Physiological and transcriptomic comparisons shed light on the cold stress response mechanisms of Dendrobium spp

BMC Plant Biology
Background Dendrobium spp. comprise a group of tropical orchids with ornamental and medicinal value. Dendrobium spp. are sensitive to low temperature, and the underlying cold response regulatory mechanisms in this group are unclear.

Genetic testing for enhanced S-cone syndrome

The EuroBiotech Journal, 2017
Abstract We studied the scientific literature and disease guidelines in order to summarize the clinical utility of genetic testing for enhanced S-cone syndrome (ESCS). The disease has autosomal recessive inheritance, a prevalence of less than one per million, and is caused by mutations in the NR2E3 gene.

Refining the NaV1.7 pharmacophore of a class of venom‐derived peptide inhibitors via a combination of in silico screening and rational engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...

Conservatively transmitted alleles of key agronomic genes provide insights into the genetic basis of founder parents in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Founder parents play extremely important roles in wheat breeding. Studies into the genetic basis of founder parents and the transmission rules of favorable alleles are of great significance in improving agronomically important traits in wheat.
