Respiratory viral infections trigger asthma exacerbations, yet the acute effects of Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) signaling on airway physiology are poorly understood. This [...]

Urban watersheds experience anthropogenic impacts that degrade water quality. This study used fluorescence spectroscopy to characterize dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and [...]

Nitrate is the primary nitrogen source for crops but poses environmental risks through leaching and nitrous oxide emissions, particularly in manured agricultural systems. [...]

Pregnancy is associated with reduced baroreflex gain, but its underlying mechanism remains uncertain. This study investigated the roles of nitric oxide, angiotensin II, a [...]

Lignin peroxidase (Lip) and manganese peroxidase (MnP) are the major components of the lignin degradation system in the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Ex [...]

This study investigates mechanisms by which metalloproteins reduce nitric oxide (NO) to nitrous oxide (N₂O), a key step in bacterial denitrification and nitrosative stres [...]

This research investigates the molecular mechanisms by which metalloproteins detect and detoxify nitric oxide (NO). We characterized two bacterial NO‑sensor proteins that [...]

Acute painful episodes experienced in hospital settings leads to fear, avoidance of future medical care, and creates gaps in those who suffer from chronic illnesses yet p [...]

For many women labor causes severe pain (comparable to a complex regional pain syndrome or the amputation of a finger), yet each woman’s experience of labor pain is high [...]
