Metabolic pathways of C3 and C4 plants. (Credit: Williams et al., 2013) What this tells us is that many plants – including food crops and species of trees – which use the C 3 carbon fixing ...

Previous work uncovered the role of the complement system in neuroinflammation and synaptic loss in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The third component, C3, central in ...

Secondary metabolic pathways, which are turned on in response to specific cues and make natural products, typically make a variety of products. Some pathways make only one or two products, and ...

For example, in plants, specific metabolic pathways can produce glucose and chlorophyll. Metabolic pathways can be described as a series of chemical reactions that start with a substrate and ...

This video introduces a theory-driven multivariate behavior genetics model: the independent pathway model. The independent pathway model, also called the biometric factor model, first creates ...

including up to 89% mean reduction of complement component 3 (C3), which led to reductions of 85% in AH50 and 100% in Wieslab AP, both markers of alternative pathway complement activity.
