Jasmonate primes plant responses to extracellular ATP. [PDF]
Plant JSUMMARY Extracellular ATP (eATP) signaling in Arabidopsis thaliana is mediated by the purinoceptor P2K1. Previous studies have clarified that the downstream transcriptional responses to eATP involve jasmonate (JA)‐based signaling components such as the JA receptor (COI1) and JA‐responsive bHLH transcription factors (MYCs).

Resveratrol Affects Cell Activities, Induces Apoptosis and Regulates AMPK Signaling Pathway in Pleural Mesothelioma Cells. [PDF]
FASEB JThis graphical abstract presents the study of Resveratrol as a potential adjuvant therapy for Pleural Mesothelioma (PM), focusing on the epithelioid and biphasic histotypes using IST‐MES 2 and MSTO‐211H cell lines. Following 24 h of cell seeding, the cells were treated with Resveratrol, and various analyses were conducted to assess its effects.

Development of visible light-sensitive human neuropsin (OPN5) via single amino acid substitution. [PDF]
FEBS LettThe present study determines a key amino acid residue, Lys91, for defining UV sensitivity of human OPN5. Heterologous action spectroscopy of the wild type and K91 mutants of OPN5 in HEK293T cells reveals that substitution of Lys91 with neutral (alanine) or acidic amino acids (glutamic or aspartic acids) causes substantial shifts in spectral sensitivity

High-Vigor Maize Seeds Resist Fusarium graminearum Infection through Stronger Ca2+ Signaling
Agriculture, 2022 Seeds with high vigor have strong resistance to various adverse environmental conditions. However, little is known about how seed vigor affects the resistance of seeds to biotic stress.

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 The adenohypophysis contains five secretory cell types (somatotrophs, lactotrophs, thyrotrophs, corticotrophs, and gonadotrophs), each secreting a different hormone, and controlled by different hypothalamic releasing hormones (HRHs).

Aequorin as a Useful Calcium-Sensing Reporter in Candida albicans
Journal of Fungi, 2021 In Candida albicans, calcium ions (Ca2+) regulate the activity of several signaling pathways, especially the calcineurin signaling pathway. Ca2+ homeostasis is also important for cell polarization, hyphal extension, and plays a role in contact sensing ...

Aequorin mutants with increased thermostability [PDF]
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2014 Bioluminescent labels can be especially useful for in vivo and live animal studies due to the negligible bioluminescence background in cells and most animals, and the non-toxicity of bioluminescent reporter systems. Significant thermal stability of bioluminescent labels is essential, however, due to the longitudinal nature and physiological temperature

PLoS ONE, 2021 The Ca2+-binding photoprotein aequorin is a complex of apoAequorin (apoprotein) and (S)-2-peroxycoelenterazine. Aequorin can be regenerated by the incubation of apoAequorin with coelenterazine and molecular oxygen (O2).

Plants, 2021 Increasing evidence indicates that water activated by plasma discharge, termed as plasma-activated water (PAW), can promote plant growth and enhance plant defence responses. Nevertheless, the signalling pathways activated in plants in response to PAW are
