Characterization of the non-coding part of the transcriptome is a supplement to the annotation of the genome of living organisms. According to ISSR-fingerprinting data, information is obtained about ancient gene pools, modern gene pools, genetic variability and conservation of breeds and species of farm animals. The aim of the study is to study the molecular genetic component and phylogenetic relationships in the aboriginal Hutsul horse breed and fossil remains of ancient horses using ISSR-PCR markers. The polymorp [...]

The present work aimed to study the effects of 10-(6'-plastoquinonyl) decyltriphenylphosphonium (SkQ1) on rice (Oryza sativa) plants germinating under flooding conditions. The influence of different concentrations of SkQ1 (mitochondria-targeted antioxidant) on resistance to complete flooding was assessed on rice seedlings of the Kuboyar variety. The total level of reactive oxygen species (ROS), H2O2-induced chemiluminescence, and gene expression of antioxidant enzymes (OsSODA (superoxide dismutase A), OsSODB (s [...]

Evidence shows the use of interventions to prevent falls are costly to healthcare facilities. Using a sample of older adult patients who fell at least once during the intervention year of a three-year cohort study in one long term care nursing facility, at a continuing care community providing skilled nursing and assisted living, we provide detailed evidence of the number and costs of durable medical equipment and number and type of non- durable medical nursing care interventions utilized to prevent subsequent fall [...]

Microglial activation and the associated oxidative or inflammatory responses play a crucial role in the development of neurodegenerative diseases. In this study, we evaluated the antioxidant, cytotoxic, and anti-inflammatory properties of Teucrium polium (TP) ethanolic extract in murine BV-2 microglial cells, including wild-type (Wt) and peroxisomal β-oxidation-deficient Acox1-/- cell lines. The TP extract exhibited high antioxidant activity as assessed via the DPPH test, with an IC50 value of 73.89 μ [...]

Biallelic pathogenic variants in C1QBP are an infrequent, yet increasingly recognised, cause of progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO). Although most published cases include cardiomyopathy, isolated late‑onset PEO without cardiac disease remains exceptional. To characterise, for the first time, a Moldavian‑Ukrainian pedigree in which homozygous c.612C>G (p.Phe204Leu) in C1QBP causes autosomal‑recessive PEO in the absence of cardiomyopathy, thereby expanding the phenotypic spectrum of C1QBP‑related disease. W [...]

Wheat constitutes the backbone of global food supplies, and its production is directly linked to the food and nutritional security of the mounting population. Wheat is vulnerable to abiotic stresses like heat, salinity, and drought. These abiotic stresses tend to reduce the food security of the increasing population by reducing wheat production and nutritional quality. Among abiotic stresses, salinity stress (SS) has emerged as the most prevailing stress in modern high-input wheat farming systems, as it severely ha [...]

Performance art is both a visual arts practice and kinaesthetic approach to place-based health. The perspective of this commentary is to promote the attributes of performance art to showcase its capacity to extend people into new configurations of cultural engagement with beneficial effects. Performance art is an opportunity to engage both mind and body in actions that transform predictability and encourage wellness within the context of people’s life studios (their everyday lives). Wellness is defined here in rela [...]
