Gradual Response of Cyanobacterial Thylakoids to Acute High-Light Stress—Importance of Carotenoid Accumulation

open access: yesCells, 2021
Light plays an essential role in photosynthesis; however, its excess can cause damage to cellular components. Photosynthetic organisms thus developed a set of photoprotective mechanisms (e.g., non-photochemical quenching, photoinhibition) that can be ...

Phylum Gemmatimonadota and Its Role in the Environment

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Bacteria are an important part of every ecosystem that they inhabit on Earth. Environmental microbiologists usually focus on a few dominant bacterial groups, neglecting less abundant ones, which collectively make up most of the microbial diversity.

miR-379 mediates insulin resistance and obesity through impaired angiogenesis and adipogenesis regulated by ER stress

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2022
We investigated the role of microRNA (miR-379) in the pathogenesis of obesity, adipose tissue dysfunction, and insulin resistance (IR). We used miR-379 knockout (miR-379KO) mice to test whether loss of miR-379 affects high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity ...
