Neurofilaments (NFs) are unique among tissue-specific classes of intermediate filaments (IFs)
in being heteropolymers composed of four subunits (NF-L [neurofilament light]; NF-M […

Neurofilaments (NFs) are intermediate filaments with a diameter of 10 nm, similar to that of
neurons. Although they are present in perikarya and dendrites, neurofilaments are particularly …

Ozone (O3) is a toxic air pollutant that is, somewhat paradoxically, both beneficial and
harmful to life on earth. While stratospheric O3 shields biologically harm ful UY radiation from …

… The CSTRs used in the present study have been described elsewhere (Rao and Ormrod,
1995a… O, concentrations were controlled with a programmable gasdispensing system (Rao and …

We investigated how salicylic acid (SA) enhances H2O2 and the relative significance of SA-enhanced
H2O2 in Arabidopsis thaliana. SA treatments enhanced H2O2 production, lipid …

Recent studies suggest that cross-talk between salicylic acid (SA)–, jasmonic acid (JA)–,
and ethylene-dependent signaling pathways regulates plant responses to both abiotic and …

… to O 3 compared to untransformed controls, suggesting that compromising SA accumulation
can reduce O 3 sensitivity in some genotypes (MV Rao and KR Davis, unpublished results). …

O3-induced changes in growth, oxidative damage to protein, and specific activities of certain
antioxidant enzymes were investigated in wheat plants (Triticum aestivum L. cv Roblin) …

The potential role of antioxidant enzymes in protecting maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings from
chilling injury was examined by analyzing enzyme activities and isozyme profiles of chilling-…

Size effects in cupric oxide nanocrystals, synthesized using a novel electrochemical route,
having average diameters of about 4 and 6 nm, are probed by x-ray photoelectron …
