Pre-harvest nitrogen and azoxystrobin application enhances raw product quality and post-harvest shelf-life of baby spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.).

Conversa G1, Bonasia A, Lazzizera C, Elia A.
Journal of the science of food and agriculture.J Sci Food Agric.2014 Dec;94(15):3263-72. doi: 10.1002/jsfa.6679. Epub 2014 Apr 30.
BACKGROUND: Baby spinach was cultivated under spring or winter conditions to investigate the effect of azoxystrobin and, only in the winter cycle, of nitrogen fertilisation (0, 80 and 120 kg ha(-1) of N) on yield and product morphological traits at harvest and on the physical, visual, bio-physio

Single blastomere removal from murine embryos is associated with activation of matrix metalloproteinases and Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription pathways of placental inflammation.

Single blastomere removal from cleavage-stage embryos, a common procedure used in conjunction with preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), may affect reproductive outcomes. We hypothesized that negative pregnancy outcomes associated with PGD may be due to impairment of placental signaling pathways.

Mammalian fertilization is completed by direct interaction between sperm and egg. This process is primarily mediated by both adhesion and membrane-fusion proteins found on the gamete surface. ADAM1, 2, and 3 are members of the ADAMs protein family, and have been involved in sperm-egg binding. In thi

Blood Calcium Levels in Immature Rats : Influence of Extracellular Calcium Concentration on Myocardial Calcium Handling

BASSANI Rosana A.,GILIOLI Rovilson,OLIVEIRA Elizangela S.,HOEHR Nelci F.
Experimental animals 61(4), 399-405, 2012-07-01
… Calcium ions play an important role in several cell functions, from fertilization to cell death. … The latter may markedly affect Ca2+ fluxes across the cell membrane and thus the cellular Ca2+ load. …

Functional Analysis of Lysosomes During Mouse Preimplantation Embryo Development

TSUKAMOTO Satoshi,HARA Taichi,YAMAMOTO Atsushi,OHTA Yuki,WADA Ayako,ISHIDA Yuka,KITO Seiji,NISHIKAWA Tetsu,MINAMI Naojiro,SATO Ken,KOKUBO Toshiaki
Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2012
… Here, we found that the number of lysosomes increased after fertilization. … One-cell embryos injected with siRNAs targeted to both lysosome-associated membrane protein 1 and 2 (LAMP1 and LAMP2) were developmentally arrested at the two-cell stage. …

Mouse sperm undergo GPI-anchored protein release associated with lipid raft reorganization and acrosome reaction to acquire fertility.

Watanabe Hitomi,Kondoh Gen
Journal of cell science 124(15), 2573-2581, 2011-08-01
… Mammalian sperm undergo several maturation steps after leaving the testis to become competent for fertilization. … To investigate sperm membrane remodeling upon sperm maturation, we developed transgenic mouse lines carrying glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP-GPI) and traced the fate of this fluorescent protein during the fertility-acquiring process in sperm in vitro and in vivo. …
