TERPENES AND PHENOLICS IN ALCOHOLIC EXTRACTS OF PINE NEEDLES EXHIBIT BIOCONTROL OF WEEDS (MELILOTUS ALBUS AND ASPHODELUS TENUIFOLIUS) AND INSECT-PEST (PLUTELLA XYLOSTELLA)

Terpenes and phenolics in alcoholic extracts of pine needles exhibit biocontrol of weeds (Melilotus albus and Asphodelus tenuifolius) and insect-pest (Plutella xylostella)

Massive use of synthetic chemicals exerts deleterious effects on human and environmental health, which calls for the development of novel alternatives to manage agricultural pests.Botanical pesticides have drawn great interest due to their non-toxic and eco-friendly nature.Therefore, under this study, leaf-needles of chir pine (Pinus roxburghii) we

Identification of PPARG as key gene to link coronary atherosclerosis disease and rheumatoid arthritis via microarray data analysis.

BackgroundInflammation is the common pathogenesis of coronary atherosclerosis disease (CAD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Although it is established that RA increases the risk of CAD, the underlining mechanism remained indefinite.This study seeks to explore the molecular mechanisms of RA linked CAD and identify potential target gene for early predi

A novel stemness-related lncRNA signature predicts prognosis, immune infiltration and drug sensitivity of clear cell renal cell carcinoma

Abstract Background Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a prevalent urogenital malignancy characterized by heterogeneous patterns.Stemness is a pivotal factor in tumor progression, recurrence, and metastasis.Nevertheless, the impact of stemness-related long non-coding RNAs (SRlncRNAs) on the prognosis of ccRCC remains elusive.In this study,
