Drought severely affects crop yield and yield stability. Maize and sorghum are major crops in Africa and globally, and both are negatively impacted by drought. However, sorghum has a better ability to withstand drought than maize.

Changes in morphology, proline content, and palatability to Helix aspersa, in Plantago lanceolata in response to transplantation and polluted soil [PDF]
High concentrations of heavy metals are a cause of stress in plants, many of which respond by accumulating high levels of the amino acid proline. Tolerant and intolerant plants may vary in their response, and this may be reflected in the palatability of ...

Solvent and thermal stability, and pH kinetics, of proline-specific dipeptidyl peptidase IV-like enzyme from bovine serum [PDF]
Proline-specific dipeptidyl peptidase-like (DPP IV; EC 3.4.14.5) activity in bovine serum has attracted little attention despite its ready availability and the paucity of useful proline-cleaving enzymes.

In nephroblastoma, aberrant glycolysis drives lactate accumulation, which elevates histone H3K18 lactylation via p300. Lactylation of the PSRC1 promoter activates its transcription. PSRC1 competitively binds AKT, relieving PTEN‐mediated inhibition and triggering AKT/mTOR/HIF‐1α signaling.

Drought Stress Mediated Changes in Food Crops: Mechanisms and Remediation Strategies
This work presents a multi‐scale framework for flavonoid‐mediated drought tolerance in staple food crops, integrating ROS redox regulation, antioxidant defense, rhizosphere microbial interactions, and sustainable agronomic practices. This interdisciplinary model provides core insights to develop climate‐resilient cropping systems and enhance global ...

Hyperprolinemia type I caused by homozygous p.T466M mutation in PRODH
Hyperprolinemia type I (HPI) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by defects in proline oxidase. We herein describe a case of a patient with HPI and harboring the NM_016335.4 (PRODH_v001):c.1397 C > T (p.T466M) mutation and polymorphisms ...

Cytotoxic Effects of Medicinal Plant Extracts on HeLa Cells via Redox Imbalance, L-Arginine Metabolic Reprogramming, and Glycolytic Suppression. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cancer cells undergo metabolic reprogramming to sustain proliferation, resist apoptosis, and adapt to oxidative stress. In the present study, we comparatively evaluated the anticancer effects of four medicinal plant extracts (Inula helenium, Hypericum alpestre, Rumex obtusifolius, and Alchemilla smirnovii) on HeLa cervical cancer cells, with ...

Proline Oxidase Promotes Tumor Cell Survival in Hypoxic Tumor Microenvironments [PDF]
Abstract Proline is a readily released stress substrate that can be metabolized by proline oxidase (POX) to generate either reactive oxygen species (ROS) to induce apoptosis or autophagy or ATP during times of nutrient stress. However, the contribution of proline metabolism to tumorigenesis in hypoxic microenvironments has not been ...

The GPX3‐VCAM1 Axis Gates Pro‐Fibrotic Tubule Cell Fate in Hyperuricemic Nephropathy
Hyperuricemia induces NLRP3 inflammasome signaling activation and downregulation of GPX3 in proximal tubular epithelial cells, leading to oxidative stress–driven VCAM1 upregulation, emergence of pro‐fibrotic proximal tubule cells, macrophage recruitment, and renal fibrosis.
