Abscisic Acid: A Novel Nutraceutical for Glycemic Control
Abscisic acid is naturally present in fruits and vegetables, and it plays an important role in managing glucose homeostasis in humans. According to the latest U.S. dietary survey, about 92% of the population might have a deficient intake of ABA due to their deficient intake of fruits and vegetables. This review summarizes the in vitro, preclinical, mechanistic, and human translational findings ...
متن کاملThe Arabidopsis thaliana ABSCISIC ACID-INSENSITIVE8 encodes a novel protein mediating abscisic acid and sugar responses essential for growth.
Abscisic acid (ABA) regulates many aspects of plant growth and development, yet many ABA response mutants present only subtle phenotypic defects, especially in the absence of stress. By contrast, the ABA-insensitive8 (abi8) mutant, isolated on the basis of ABA-resistant germination, also displays severely stunted growth, defective stomatal regulation, altered ABA-responsive gene expression, del...
متن کاملDesign and Functional Characterization of a Novel Abscisic Acid Analog
The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays a crucial role in mediating plant growth and development by recruiting genetically redundant ABA receptors. To overcome its oxidation inactivation, we developed a novel ABA analog named 2',3'-benzo-iso-ABA (iso-PhABA) and studied its function and structural characterization with A. thaliana ABA receptors. The (+)-iso-PhABA form showed much higher ABA-l...
متن کاملA Quick Release Mechanism for Abscisic Acid
The hormone abscisic acid regulates development and survival of plants in response to environmental stresses. now demonstrate that in response to stress, abscisic acid can be made available via polymerization of a beta-glucosidase enzyme. This enzyme is reported to hydrolyze glucose-conjugated abscisic acid, thus increasing active abscisic acid concentrations.
متن کاملControl of abscisic acid catabolism and abscisic acid homeostasis is important for reproductive stage stress tolerance in cereals.
Drought stress at the reproductive stage causes pollen sterility and grain loss in wheat (Triticum aestivum). Drought stress induces abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis genes in anthers and ABA accumulation in spikes of drought-sensitive wheat varieties. In contrast, drought-tolerant wheat accumulates lower ABA levels, which correlates with lower ABA biosynthesis and higher ABA catabolic gene expr...
