Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 2-Hydroxy-3-[(2-aryloxyethyl)amino]propyl 4-[(Alkoxycarbonyl)amino]benzoates by Jan Tengler, Iva Kapustíková, Matúš Peško, Rodney Govender, Stanislava Keltošová, Petr Mokrý, Peter Kollár, Jim O'Mahony, Aidan Coffey, Katarína Král'ová, Josef Jampílek

“…Compounds with predicted amphiphilic properties were also tested for their effects on the rate of photosynthetic electron transport (PET) in spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts. All butyl derivatives significantly stimulated the rate of PET, indicating that the compounds can induce conformational changes in thylakoid membranes resulting in an increase of their permeability and so causing uncoupling of phosphorylation from electron transport.…”

The Regulatory Effect of Se-Cd Interaction on Tea Plants (<i>Camellia sinensis</i> (L.) O. Kuntze) Under Cadmium Stress by Yanyun Sun, Yueling Zhao, Hongyu Zhou, Faxing Li, Yuanyuan Wang, Xiao Du

“…In conclusion, Cd treatment induced stress in tea plants, which resulted in a certain stimulatory effect on photosynthesis, but caused some damage to the photosynthetic apparatus in chloroplasts. The results of the Cd + Se treatment suggest that the interaction between Se and Cd can mitigate the toxicity experienced by tea plants under Cd stress.…”
