From stress to growth dominance: hormonal switches, energy sensing, and the concept of Regulatory Agronomy in plants

Plant Hormones
Plants face a fundamental allocation trade-off between growth and defense. Classical models centered on salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid/ethylene (JA/ET), and abscisic acid (ABA) accurately describe stress responses but do not fully explain the ...

Peptide hormones in plants

Molecular Horticulture
Abstract Peptide hormones are defined as small secreted polypeptide-based intercellular communication signal molecules. Such peptide hormones are encoded by nuclear genes, and often go through proteolytic processing of preproproteins and post-translational modifications.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Advances in zinc finger proteins-mediated regulation of plant hormone signaling in postharvest quality maintenance of fruits and vegetables

Plant Hormones
Zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) play a crucial role in regulating hormone response in plants. ZFPs precisely regulate hormone-responsive genes through specific DNA binding or protein–protein interactions, mediating signal transduction pathways of key ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Tocochromanols - plant hormones crosstalk

Plant Hormones
Tocochromanols, the group of compounds with vitamin E activity, are lipid-soluble antioxidants synthesized by photosynthetic organisms. Their biosynthesis is restricted to plastids, while their action sites are in different cellular compartments (i.e ...

Recent developments and emerging trends of mass spectrometric methods in plant hormone analysis: a review

Plant Methods, 2020
Plant hormones are naturally occurring small molecule compounds which are present at trace amounts in plant. They play a pivotal role in the regulation of plant growth.

The microbiome in human skin aging

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.
