Transcriptomics Unveil Dsx1 as a Critical Regulator in Sexual Dimorphism of Crustaceans

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexually dimorphic traits are involved in reproductive competition and are shaped by sex‐biased gene expression. This study identifies Dsx1 as a key male‐biased gene in Morinoia aosen and demonstrates through RNA interference that its disruption feminizes male‐specific T3 leg structures.

Effect of chitosan‐containing desensitizers applied prior to bleaching on the physical properties of enamel

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the effects of adding chitosan (Chi) to desensitizing agents applied before dental bleaching on enamel properties. Bovine enamel specimens were allocated to seven groups (n = 12): no treatment (negative control), 2% NaF (positive control), 2% NaF + 2% Chi, 2% NaF + 5% Chi, 2% NaF + 5% KNO3, 2% NaF + 5% KNO3 + 2 ...

Functional and transcriptomic analyses in Neurospora crassa reveal a crucial role for the N‐glycoprotein deglycosylation process in fungal homeostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In Neurospora crassa, a cytosolic GH18 endo‐β‐n‐acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) functions as an active deglycosylating enzyme. Deletion of this severely alters tolerance to multiple stress conditions and causes extensive transcriptomic reprogramming, including upregulation of a GH20 exo‐β‐n‐acetylhexosaminidase under ER stress, indicating that N. crassa

Divergent roles of ent‐kaurene oxidase paralogs in rice momilactone biosynthesis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Rice contains a five‐gene tandem array of genes encoding members of the ent‐kaurene oxidase (KO) family, with OsKOL4 and OsKOL5 playing divergent roles in momilactone metabolism, but both acting in the production of antifungal and antibacterial phytoalexins, which are important for disease resistance.

CP32, a novel anti‐oomycete cyclic peptide, interferes with cell‐wall deposition in Phytophthora infestans

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The small cyclic peptide CP32 effectively inhibits Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of potato and tomato late blight. Combined biochemical and phenotypic analyses demonstrate that CP32 disrupts cell wall biosynthesis, a key process in pathogen infection, resulting in a marked reduction of disease symptoms in plants.

Three‐Dimensional Scaffolds for Bone, Soft Tissue, and Periodontal Regeneration

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional scaffolds offer tissue‐specific control of architecture, mechanics, porosity, and functionalisation to improve bone, soft tissue, and periodontal regeneration. ABSTRACT The oral cavity presents three distinct regenerative challenges: restoration of alveolar bone volume and stability, augmentation of soft mucogingival tissues, and ...
