Background: To determine potential effects of autophagy activation on hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) induced damage of a rat alveolar epithelial cell line.Methods: CCL149 cells were subjected to autophagy agonist (rapamycin, Rap), autophagy inhibitor (3-methyladenine, 3-MA) or PBS for 1 h before H/R treatment for 2 h, 4 h and 6 h.The optimal concentra
The human body is a permissible medium, and radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) waves pass through this medium.The effects exerted by RF-EMF devices such as mobile phones on brain tissues are categorised into thermal and non-thermal effects.The aim of this review was to analyse the interactions and interface between RF-EMF exposure and th
Increased frequency and intensity of drought events consequently affect oak high forests with the process of further decline, compromised growth and questionable natural regeneration.To overcome such difficulties, new adaptive strategies Changing Mat are required.Coppicing, as the oldest way of forest management, might provide some solutions.In our
