Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

Effect of seed priming with different concentrations of potassium nitrate on the pattern of seed imbibition and germination of rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
Low germination and vigor of rice seed associated with dry-seed broadcasting are common problems encountered by rice growers. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the role of potassium nitrate (KNO3) on the pattern of seed imbibition and to ...

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.

Standardization of Seed Hydro-priming Duration in Bitter Gourd, Momordica Charantia L.

International Journal of Bio-Resource and Stress Management, 2014
Presowing seed priming helps to improve germination and stand establishment. However, before priming the seeds, it is important to establish the safe limits of priming durations.

Polyethylene Glycol Priming Enhances the Seed Germination and Seedling Growth of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi under Salt Stress

Plants
Seed priming has become a practical pre-sowing strategy to deal with abiotic stresses. This study aims to explore the effects of polyethylene glycol (PEG) priming on seed germination and seedling growth of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi under salt stress.

Priming with potassium solutions improves seedling growth and vigor in forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) [PDF]

, 2016
In this study a laboratory experiment was conducted to assess the effect of different potassium priming sources on seedling growth and vigor of sorghum genotypes. Priming with KH2PO4 gave best results for SOG (23.052), RL (19.667) and VI (2,291.9).

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

Effect of Water Seed Priming on Establishment of Direct Seeded Rice in Well Watered Conditions and Aerenchyma Formation Under Varying Water Regimes [PDF]

, 2017
The application of seed hydro-priming as a tool for managing the adverse effect of flooding on seed germination and emergence in rice was studied, along with aerenchyma formation in sections of roots for comparisons between rice subjected to flooded and ...
