Kefir Prevents Adipose Tissue Growth Through the Induction of Apoptotic Elements in High-Fructose Corn Syrup-Fed Rats by Esra Aslan, Gokhan Sadi, Hilal Guzel, Cigdem Karaca, Omer Adil Korkmaz, Mine Kanat Pektas, Mehmet Celegen, Tugce Aladag, Seyma Oncu, Mehmet Bilgehan Pektas

“…The indirect terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) method was used to assess changes in apoptotic cells, and hematoxylin/eosin staining to determine adipocyte number and diameter. Accordingly, HFCS boosted protein kinase B (Akt) and p-Akt while reducing nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) levels and kefir treatment restored Akt induction in HFCS-treated rats despite raising NF-κB, and TNFα. …”

Subsurface drip irrigation mitigated greenhouse gas emission and improved root growth and yield in apple in semi-arid region by Jiabin Liu, Xiaodong Gao, Juanjuan Song, Mingyi Wen, Jianjun Wang, Yaohui Cai, Xining Zhao

“…We conducted a two-year field experiment to research the effects of surface drip irrigation (DI), subsurface drip irrigation (SDI), and no irrigation (CK) on soil GHG emissions (CH4, CO2, N2O), as well as the regulatory mechanisms of yield and root growth (root length density, diameter) in apple orchards. The results indicated that, compared to DI treatment, SDI treatment significantly (p < 0.05) increased apple yield by 29.37–37.97 % and augmented root length density in deeper soil layers, especially in the 20–40 cm layer, where root length density increased by 70.0 %. …”
