Evaluation of the gut microbiome and sex hormones in postmenopausal women with newly diagnosed hormone receptor-positive breast cancer versus healthy women: a prospective case-control study

Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology
Purpose The functional composition and diversity of the gut microbiome may affect breast cancer risk by modulation of systemic sex hormones. Gut bacteria with β-glucuronidase enzymatic activity may deconjugate estrogens, leading to increased estrogen ...

Vaginal Microbiota and Ovarian Cancer: A New Frontier in Immunomodulation and Diagnosis

Immunology, EarlyView.
Microbial imbalance, dysbiosis, plays a role in ovarian carcinogenesis by interacting with the immune system and altering inflammatory pathways, notably Th17 pathways. In contrast, eubiosis, characterised by Lactobacillus dominance, protects against infections and maintains hormone metabolism.

lincRNA6679 promotes FnPR1B expression via phosphorylation‐activated FnWRKY14 to enhance strawberry resistance to Botrytis cinerea

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In strawberry, Botrytis cinerea induces the expression of the long, intergenic non‐coding RNA lincRNA667，which upregulates the transcription factor gene FnWRKY14. FnWRKY14 then binds to the promoter of the pathogenesis‐related gene FnPR1B, enhancing strawberry resistance to B. cinerea.

OsCPN10a, cooperating with OsCPN20 and OsHSP60‐3B negatively regulate ABA signaling and enhance seed storability in rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Abscisic acid signaling homeostasis is essential for seed storability. The molecular chaperone OsCPN10a enhances rice seed storability by forming a trimeric chaperone complex with OsCPN20‐OsHSP60‐3B that attenuates abscisic acid signaling via direct interaction with OsPYL10‐OsABIL1, thereby maintaining starch integrity and offering a promising target ...

Endometrial Dysbiosis: A Possible Association with Estrobolome Alteration

Biomolecules
Background/Objectives: Microbiota modification at the endometrial level can favor gynecological diseases and impair women’s fertility. The overgrowth of pathogen microorganisms is related to the contemporary alteration of estrogen-metabolizing bacteria ...

The Arabidopsis NPF7.2 mediates coumarin uptake for root iron acquisition

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Iron (Fe) is a transition metal necessary for achieving essential physiological processes throughout the plant lifecycle. In Arabidopsis thaliana, secreting Fe‐mobilizing coumarins (FMC) is a key mechanism enabling roots to acquire nonbioavailable Fe present in soils.

Cell cycle follows ‘pause and play’ mechanism in salt and cold stress recovery in diverse plant species

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Changes to organismal growth induced by environmental stress are orchestrated at the cellular level. These periods of stress may be followed by recovery periods, when plants have the opportunity to return to normal growth conditions. However, the cell cycle mechanisms underlying recovery are poorly understood.

Development of the HTRF assay to evaluate the auxin‐induced binding between TIR1 and IAA7

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Auxin plays diverse roles in plant growth and development, including sensing environmental changes. Quantifying the interaction between auxin coreceptors provides the molecular basis for cells to sense and adapt to environmental cues. Although several assays are available, a more high‐throughput method is necessary to efficiently evaluate the ...

Anti-inflammatory potential of Lactobacillus plantarum LS/07 in acute colitis in rats

Acta Veterinaria, 2018
To evaluate the efficiency of the probiotic strain Lactobacillus plantarum LS/07 in dextran sulphate sodium (DSS) induced acute colitis selected biochemical (activity of β-glucuronidase), microbiological (counts of lactobacilli and coliforms), and ...

Expression pattern of AtABCC13/MRP11 reveals developmental, hormonal, and nutritional regulations

Biologia Plantarum, 2014
ATP binding cassette (ABC) proteins constitute one of the largest families of transporters. In Arabidopsis thaliana, over 100 genes encoding ABC transporters have been identified.
