Genome-Wide Identification, Characterization, and Regulation of RWP-RK Gene Family in the Nitrogen-Fixing Clade

Plants, 2020
RWP-RK is a plant-specific family of transcription factors, involved in nitrate response, gametogenesis, and nodulation. However, genome-wide characterization, phylogeny, and the regulation of RWP-RK genes in the nodulating and non-nodulating plant ...

Exploring vaginal microbiota–tissue resident stem cell crosstalk: VCAM1/Akt signaling ‐mediated enhancement of regenerative capacity

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Vaginal microbiota‐derived secretory factors enhance the regenerative capacity of human endometrial stem cells by upregulating VCAM1 and activating PI3K/Akt signaling. This microbiota–stem cell crosstalk promotes self‐renewal, migration, multilineage differentiation, and metabolic reprogramming in vitro and in vivo, establishing a novel microbiota ...

Effects of salinity on pollen germination in wild and cultivated leguminous species

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca
Plant sexual reproduction plays a crucial role in species persistence, land colonisation, and the enhancement of genetic diversity. Sexual reproduction in plants encompasses several key processes, including gametogenesis, fertilisation, zygote ...

The subunit of RNA N6-methyladenosine methyltransferase OsFIP regulates early degeneration of microspores in rice.

PLoS Genetics, 2019
N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation plays important roles during development in different species. However, knowledge of m6A RNA methylation in monocots remains limited.

Assessment of Oxidative Stress, Vitellogenin, and Human Health Risks Derived From Nile Tilapia Exposed to Metals and Metalloids in Southeastern Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban coastal lagoons are highly vulnerable ecosystems increasingly affected by metal contamination, as well as multiple anthropogenic stressors. This study evaluated ecotoxicological and human health risks associated with chronic metal exposure in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) from an anthropogenically impacted lagoon in southeastern ...

Reproductive Challenges of the Ageing Female: A Comprehensive Narrative Review

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Changes in societal norms over the last few decades have resulted in novel family planning trends, notably delayed childbearing and increased maternal age at the birth of the first child. Despite advances in reproductive medicine, ageing poses significant challenges.

The use of deidentified organ donor testes for research

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Our knowledge of testis development and function mainly comes from research using mammalian model organisms, primarily the mouse. However, there are integral differences between men and other mammalian species regarding cellular composition and expression profiles during fetal and post‐natal testis development and in the mature testis ...

Shaping Future Children, Sex Selection, and “Normal” Human Capacities

Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT If we think that parents have an obligation to have a healthy child then we need to know what counts as healthy, when male and female children are born with very different capacities. If we give up on the idea that our obligations to use technologies of genetic selection are discharged once we try to secure the birth of a healthy child, as ...

Mesoscale Oceanographic Processes Drive the Seasonal Abundance of the Seabob Shrimp Xiphopenaeus spp. on the Eastern Brazilian Shelf

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seabob shrimp (Xiphopenaeus spp.) is a primary fishery resource in Brazil, with considerable economic and social importance along the coast. While environmental drivers of its life cycle are well‐documented for southeastern and southern populations, the factors modulating populations in the Eastern Brazilian Shelf remain poorly understood,
