Fast dehydration reduces bundle sheath conductance in C4 maize and sorghum
New Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 6, Page 2197-2209, December 2024.Summary In the face of anthropogenic warming, drought poses an escalating threat to food production. C4 plants offer promise in addressing this threat. C4 leaves operate a biochemical CO2 concentrating mechanism that exchanges metabolites between two partially isolated compartments (mesophyll and bundle sheath), which confers high‐productivity ...

H218O vapour labelling reveals evidence of radial Péclet effects, but in not all leaves
New Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 4, Page 1263-1274, November 2024.Summary Contradictory evidence exists regarding the relevance of Péclet‐like gradients in leaf water isotopes, making it difficult to accurately predict variation in isotope composition. Here, we use H218O vapour labelling to directly test whether leaf water isotopes diffuse back into the xylem to be carried forward to more distal leaf portions ...

Understanding rare variant contributions to autism: lessons from dystrophin-deficient model
npj Genomic MedicineDuchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophy are dystrophinopathies with a prevalence of 1:5000–6000 males, caused by pathogenic variants in DMD. These conditions are often accompanied by neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) like autism (ASD; ~20%) and ...

Plasmodesmata and intercellular molecular traffic control
New Phytologist, Volume 243, Issue 1, Page 32-47, July 2024.Summary Plasmodesmata are plasma membrane‐lined connections that join plant cells to their neighbours, establishing an intercellular cytoplasmic continuum through which molecules can travel between cells, tissues, and organs. As plasmodesmata connect almost all cells in plants, their molecular traffic carries information and resources across a range of

Molecular and functional anticancer effects of GLP/G9a inhibition by UNC0646 in MeWo melanoma cells
HeliyonIn recent years, histone methyltransferases (HMTs) have emerged as important therapeutic targets in cancer due to their oncogenic role. Herein, we used the GLP/G9a inhibitor UNC0646 to assess whether the inhibition of such HMTs could induce cell death in

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 325-336, June 2024.Background – Norway spruce (Picea abies) resin‐based products are used in human medicine. A resin‐based otic rinse also could be useful in supportive care of canine otitis externa (COE), yet information on its antimicrobial effect against canine pathogens or ototoxicity is lacking.

Scientific Reports, 2017 Non-syndromic cleft lip and/or palate (NSCLP) is a common congenital malformation with a multifactorial model of inheritance. Although several at-risk alleles have been identified, they do not completely explain the high heritability.

Functional traits of fossil plants
New Phytologist, Volume 242, Issue 2, Page 392-423, April 2024.Summary A minuscule fraction of the Earth's paleobiological diversity is preserved in the geological record as fossils. What plant remnants have withstood taphonomic filtering, fragmentation, and alteration in their journey to become part of the fossil record provide unique information on how plants functioned in paleo‐ecosystems through their traits ...

Brain Pathology, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2024.FUS R521H motor neurons derived from IPSCs exhibit reduced viability, decreased protein synthesis, and diminished cytokine production when exposed to oxidative stress. Treatment with IFNy improves translation rates and mitigates apoptosis caused by oxidative injury.
