The 3D genome of Gigaspora margarita unveils stable chromatin and nucleolar organization and symbiont‐dependent genome dynamics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread plant symbionts that enhance nutrient acquisition and influence ecosystem productivity. Previous chromosome‐level assemblies of the model species Rhizophagus irregularis revealed a two‐compartment genome architecture (active A and repressed B chromatin compartments), yet its conservation across ...

Assessment of global long interspersed nucleotide element‐1 ( LINE ‐1) DNA methylation in a longitudinal cohort of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2 DM ) individuals

open access: yesInternational Journal of Clinical Practice, 2018
Recent studies have indicated that methylation of the LINE-1 elements is associated with an increased risk of worsening carbohydrate metabolism. It has been shown that overall DNA methylation of LINE-1 elements could be considered as a risk factor for T2DM and its complications, independent of other established risk factors.A total of 794 T2DM ...

Chromosome‐Scale Haplotype Genome Assemblies for the Australian Mango ‘Kensington Pride’ and a Wild Relative, Mangifera laurina, Provide Insights Into Anthracnose‐Resistance and Volatile Compound Biosynthesis Genes

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mango (Mangifera indica) is one of the most popular fruits cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The availability of reference genomes helps to identify the genetic basis of important traits. Here, we report assembled high‐quality chromosome‐level genomes for the Australian mango cultivar ‘Kensington Pride’ and M ...

Involvement of retrotransposition of long interspersed nucleotide element‐1 in skin tumorigenesis induced by 7,12‐dimethylbenz[a]anthracene and 12‐O‐tetradecanoylphorbol‐13‐acetate

open access: yesCancer Science, 2011
Tumor development induced by 7,12‐dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) plus 12‐O‐tetradecanoylphorbol‐13‐acetate (TPA) is a well‐characterized model of multistep carcinogenesis. DMBA mutates the Ha‐ras gene, whereas TPA promotes the growth of transformed cells by activating cellular signaling molecules. It remains to be clarified how repeated TPA treatment

A Natural LTR Retrotransposon Insertion in the Promoter of GhNAC140‐Dt Boosts Cotton Lint Yield

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transposable elements (TEs) are fundamental drivers of crop evolution and domestication. Whereas the underlying mechanisms of TE‐mediated gene activation remain poorly understood. Lint percentage is an important yield component in cotton. Here, we report a retrotransposon insertion in the promoter of GhNAC140‐Dt, a secondary wall NAC encoding ...

Human‐derived cardiac‐neural microtissues reveal catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is also a disease of the sympathetic neuron

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic diagram illustrating the proposed pathway in which regulatory defects might occur in sympathetic neurons derived from hiPSC in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Specifically, enhanced calcium transients appeared to derive from three sources: enhanced membrane excitability (due to loss of ...

Phylogenetic Analyses of True Ladybirds (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae: Coccinellini) Reveal Directionality in Diet Evolution and Support a Boreotropical Origin of the Tribe

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
A newly generated large‐scale molecular phylogeny of true ladybirds (Coccinellini) clarifies their evolutionary relationships and supports a boreotropical origin in the Paleocene, with multiple independent southward dispersals. Ancestral diet reconstructions suggest an initial specialization on aphids, followed by expansions in host range and ...

Axon Initial Segment: Structure, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
The axon initial segment (AIS) is a specialized axonal domain critical for maintaining neuronal polarity, action potential initiation, and network stability. This review summarizes the necessary elements for maintaining AIS structure and plasticity, discussing crucial biological functions of AIS in neuronal signaling and the neural circuit homeostasis,

Additional file 6: Figure S3. of Prognostic and predictive significance of long interspersed nucleotide element-1 methylation in advanced-stage colorectal cancer

open access: yes, 2016
Influence of clinical and histopathological parameters and of tumor LINE-1 methylation levels on the OS of patients was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Levels of tumor LINE-1 methylation were classified as high or low based on the cutoff value (51.7%) determined by the ROC curve (Fig. 3a). (PPTX 664 kb)
