which this is achieved are less well understood.Despite numerous b
Drosophila ADCK1 is critical for maintaining mitochondrial structures and functions in the muscle.
The function of AarF domain-containing kinase 1 (ADCK1) has not been thoroughly revealed.Here we identified that ADCK1 utilizes YME1-like 1 ATPase (YME1L1) to control optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) and inner membrane mitochondrial protein (IMMT) in regulating mitochondrial dynamics and cristae structure.We firstly observed that a serious developmental impa
Real-time observation of the optical Sagnac effect in ultrafast bidirectional fibre lasers
The optical Sagnac effect sets fundamentals of the operating principle for ring laser and fiber optic gyroscopes, which are preferred instruments for inertial guidance systems, seismology, and geodesy.Operating at both high bias stability and angular velocity resolutions demands special precautions like dithering or multimode operation to eliminate
