Flg22-triggered immunity negatively regulates key BR biosynthetic genes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
In plants, activation of growth and activation of immunity are opposing processes that define a trade-off. In the past few years, the growth-promoting hormones brassinosteroids (BR) have emerged as negative regulators of pathogen-associated molecular ...

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

The Polyamine Putrescine Contributes to H2O2 and RbohD/F-Dependent Positive Feedback Loop in Arabidopsis PAMP-Triggered Immunity

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Polyamines are involved in defense against pathogenic microorganisms in plants. However, the role of the polyamine putrescine (Put) during plant defense has remained elusive.

The Arabidopsis Protein Phosphatase PP2C38 Negatively Regulates the Central Immune Kinase BIK1.

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
Plants recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) via cell surface-localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), leading to PRR-triggered immunity (PTI).

Osteoarthritis: An Immuno‐Inflammatory Disease‐Mechanisms of Immune Cell Dysregulation and Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the immuno‐inflammatory mechanisms driving the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA), extending beyond the traditional view of OA as a purely degenerative disease to incorporate immune cell infiltration, inflammatory factor release, and the formation of a chronic low‐grade inflammatory microenvironment.

A DUF3455 domain‐containing protein promotes Ustilaginoidea virens infection and functions as a plant immune elicitor

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
The fungal effector UvDUF1 from Ustilaginoidea virens not only promotes infection but also acts as a plant immunity elicitor, inducing broad‐spectrum disease resistance in rice and Nicotiana benthamiana. These results reveal its potential as a novel target for sustainable crop protection strategies.

Deciphering the soybean root rot pathogen Phytophthora sojae: Signaling pathways, transcriptional regulation, and effector biology

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
This review highlights how Phytophthora sojae utilizes unconventional lineage‐specific signaling networks, including unique G protein‐coupled receptor fusions, expanded kinases, and rapidly evolving effectors, to infect soybeans. Understanding these divergent molecular paradigms reveals critical vulnerabilities in this destructive pathogen, offering ...

The Airway Epithelial Barrier in Childhood Asthma: A Central Player in Glucocorticoid Therapy, Resistance, and Severe Asthma

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Childhood asthma remains a global public health challenge with suboptimal control, despite the availability of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) as first‐line therapy. Glucocorticoids suppress inflammation and protect the airway epithelial barrier (AEB) via genomic and nongenomic pathways.

Quantification of Extracellular Double-stranded RNA Uptake and Subcellular Localization Using Flow Cytometry and Confocal Microscopy

Bio-Protocol, 2018
Double-stranded RNA is a potent pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) produced as a by-product of viral replication and a well-known hallmark of viral infection.

Harnessing Natural Compounds in Psoriasis: Targeting Cellular Pathways for Effective Therapy

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Natural compounds act on key cellular pathways in psoriasis by suppressing keratinocyte hyperproliferation, modulating Th17/IL‐17‐mediated immune responses, and reducing oxidative stress. These multi‐target effects highlight their potential as safer adjunctive therapies alongside conventional treatments.
