Abstract:

In our hypothesis the defense budget must reduce the traditional threat and influence the economic. This research would like to see if the defense spending will influence the national economics through economic growth by demand side approach. By assuming the natural balance of power, the traditional threat come not only from military capabilities but also balanced by their economic power. The equation model formed to capture the influence of defense spending to economics growth. The regression describes that military spending had an impact on economic growth.

<strong>Grand strategy of Japan</strong> <strong>Abstract</strong> The article's purpose is to study the grand strategy of modern Japan. In East Asia, the current shift in the balance of power has affected Japan's security and defence policy. China's economic growth over the past two decades has been accompanied by military modernization and an increase in the military budget. In parallel with the growth of economic and military capabilities, territorial conflicts in the South China Sea are intensifying. There have been maritime incidents between Japan and China over the islands. The research

Abstract:

ABSTRACTIn response to the invasion of microorganisms, plants actively balance their resources for growth and defence, thus ensuring their survival. The regulatory mechanisms underlying plant immunity and growth operate through complex networks, in which the brassinosteroid phytohormone is one of the central players. In the past decades, a growing number of studies have revealed a multi-layered crosstalk between brassinosteroid-mediated growth and plant immunity. In this Review, by means of the tango metaphor, we immerse ourselves into the intimate relationship between brassinosteroid and plan

NF-κB (nuclear factor κB) plays a significant role in inflammation, immunity, cell proliferation, apoptosis and malignancy.

Any disruption of redox balance leads to oxidative stress, which causes a number of pathological conditions including inflammation and malignancy. Increased metabolic activity in cancerous cells leads to oxidative stress, which is further enhanced due to depletion of the endogenous antioxidant defence s

Abstract:

When plants are exposed to the shade of another plant, they exhibit a set of responses called shade avoidance syndrome (SAS). The most remarkable trait observed in plants subjected to low R:FR are an upward reorientation of leaves (leaf hyponasty) and a rapid elongation of leaves and stems. PIF (Phytochrome Interacting Factor) and DELLA gene families interact with endogenous and external signals, which are mediated by several photoreceptors including phytochrome, cryptochrome, and UVR8, and are the main regulators of molecular responses for shade signalling. Plants combine information about R:

ABSTRACT: Government spending in times of war plays a crucial role in shaping the economic landscape, with implications that extend beyond immediate military needs. On one hand, elevated spending can boost economic growth by creating jobs, driving demand, and expanding industries, particularly those linked to defence production. However, this heightened expenditure can also lead to significant fiscal challenges, including increased national debt, inflation, and potential resource shortages.

Plants have evolved complex physiological and biochemical mechanisms to perceive and respond to drought conditions, with plant hormones playing pivotal roles in mediating these responses. This abstract provides an overview of the key hormones involved in drought stress regulation—abscisic acid (ABA), jasmonic acid (JA), ethylene, cytokinins (CKs), and gibberellins (Gas)—and their interactions in orchestrating drought tolerance mechanisms. Abscisic acid (ABA) is the central hor

Abstract:

The analysis of numerous scientific publications demonstrates the great relevance of gender studies at the current stage of Ukrainian social development, in almost all spheres of social relations. As for ensuring equal participation of men and women in the functioning of the military organisation of the state, the implementation of such a gender balance contributes to improving civilian control over it through the possibility of developing the capacity of regulatory bodies in gender issues, promoting dialogue between the community and control bodies, and drawing public attention to the problem

The Northern Pole's polar ice is melting at an alarming rate due to climate change, significantly impacting the region's strategic landscape. The potential for economic growth and increasing security competition has led Russia, China and the US to ramp up their politico-military activities in the region. This research paper uses a qualitative method that explores the changing geopolitics of the region through a structural realist approach to examine the strategic interests and opportunities of these three countries in the Arctic.

Abstract:

Cereal crops are essential for providing essential nutrients and energy in the daily human diet. Additionally, they have a crucial role as a significant constituent of cattle feed, hence enhancing meat production. Drought, being an abiotic stressor, adversely affects the growth and yield of numerous crops on a global scale. This issue poses a significant and pressing obstacle to maintaining global cereal crop production and ensuring food security. Nanoparticles have become a valuable resource for improving cereal crop yield and productivity under ongoing rapid climate change and escalating dro

Health and wellbeing are challenged constantly by pathogens. A number of defence mechanisms exist to protect the body from pathogen colonisation and invasion, with an important role to play for the natural intestinal bacterial flora (mainly by bifidobacteria and lactobacilli). The present paper reviews the evidence on the effects of inulin and oligofructose on colonisation and translocation of pathogens and the prevention of intestinal diseases. In vitro experiments have shown that lactic acid-producing bacteria have antagonistic (antibacterial) activity against pathogens partly because of the

Abstract Trop-2 is a transmembrane signal transducer that activates cancer growth and metastatic diffusion (1). However, this does not occur in all tumor types, as Trop-2 is associated to better disease outcome in some cancers, e.g. breast and lung tumors. A prototypic pattern of Trop-2 expression in normal multistratified epithelia, e.g. epidermis, esophagus, is that of preferential expression in non-proliferating, terminally differentiated cells. The corresponding expression gradient parallels that of induction of programmed cell death, e.g. in the corneum layer of skin keratinocytes. This l

Abstract:

While beach erosion and sand loss are typically of great concern to the tourism industry, managing rapid morphological changes linked to large amounts of moving sediments is the challenge facing Grado, an important seaside resort in the northern Adriatic, Italy. The cause of the unusual management conflict is the presence of the Mula di Muggia Bank, a nearshore depositional system made up of relict and active migrating sandbanks extending up to 2 km seawards from the touristic beachfront. A reconstruction of the morpho-sedimentary evolution of the coastal system over a 200-year period was done

Abstract Brassinosteroids, the type of plant hormones requires the utmost attention in helping to induce plant respond to salt stress - a common problem global agricultural yield deals with. In conditions of salt stress, the cells are losing the integrity characterized by osmotic stress, ion toxicity, and oxidative damage and this has a very negative effect on plant growth and development. Brassinolides are key elements that regulate significant physiological and metabolism pathways thus acting in salt stress adaptation. This crucial step is restoring ion balance in the body When the plant roo
