The mitochondrial genome of soybean reveals complex genome structures and gene evolution at intercellular and phylogenetic levels. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Determining mitochondrial genomes is important for elucidating vital activities of seed plants. Mitochondrial genomes are specific to each plant species because of their variable size, complex structures and patterns of gene losses and gains during ...

Production of a subunit vaccine candidate against porcine post-weaning diarrhea in high-biomass transplastomic tobacco [PDF]

, 2012
Post-weaning diarrhea (PWD) in piglets is a major problem in piggeries worldwide and results in severe economic losses. Infection with Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is the key culprit for the PWD disease.

Chronic PET‐Microplastic Exposure: Disruption of Gut–Liver Homeostasis and Risk of Hepatic Steatosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic exposure to environmentally relevant PET microplastics disrupts gut–liver homeostasis, leading to hepatic steatosis, early fibrosis, and altered gut microbiota. These effects signal metabolic imbalance and gut–liver axis impairment, emphasizing chronic microplastic ingestion as an emerging environmental health risk linked to non‐communicable ...

Assembly-free reads accurate identification (AFRAID) approach outperforms other methods of DNA barcoding in the walnut family (Juglandaceae)

Plant Diversity
DNA barcoding has been extensively used for species identification. However, species identification of mixed samples or degraded DNA is limited by current DNA barcoding methods.

An analysis of Echinacea chloroplast genomes: Implications for future botanical identification

Scientific Reports, 2017
Echinacea is a common botanical used in dietary supplements, primarily to treat upper respiratory tract infections and to support immune function. There are currently thought to be nine species in the genus Echinacea. Due to very low molecular divergence

Folic Acid‐Modified Ginger‐Derived Exosome‐Like Nanoparticles Co‐Delivering Sunitinib Suppress Renal Cell Carcinoma via PI3K‐Akt Pathway Inhibition, P‐gp Downregulation, and Macrophage Reprogramming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FPD‐GELNs co‐deliver Su and bioactive components. This active‐passive dual‐targeting strategy suppresses the progression of RCC through the following mechanisms: 1) inhibition of the PI3K‐Akt signaling pathway; 2) downregulation of ABCB1/P‐gp to enhance the chemosensitivity of RCC to Su; and 3) reprogramming of macrophages toward M1 polarization and ...
