SC5b-9-Induced Pulmonary Microvascular Endothelial Hyperpermeability Participates in Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury
Mechanical ventilation with large tidal volumes can increase lung alveolar permeability and initiate inflammatory responses, termed ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). VILI is characterized by an influx of ...

Expression of Maize Gene Encoding C4-Pyruvate Orthophosphate Dikinase (PPDK) and C4-Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase (PEPC) in Transgenic Arabidopsis
To improve the efficiency of CO2 fixation in C3 photosynthesis, C4-cycle genes were overexpressed in Arabidopsis plants. In this study, a full-length cDNA for pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) with 971 amin...
