Exogenous cystine increases susceptibility of drug-resistant Salmonella to gentamicin by promoting oxidation of glutathione metabolism and imbalance of intracellular redox levels by Junyuan Du, Junyuan Du, Zhiyi Wu, Zhiyi Wu, Chunyang Zhu, Chunyang Zhu, Heng Yang, Heng Yang, Feike Zhao, Feike Zhao, Binghu Fang, Binghu Fang

“…The multifunctional electronic enzyme marker was used to determine intracellular reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG), ferrous iron on (Fe2+), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. The expression of glutathione and stress genes was determined using real-time quantitative PCR.ResultWe confirmed that exogenous cystine increased the lethal effect of gentamicin against strain S. enterica Typhimurium (ATCC 14028) and other clinically resistant Salmonella serotypes. …”

Study of the Instantaneous Water Level Measurement Method on Unsteady Flow Based on Single Camera and Fixed Scale Compensation in the Tunnel Model by Weihua Ding, Hu Li, Fan Yang, Bin Hou, Haibin Xue, Feihu Wang, Zongxiao Zhang, Xinhong Wang

“…In order to capture dynamic images of all fixed scales with a clear water surface, a single camera is set at a far position to continuously record the water level change process within the model range. According to the height of the fixed scale, the image accuracy is compensated and the effect of the wide-angle image distortion is automatically avoided. …”

Stress and Memory: Behavioral Effects and Neurobiological Mechanisms by Carmen Sandi, M. Teresa Pinelo-Nava

“…Summarizing on those conditions in which there was enough information, we conclude that high stress levels, whether intrinsic (triggered by the cognitive challenge) or extrinsic (induced by conditions completely unrelated to the cognitive task), tend to facilitate Pavlovian conditioning (in a linear-asymptotic manner), while being deleterious for spatial/explicit information processing (which with regard to intrinsic stress levels follows an inverted U-shape effect). …”
