N-acetylglucosamine induces white to opaque switching, a mating prerequisite in Candida albicans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
To mate, the fungal pathogen Candida albicans must undergo homozygosis at the mating-type locus and then switch from the white to opaque phenotype. Paradoxically, opaque cells were found to be unstable at physiological temperature, suggesting that mating

Stealthy Opaque Predicates in Hardware - Obfuscating Constant Expressions at Negligible Overhead

open access: yesTransactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems, 2018
Opaque predicates are a well-established fundamental building block for software obfuscation. Simplified, an opaque predicate implements an expression that provides constant Boolean output, but appears to have dynamic behavior for static analysis.

Morphosemantic activation of opaque Chinese words in sentence comprehension.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Two cross-modal priming experiments were conducted to investigate morphological processing in Chinese spoken word recognition during sentence comprehension. Participants heard sentences that contained opaque prime words and performed lexical decisions on

Breeding quality protein maize (Zea mays): Genetic and analytical perspective

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022
Maize is one of the prominent cereal crops locally as well as internationally for both biological and industrial processing. The nutritional value of maize grains is graded to be poor due to limiting essential amino acids mainly lysine and tryptophan.

Dry-milled flour rice ‘Seolgaeng’ harbors a mutated fructose-6-phosphate 2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase2

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
‘Seolgaeng’, an opaque-endosperm rice (Oryza sativa) mutant, is used to prepare high-quality dry-milled rice flour. The mutation causing its opaque-endosperm phenotype was unknown.

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

A Maize Ribosome-Inactivating Protein Is Controlled by the Transcriptional Activator Opaque-2 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 1992
Although synthesis of the cytosolic maize albumin b-32 had been shown to be controlled by the Opaque-2 regulatory locus, its function was unknown. We show here that b-32 is a member of the large and widely distributed class of toxic plant proteins with ribosome-inactivating activity.

Risk Prediction Models for Recurrence After Curative Treatment of Early‐Stage or Locally Advanced Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This systematic review synthesizes prognostic models for survival and recurrence in resected non‐small cell lung cancer. While many models demonstrate moderate to good discrimination, few are externally validated and reporting quality is variable, limiting clinical applicability and highlighting the need for robust, transparent model development ...

Comprehensive Assessment of Arterial, Tissue, and Venous Collaterals for Evaluating the Infarct Growth Rate: The Multimodal Collateral Score

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Collaterals are crucial factors that influence the infarct growth rate (IGR). We aimed to determine whether a comprehensive multimodal collateral score (MCS), incorporating collateral assessment at the arterial, tissue, and venous levels, is associated with functional independence and provides incremental prognostic value over ...

Interlocking transcriptional feedback loops control white-opaque switching in Candida albicans.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2007
The human pathogen Candida albicans can assume either of two distinct cell types, designated "white" and "opaque." Each cell type is maintained for many generations; switching between them is rare and stochastic, and occurs without any known changes in ...
