Flora, life form and chorological study of soil seed bank in Sisangan box tree (Buxus hyrcanus Pojark) Forest Reserve [PDF]
Zīst/shināsī-i Giyāhī-i Īrān, 2014 The present study involves the soil seed bank flora of the Sisangan Box tree (Buxus hyrcanus Pojark) reserve by using seedling emergence method. 150 soil samples were collected during late June and early November by hammering a hollow metal frame 400 cm2

Maintenance of wetland plant communities: the role of the seed bank in regeneration of native plants
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2021 Exotic grasses have been introduced into wetlands and can compete with native plants due to their high tolerance of flood and dry periods. Flooding can facilitate seed dispersal of exotic species and reduce the diversity of native species.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Seed dormancy cycling and the regulation of dormancy mechanisms to time germination in variable field environments [PDF]
, 2017 Many molecular mechanisms that regulate dormancy have been identified individually in controlled laboratory studies. However, little is known about how the seed employs this complex suite of mechanisms during dormancy cycling in the variable environment ...

Therapeutic strategies for MMAE‐resistant bladder cancer through DPP4 inhibition
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We established monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE)‐resistant bladder cancer (BC) cell lines by exposure to progressively increasing concentrations of MMAE in vitro. RNA sequencing showed DPP4 expression was increased in MMAE‐resistant BC cells. Both si‐DPP4 and the DPP4 inhibitor sitagliptin suppressed the viability of MMAE‐resistant BC cells.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

How are seed banks and seed rain affected after 30 years of exotic grass cultivation?
RodriguésiaThe conversion of different forest formations into pastures with exotic grasses leads to irreversible damage over time. However, the dispersal of diaspores from adjacent areas and the formation of seed banks can influence regeneration processes.
