The receptor‐like pseudokinase LENG stimulates chilling tolerance in rice by inhibiting the activity of the OsCRPK1‐OsGF14d module

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The rice receptor‐like pseudokinase LENG enhances chilling tolerance by binding to and suppressing the kinase activity of OsCRPK1, thereby preventing OsCRPK1‐mediated phosphorylation of the cold‐tolerance positive regulator OsGF14d. ABSTRACT Cold damage during the seedling and reproductive stages has a pronounced impact on rice development and yield ...

Comparative Pharmacokinetics of Intranasal or Intramuscular Atipamezole in Unsedated Dogs and Efficacy for Reversal of Xylazine Sedation

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objectives of this study were to evaluate ATIP pharmacokinetics (PK) in healthy Beagle dogs after IM and IN dosing (Phase I), and to compare the rate of reversal of IM versus IN routes for xylazine (XYL) sedation (Phase II). This study was comprised of two sequential, randomized, crossover experiments. The initial PK study dosed ATIP by IN
