FAM134B Restricts African Swine Fever Virus Capsid Assembly via Reticulophagy and Its Antiviral Activity is Antagonized by the Viral Virulence‐Associated Factor pMGF300‐2R [PDF]
ABSTRACT African swine fever (ASF), caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV), is a devastating viral disease in domestic pigs and wild boar. ASFV is a large DNA virus whose capsid assembly takes place within perinuclear viral factories (VFs). Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that reticulophagy confers antiviral activity against multiple RNA ...

Discovering host-viral protein interactions in autophagy: A LIR discovery pipeline for identifying LC3-interacting region motifs in highly virulent viruses. [PDF]
Hemorrhagic fever virus (HFV) infections are highly fatal, posing a significant global pandemic threat as they continue to emerge in new locations. HFVs and other highly virulent viruses (HVVs), such as Nipah virus, exploit host cell pathways, including ...

The TaCOMT1A‐Synthesised Sakuranetin Is a Novel Biostimulant Enhancing Drought Tolerance and Yield in Wheat [PDF]
ABSTRACT Drought stress is a major limitation to global wheat production. Here, we demonstrate that the wheat gene TaCOMT1A, encoding a caffeic acid O‐methyltransferase, plays a crucial role in enhancing drought tolerance in wheat. Overexpression of TaCOMT1A significantly improved drought tolerance at the seedling stage, as evidenced by higher survival

Reduced task-related quadriceps sEMG and limited functional transfer after 4-week low-load blood flow restriction training: a pilot randomized controlled study [PDF]
BackgroundLow-load blood-flow restriction training (BFR-LIR) can enhance strength-related adaptations with reduced mechanical stress, but whether it promotes task-related neuromuscular economy (lower task-related sEMG amplitude for comparable mechanical ...

Patterns of Autonomous and Conditional Neural Specification for the Brain and Ventral Nerve Cord in Annelida [PDF]
Diagrams of blastomere isolations in Capitella teleta and Platynereis dumerilii showing autonomous head neural tissue (from 1q) and trunk neural tissue (from 2d) as well as a decoupling of D–V axis formation from trunk neural tissue in annelids. ABSTRACT Evolution of central nervous systems is a long‐debated topic.

Protective anti-fibrotic effect of liraglutide and Pirfenidone combination therapy on liver fibrosis in rats: effects on autophagy and NLRP3 inflammasome [PDF]
Background Liver fibrosis is a significant complication of chronic liver diseases. While Pirfenidone (PFD) and Liraglutide (LIR) have shown promise individually in treating fibrosis, their combined effect on autophagy and NLRP3 inflammasome pathways ...

Ameliorative Impact of Liraglutide on Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia-Induced Atrial Remodeling
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most frequent form of clinical cardiac arrhythmias. Previous evidence proved that atrial anatomical remodeling (AAR) and atrial electrical remodeling (AER) are crucial for the progression and maintenance of AF.

Role of SEC62 in ER maintenance: A link with ER stress tolerance in SEC62-overexpressing tumors?
Amplification of the candidate oncogene TLOC1/SEC62 in tumors correlates with reduced patient survival. The recently reported role of SEC62 as an autophagy receptor that controls endoplasmic reticulum (ER) size and function might open new scenarios for ...
