Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

Diurnal Variations in Photochemical Energy Utilization and Osmotic Adjustments in Black Poplar Leaves Under Progressive Water Stress

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought limits the productivity of fast‐growing woody crops, although the metabolic adjustments conferring water stress tolerance remain poorly understood. We investigated the responses of Populus nigra seedlings to water stress by integrating daily physiological measurements and NMR metabolomic analyses.

Novel Amino Acid Changes Increase Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase Output in planta

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Characterization of previously reported Arabidopsis mutants with increased aluminum (Al) resistance (alr) resulting from greater release of Al‐chelating malate identified three unique amino acid substitutions that each impacts PHOSPHOENOLPYRUVATE CARBOXYLASE 1, a key anaplerotic carbon fixation enzyme.

Rhizobial Symbiosis Enhances Salinity Tolerance in Legumes Through Coordinated Physiological and Molecular Responses: Evidence From Common Vetch and Pea

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinisation severely constrains crop production. Legumes rely on rhizobial symbiosis for sustainable nitrogen acquisition. Although salinity is known to impair nodulation and nitrogen fixation, how symbiosis influences plant tolerance to salt stress remains unclear.

Transcript correlation analysis for the identification of novel plant genes involved in iron metabolism and beyond: what next?

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Transcript correlation analysis allowed the identification of several key nodes in the complex regulatory network of plant iron metabolism. Abstract Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, almost a quarter of a century ago, thanks to The Arabidopsis Genome Initiative, with contributions from scientists worldwide.

Hypoxia and hypercapnia elicit overlapping but distinct skeletal muscle toxicities

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Hypoxia and hypercapnia cause overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes, including atrophy, change in myofibre metabolic profile and myogenic response to injury. Both signals operate via distinct cellular pathways. Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction is strongly associated with elevated mortality in acute and chronic pulmonary ...

Post‐exercise ketone supplementation improves endurance performance and mitochondrial adaptations during an 8‐week endurance training intervention

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐eight trained males completed 8 weeks of supervised indoor cycling training, receiving post‐exercise and pre‐sleep ketone monoester (KE, n = 14) or isocaloric placebo (CON, n = 14). Both groups improved 30 min time‐trial performance with training, but KE achieved a 4% higher power output than CON at the end of the training

Calcium, methyl jasmonate and their combined foliar applications: Influence on Tempranillo grape amino acids composition over two seasons

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 12, Page 7380-7396, September 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change is currently affecting chemical grape composition and, consequently, grape quality. The foliar application of biostimulants has emerged as a promising approach to mitigate these effects. This study investigated the effects of foliar applications of calcium (Ca), methyl jasmonate (MeJ), and their combination (Ca + MeJ)
