SBP-Box Transcription Factor JcSPL9 Regulates Both Seed Yield and Oil Content in the Biofuel Plant Jatropha curcas. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Jatropha curcas is a promising feedstock for biodiesel and bio‐jet fuels production; however, its seed yield is constrained by limited inflorescences. SPL9 is a member of the SBP‐box gene family that promotes the juvenile‐to‐adult phase transition.

Comparing Pediatric Dermatology Research Funded by the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) With the US Skin Disease Burden in Patients Under 20 Years Old. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Disease burden, measured by disability‐adjusted life years (DALYs), is a helpful metric to guide research funding priorities. Pediatric dermatologic conditions significantly contribute to DALYs, yet it is unclear whether NIH funding reflects this burden.

DYRK1A inhibitors leucettines and TGF-β inhibitor additively stimulate insulin production in beta cells, organoids, and isolated mouse islets. [PDF]
The decreased β-cell mass and impaired β-cell functionality are the primary causes of diabetes mellitus (DM). Nevertheless, the underlying molecular mechanisms by which β-cell growth and function are controlled are not fully understood.

A genetic transformation system for the heterotrophic diatom Nitzschia putrida (Bacillariophyceae). [PDF]
Abstract Diatoms are important primary producers in aquatic ecosystems. Most of them are photoautotrophs and have evolved to thrive under diverse environmental conditions from the poles to the tropics. However, some diatom species such as Nitzschia putrida have lost photosynthesis and have therefore become free‐living secondary heterotrophs.
