P4-082: NOTCH3 MUTATIONS, AND THEIR POSSIBLE INVOLVEMENT IN ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE

Ferroelectrics and their possible involvement in biology

We present the main properties of ferroelectricity, with emphasis given to a specific family of hydrated ferroelectric crystals, which can serve as model systems for corresponding configurations in biology like the microtubules. An experimental method is described, which allows to establish the ferroelectric property of microtubules in suspension.

Cognitive Impairments in Siblings of Alzheimers Disease Patients: Possible Preclinical Signs of the Disease

Computational approach towards identification of pathogenic missense mutations in AMELX gene and their possible association with amelogenesis imperfecta

Amelogenin gene (AMEL-X) encodes an enamel protein called amelogenin, which plays a vital role in tooth development. Any mutations in this gene or the associated pathway lead to developmental abnormalities of the tooth. The present study aims to analyze functional missense mutations in AMEL-X genes and derive an association with amelogenesis imperfecta. The information on miss...

Plastoquinone: possible involvement in plant disease resistance.

The plant Solanum nigrum treated with the pathogen Phytophthora infestans-derived elicitor responded by elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, lipid peroxidation and lipoxygenase (EC 1.13.11.12) activity in comparison with control plants indicating that oxidative stress took place. We demonstrate that these events are accompanied by a significant increase in plastoquinone (PQ) level...
