From recognition to response: integrated signaling pathways determining pollen acceptance and rejection in Brassicaceae

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Generation of competent offspring is vital for the prosperity of flowering plants. The pistil not only functions as a conduit for pollen tubes to grow to the ovary but also provides a selective venue for facilitating the growth of compatible pollen tubes and discouraging invaders and incompatible pollen.

Enhanced Expression of Glutathione S-Transferase in the Hippocampus Following Acute Treatment With Trimethyltin In Vivo

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
We investigated the effects of treatment with trimethyltin (TMT) on the expression of glutathione-related enzymes in mouse hippocampus. TMT promoted the expression of glutathione S-transferase (GST) Ya/Yc mRNA, and GSTA2 protein, but not that of ...

Associated bacteria affect sexual reproduction by altering gene expression and metabolic processes in a biofilm inhabiting diatom [PDF]

, 2019
Diatoms are unicellular algae with a fundamental role in global biogeochemical cycles as major primary producers at the base of aquatic food webs. In recent years, chemical communication between diatoms and associated bacteria has emerged as a key factor

Quiescin Sulfhydryl Oxidase‐Like 1 Positively Regulates Seed Dormancy in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed dormancy is an adaptive strategy that enables plants to survive adverse environmental conditions. In agricultural contexts, an optimal level of dormancy is essential: Insufficient dormancy can result in preharvest sprouting, while excessive dormancy may lead to uneven germination and poor stand establishment in subsequent crops.

Coexistence of Wolbachia with Buchnera aphidicola and a secondary symbiont in the aphid Cinara cedri.

, 2004
Intracellular symbiosis is very common in the insect world. For the aphid Cinara cedri, we have identified by electron microscopy three symbiotic bacteria that can be characterized by their different sizes, morphologies, and electrodensities.

Differential redox state contributes to sex disparities in the response to influenza virus infection in male and female mice [PDF]

, 2018
Influenza virus replicates intracellularly exploiting several pathways involved in the regulation of host responses. The outcome and the severity of the infection are thus strongly conditioned by multiple host factors, including age, sex, metabolic ...

Harnessing blue light photobiomodulation for cancer therapy: Evidence from a systematic review

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Conventional treatments for various types of cancer are often associated with tumor recurrence and aggressiveness. Photobiomodulation with blue light (BL; 450–470 nm) emerges as a promising alternative with antitumor effects. This systematic review, with 37 in vitro and in vivo studies from 2002 to 2024, revealed that BL reduces cell viability ...

Astaxanthin attenuates AFB1-induced hepatotoxicity by activating Nrf2 and inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-induced hepatotoxicity is a common toxic disease in poultry farming. However, there is currently a lack of effective pharmaceutical interventions for treating AFB1.
