Characteristics of Fluorescent Intraoperative Dyes Helpful in Gross Total Resection of High-Grade Gliomas—A Systematic Review

Diagnostics, 2020
Background: A very important aspect in the treatment of high-grade glioma is gross total resection to reduce the risk of tumor recurrence. One of the methods to facilitate this task is intraoperative fluorescence navigation.

Pale-green phenotype of atl31atl6 double mutant leaves is caused by disruption of 5-aminolevulinic acid biosynthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Arabidopsis ubiquitin ligases ATL31 and homologue ATL6 control the carbon/nitrogen nutrient and pathogen responses. A mutant with the loss-of-function of both atl31 and atl6 developed light intensity-dependent pale-green true leaves, whereas the single ...

Silencing of δ‐aminolevulinic acid dehydratase via virus induced gene silencing promotes callose deposition in plant phloem

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2022
The δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD) enzyme is an intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway of tetrapyrroles. It combines two δ‐aminolevulinic acid (δ‐ALA) molecules to form the pyrrole, porphobilinogen, an important precursor for plant pigments ...
