In fact, vertebrates utilize two brains to regulate the gut: the CNS (brain and spinal cord) and the enteric nervous system (ENS), the system of nerves within the wall of the GI tract
Maintaining optimal levels of L-glutathione allows the body to maintain an effective immune response against pathogens and other threats
In contrast, ascorbate deficiency enhances susceptibility to the necrotrophic pathogen Alternaria brassicicola , in which defence is mediated by jasmonic acid and ethylene signalling (Botanga et al
