Small signaling peptides (SSP, typically 5-75 aa in size) are a fast growing class of regulatory molecules involved in practically all aspects of plant vital activity including morphogenesis, in particular regulation of cell division and differentiation in meristems, cell expansion, main root and lateral root development, immune and other responses to environmental stimuli. For Arabidopsis thaliana, more than 1000 SSP sequences are already postulated; however, only few of them have been functionally characterized and linked to a putative receptor. One of the best-studied pair of a SSP and i t s p u t a t i v e r e c e p t o r i s a p e p t i d e C LV 3 (RTVPSGPDPLHH, pCLV3) and a receptor like kinase, CLV1. Genes coding them are expressed in shoot apical meristem of Arabidopsis, and this ligand/receptor pair modulates stem cell maintenance or cellular differentiation in shoot meristems. However, it has been shown that addition of pCLV3 to culture medium of Arabidopsis influences root growth though no putative receptors of it have been identified in roots.

We studied the effects of the synthetic peptide pCLV3 in a wide range of concentrations including ultra-low ones on the dynamics of the main root and lateral roots growth of Arabidopsis and also its effects on spontaneous processes with reactive oxygen species (ROS) participation that constantly go on in aqueous bicarbonate solutions. pCLV3 inhibits growth of the main root in concentrations -6 -9 -14 -16 10 - 10 M and 10 - 10 M, while in -11 -12 concentrations 10 -10 M it stimulates main root growth. Hence in the range of low and ultralow concentrations a bi-phasic (hormetic) effect of pCLV3 on the main root growth (indication of cellular proliferation) was observed. pCLV3 affected also appearance of lateral roots (indication of differentiation). It is notable that most intense stimulation of the appearance of lateral roots was produced by concentrations of pCLV3 exerting inhibitory effects on the main root growth.

The balance between cellular proliferation and differentiation is a key aspect of development in multicellular organisms. In Arabidopsis roots it is modulated by the balance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) between the zones of cell

proliferation and the zone of cell elongation where 1 differentiation begins [ ].

It was notable that addition of pCLV3 to aqueous solutions of bicarbonates, where ROS are constantly produced changes the parameters of free radical reactions evaluated by measuring the intensity of stimulated photon emission from these solutions. Effects of pCLV3 changed in a wide range of its concentrations also non-monotonously being most strong in those concentrations that most effectively inhibit main root growth and -7 -8 stimulated lateral roots growth (10 - 10 M and -14 -16 2 10 - 10 M). We previously suggested [ ] that a stable non-equilibrium (electronically excited) state in bicarbonate solutions is provided by spontaneous charge separation in aqueous systems discovered by G. H. Pollack. Such a state may be highly sensitive to low intensity physical and chemical factors acting upon the structuraldynamical processes in aqueous systems via the resonance mechanism. It is notable that all peptides and polypeptides are characterized by peculiar distribution of hydrophilic and hydrophobic aa side groups along the peptide chain providing specific hydration atmosphere for each particular peptide. On the other hand the common future of all peptides is the presence of regular peptide bonds. According to Gilbert Ling’s “Polarized 3 Multilayer Theory” [ ] dipolar backbone NH and CO groups are the primary seats of water sorption. In oligopeptides to which RTV belongs it is highly probable that sufficient quantity of peptide bonds are open for interaction with water and hence are capable to form multiple layers of highly polarized water molecules that may dynamically modulate multiple layers of highly polarized water may provide for their versatile role in regulation of various biological functions not only in plants but in all living systems.

Marine Therapy: History and latest research When we talk about Marine Therapy, we have to remember that our body is water, 75%, more or less like the earth. But nowadays, we know that this water is seawater. Life is still be produced in the ocean today as Craig Venter demonstrated.

This was the hypothesis of René Quinton. Life appeared in the ocean and the cell try to maintain its origin.

René Quinton was very famous when I died. He was compared to Darwin and to Pasteur. He and his followers, as Doctor Jean Jarricot, saved a generation of babies in France called Baby’s Quinton.

There is an Original Protocol of René Quinton to produce the seawater. The point where seawater is harvested is very important. The phase between phytoplankton and zooplankton in the ocean food

chain is the most important point of the protocol.

Here, the elements inside the seawater are transformed from inorganic form to organic form for the rest of the food chain. This seawater can not be heated, so to make it sterilized a 0,22 micra-filtration is used.

Linus Pauling said that all diseases can be explained by a mineral imbalance and the seawater contains 78 elements totally bioavailable and balanced.

The effect of these elements on our immune system was explained by Doctor José Miguel Sempere in three articles. Isotonic seawater modules the immune system.

Water Jour nal

Welcome to WATER - a multidisciplinary journal that brings together water-oriented research from diverse disciplines.

Throughout nature, water plays pivotal roles.

Yet there has been no single venue in which the wisdom gained in studying water within one discipline is readily available to those studying water within other disciplines. The goal of this open-access journal is to remedy that problem.

After all, water is water, regardless of discipline.

Our journal serves as a communication hub among diverse disciplines dealing with water.

We hope for collective learning.

WATER’s focus is on experimental work, although computational approaches will be considered if they are accompanied by serious experimental studies. WATER carries original research papers, reviews, and tutorials on advances made within the journal’s scope, which includes the role of water in the following disciplines: chemistry; physics; animal biology; plant, agricultural, food, and pharmaceutical science; and environmental, oceanographic, and atmospheric science. All of this appears in this single, easily accessible, and hopefully stimulating forum.

All articles are peer-reviewed; reviewer comments, together with responses by authors, are published as an integral part of each paper.

We thank you for your interest, and welcome your contribution.

Please direct any questions to staff@waterjournal.org.

Best wishes, Gerald H. Pollack Editor Current Volume http://www.waterjournal.org

THE HEALING POWER OF MINERAL


SPRINGS IN BULGARIA Bulgaria is a global wellness destination because of its diverse composition and properties of mineral water.

Water is the universal solution to harmonious health and longevity ~ various mineral water springs are key to balancing and nurturing living systems.

The healing power of mineral springs has been recognized since the time of the Thracians, who were renowned as healers. "The Holy Springs of Thrace" were famous throughout the Roman Empire. Few countries in Europe can rival Bulgaria's spa, thalassoo, medspa and wellness tourism, with its abundance and diversity of thermal mineral waters and curative mud deposits.

In Sofia

REGIONAL CHOICES IDEAS OF WERE TO GO….

Mineral springs located in the southern part of the country are influenced by the Mediterranean climate.

Cool mineral springs are found throughout the country Narechen (Asenovgrad region), Shipkovo (Troyan region), Ovcha Kupel (Sofia), Smochan, (Lovech region), Voneshta Voda (Gabrovo region), Merichleri (Simeonovgrad region), and elsewhere.

The spring with the highest temperature is Sapareva Banya (103oS), also the only geyser in Bulgaria and Continental Europe. The most famous thermal springs in the Balkan Mountains are in the regions of Varshets, Barziya, Lakatnik, Opletnya; on the Sofia plain (up to 49 sources) - Bankya, Gorna Banya, Knyazhevo, Ovcha Kupel, Sofia, Pancharevo; in the Srednogorie - Strelcha (40°С), Hisarya (49.5°С), Banya (51.1°С), Pavel Banya (54.6°С), Starozagorski Bani (45.8°С); along the valley of Struma River – Blagoevgrad, Simitli, Sandanski (76°С), Levunovo and Marikostinovo; along the valley of Mesta River – Banya (56оС), Dobrinishte (43°С) and the village of Eleshnitsa (56°С); in the Rhodope Mountains – Devin, Velingrad, Banite.

In Bulgaria, the scientists examine not only the chemistry of the water, but also its physical and biological properties.

This exact science allow for you to visit the springs most suited for your rejuvenate.

LITTLE HISTORY Sofia preserves many valuable monuments of its long and storied past.

Golf courses are within an hour’s drive of the city.

In the city of Ihtiman and the village of Ravno Polye, there is offered excellent facilities to play and practice.

Visitors exploring the city’s streets can see remnants of The Eastern Gate from the days when Sofia was Serdika and Sredets, dating from the 2nd-4th centuries CE. These remains are exhibited in the underpass connecting the Presidential Palace and The Ministerial Council, surrounded by shops selling traditional Bulgarian souvenirs and rosewater.

In the immediate vicinity, other historical remains are preserved, such as the municipal baths, the marketplace, and The Holy Sunday Church.

Adjacent to this church is the Theological Seminary, which houses The National Historical and Archeological Museum.

Serdika was the favorite city of Constantine the Great (reign 306-337), who said “Serdika is my Rome.”

Roughly 175, massive fortified walls, with four watchtowers were built to protect the city , and a second outer fortified wall was added during the 5th-6th centuries. The city’s flourished for a second time under Justinian the Great (reign 527- 565).

Sofia is also noteworthy as hardly another city in all of Europe is home to more Christian, Islamic, and Jewish monuments so close together.

During the time of The Second Bulgarian Empire (1185-1393), Sredets took on the appearance of a large Medieval city – its narrow, crowded streets witnessed the construction of more and more small churches and monasteries, which later became Sofia’s Holy Mountain. The city gained its present name at the end of the 14th century, in honor of the city’s major symbol, The Saint Sofia Basilica.
