Ca2+ mediates transcription factor PuDof2.5 and suppresses stone cell production in pear fruits [PDF]
Stone cells are sclerenchyma cells formed by deposition of lignin, which is the most significant factor limiting the quality of pears. Ca2+ was known to inhibit stone cells in pear fruits, but the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Our study

Effects on stone cell development and lignin deposition in pears by different pollinators [PDF]
IntroductionThe pear pulp is formed by the development of the ovary wall, which is the somatic cell of the female parent, and its genetic traits are identical to those of the female parent, so that its phenotypic traits should also be identical to those ...

Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis reveals the complex molecular mechanisms underlying stone cell formation in Korla pear [PDF]
Korla pear (Pyrus sinkiangensis Yü) is a landrace selected from a hybrid pear species in the Xinjiang Autonomous Region in China. In recent years, pericarp roughening has been one of the major factors that adversely affects fruit quality.

Morphological and Developmental Features of Stone Cells in Eriobotrya Fruits [PDF]
Some members of the Rosaceae family, particularly pear, contain stone cells in their fruits. Although stone cells in pear fruits are well studied, relatively little attention has been given to loquat stone cells.

PbrmiR397a regulates lignification during stone cell development in pear fruit. [PDF]
SummaryLignified stone cells substantially reduce fruit quality. Therefore, it is desirable to inhibit stone cell development using genetic technologies. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating lignification are poorly understood in fruit stone cells.

Clusterin elaborated by renal tubular epithelial cells under high oxalate stress serves as a matrix protein to facilitate kidney stone formation [PDF]
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stone is prevalent while the molecular mechanisms are not yet fully understood. The organic matrix of stones is rich in protein and has been considered to play a important role in stone aggregation and growth.

Genome-wide characterisation of HD-Zip transcription factors and functional analysis of PbHB24 during stone cell formation in Chinese white pear (Pyrus bretschneideri) [PDF]
Background The homodomain-leucine zipper (HD-Zip) is a conserved transcription factor family unique to plants that regulate multiple developmental processes including lignificaion.

Secure Virtual Mobile Small Cells: A Stepping Stone Toward 6G [PDF]
As 5th Generation research reaches the twilight, the research community must go beyond 5G and look towards the 2030 connectivity landscape, namely 6G. In this context, this work takes a step towards the 6G vision by proposing a next generation communication platform, which aims to extend the rigid coverage area of fixed deployment networks by ...
