Puerarin Targets MIC19 to Suppress Mitochondrial Metabolism of Tumor-Infiltrating Tregs and Enhance Anti-tumor Immunity. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Puerarin targets mitochondrial MIC19 in tumor‐infiltrating Tregs, impairing their immunosuppressive function and enhancing antitumor immunity. This study uncovers the metabolic dependency of tumor‐infiltrating Tregs and highlights a potential metabolic‐targeted immunotherapeutic strategy for liver cancer. Abstract Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are pivotal

Shrub-facilitated invasion accelerates desertification. [PDF]

Ecol Appl
Abstract In theory, increasing sensitivity of primary productivity to precipitation variability is a biophysical symptom of dryland degradation, or “desertification,” but empirical tests of this in the context of biological invasions are scant. To test the potential for exotic grass invasion to exacerbate biophysical symptoms of desertification, we ...

Novel Necropsy Findings Linked to Peracute Underwater Entrapment in Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus)

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Peracute underwater entrapment (PUE) is a recognized cause of death associated with anthropogenic trauma in marine mammals. We describe internal lesions likely resulting from extreme agonal exertion in bottlenose dolphins due to entanglement and forced ...

Ameliorated biomechanical properties of carotid arteries by puerarin in spontaneously hypertensive rats

BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies, 2021
Background An emerging body of evidence indicates that puerarin (PUE) plays an important role in the treatment of angina pectoris, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases, but how PUE affects the vascular ...

Shoot yield drives phosphorus use efficiency in Brassica oleracea and correlates with root architecture traits [PDF]

, 2009
The environmental and financial costs of using inorganic phosphate fertilizers to maintain crop yield and quality are high. Breeding crops that acquire and use phosphorus (P) more efficiently could reduce these costs.

Puerarin inhibited oxidative stress and alleviated cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury through PI3K/Akt/Nrf2 signaling pathway

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: Puerarin (PUE) is a natural compound isolated from Puerariae Lobatae Radix, which has a neuroprotective effect on IS. We explored the therapeutic effect and underlying mechanism of PUE on cerebral I/R injury by inhibiting oxidative stress ...

Generation mean analysis of phosphorus-use efficiency in freely nodulating soybean crosses grown in low-phosphorus soil [PDF]

, 2017
Article purchasedFreely nodulating soybean genotypes vary in their phosphorus (P) uptake and P-use efficiency (PUE) in low-P soils. Understanding the genetic basis of these genotypes’ performance is essential for effective breeding.
