Land use overrides climatic controls on soil organic nitrogen transformations: Contrasting responsiveness between forest and cropland ecosystems

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil organic nitrogen (SON) transformation is critical for global nutrient cycling and ecosystem productivity, yet how its responsiveness to climate change differs across diverse land use types remains poorly resolved.

TcALS knockdown accelerates metamorphosis via insulin signaling in Tribolium castaneum

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
RNAi silencing of TcALS accelerates larva‐to‐pupa metamorphosis in Tribolium castaneum. Abstract Insect metamorphosis is an evolutionary adaptation precisely regulated by nutritional and hormonal cues. The red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, a major stored‐product pest, serves as an excellent model for studying this process.

Is Asthma Remission a New Achievable Goal? A Review of the Current Drug‐Related Evidence and Predictors

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in asthma therapies have shown that clinical remission may be an achievable therapeutic goal for patients with asthma. This review discusses the current definitions of remission in asthma, the predictors of remission, airway inflammation/epithelial damage in asthma remission, airway remodeling, paradigms in defining remission and ...

Characterization of soybean chitinase genes induced by rhizobacteria involved in the defense against Fusarium oxysporum

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Rhizobacteria are capable of inducing defense responses via the expression of pathogenesis-related proteins (PR-proteins) such as chitinases, and many studies have validated the functions of plant chitinases in defense responses. Soybean (Glycine max) is

Clinical and molecular features of primary gliosarcoma with digital spatial whole‐transcriptome analysis of glial and mesenchymal components

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
We report the clinical and genetic features of an institutional cohort of primary adult gliosarcomas compared to glioblastoma. We performed spatial whole‐transcriptome analysis on glial and sarcomatous regions of four cases to compare gene expression profiles and validated differential protein expression for two markers in tissue sections.

Functional analysis of the Arabidopsis thaliana AtEP3 endochitinase

open access: yes, 2001
Chitinases are enzymes that are capable of catalyzing the hydrolysis of chitin, a homopolymer of N-acetylglucosamine. Chitin is the main constituent of the exoskeleton of insects, of crustacean shells and of the cell wall of many fungi but is absent in ...

Cell wall degrading isoenzyme profiles of Trichoderma biocontrol strains show correlation with rDNA species

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2004
Species of the fungus Trichoderma, a genus of Hyphomycetes, are ubiquitous in the environment, but especially in soil. They have been used in a wide range of commercial applications including the production of hydrolases and in the biological control of ...

Human Chitinases and Chitinase-Like Proteins as Indicators for Inflammation and Cancer

open access: yesBiomarker Insights, 2007
Human Glyco_18 domain-containing proteins constitute a family of chitinases and chitinase-like proteins. Chitotriosidase and AMCase are true enzymes which hydrolyse chitin and have a C-terminal chitin-binding domain. YKL-40, YKL-39, SI-CLP and murine YM1/2 proteins possess solely Glyco_18 domain and do not have the hydrolytic activity.

Human brain matters: Navigating the neuropathology of COVID‐19

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Severe COVID‐19 is associated with vascular dysregulation and chronic neuroinflammation, leading to axonal injury and neurodegeneration. In long COVID or PASC, persistent alterations in neuroimaging and biofluid biomarkers reflect ongoing neuronal damage and neuroinflammation, contributing to long‐term neurological symptoms including fatigue, cognitive

Structure and function of chitinases from glycoside hydrolase family 19

open access: yes, 2011
Glycoside hydrolase family 19 chitinases are found in plants, bacteria and viruses, playing various roles. Plant chitinases are important for defence and development, whereas bacterial examples are useful for nutrition.
