ABSTRACT A key challenge for the genetic improvement of canola (Brassica napus), one of the world's most important oilseeds, is the limited natural variation for commercially important traits. The creation of new variation is hindered by the lack of functional knowledge about genes controlling these traits.

OsMT2b Regulates Pollen Development and ROS Homeostasis in a Photoperiod‐Dependent Manner
ABSTRACT Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are signalling molecules that promote programmed cell death in animal and plant systems. However, their role in rice (Oryza sativa L.) anther development is unclear. In this study, we show that lower transcript levels of the metallothionein gene OsMT2b in japonica rice plants obtained by RNA interference (RNAi ...

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

Inborn Errors of Metabolism in Children with Unexplained Developmental Delay in Misan, Iraq
Objectives: We sought to determine the prevalence of inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) in children with unexplained developmental delay and their types. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in Misan, Iraq, over a period of one year.

AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

ABSTRACT The vital cofactors NADH and NADPH are prone to hydration, forming hydroxylated redox‐inactive derivatives (NADHX and NADPHX) in cells. These damaged metabolites are repaired by two highly conserved enzymes, an NAD(P)HX dehydratase (NAXD) and an NAD(P)HX epimerase (NAXE).

Background: Inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) refer to a group of hereditary disorders that occur due to the disruption of normal biochemical processes in the body. Although the incidence of IEM is rare, together their incidence is more than 1:1000.1 IEM

Metabolic Stroke: Atypical Presentation of Succinic Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase Deficiency
ABSTRACT Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive neurometabolic disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in ALDH5A1, encoding the mitochondrial enzyme SSADH. This enzyme catalyses the conversion of succinic semialdehyde to succinic acid in the γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) degradation pathway.
