Summary Invertase (EC.3.2.1.26), a key enzyme in sucrose breakdown, is crucial for cellulose synthesis. However, the function of the vacuolar invertase (VINV) in woody plants remains unclear. In this study, transgenic lines of Populus trichocarpa Torr. and Gray were generated to investigate the role of PtrVINV2 in wood formation and under high salinity

Through mRNA sequencing, proteomics, and flow cytometry, we identified potential cell surface targets toward tumor‐targeted, activatable photoimmunotherapy (taPIT) in advanced high‐grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSOCs) with low EGFR expression. The reliance on EGFR overexpression has been a major limitation of taPIT, which this study seeks to address ...

Identification of a sodium-bicarbonate symport in human platelets
Intracellular pH (pH(i)) was measured in human platelets using fluorescent probes. Basal pH(i) was higher in HC(O3-)- buffered solutions (7(7.33 +/- 0.01) than in nominally HCO3- free, Hepes buffered solutions (7.16 +/- 0.01, P < 0.05). Addition of EIPA caused to fall in Hepes, but did not inhibit the increase of pH(i) when platelets maintained in ...

Primary hepatocyte transplantation (HTx) is a safe cell therapy for patients with liver disease, but wider application is circumvented by poor cell engraftment due to limitations in hepatocyte quality and transplantation strategies. Hepatocyte-like cells

We identified 156 novel miRNAs through de novo prediction in the newly discovered genomic regions of T2T‐CHM13. These miRNAs target 345 protein‐coding genes that are downregulated in collecting duct renal cell carcinoma (cdRCC). The miRNAs may play a role in the disease by altering several key tumor suppressor pathways and targeting multiple tumor ...

Unilateral breast uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate in a patient with cold nodule of the thyroid
Common causes of unilateral breast uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate are predominant breast-feeding on one side, mastitis, and breast cancer. Uptake of Tc-99m pertechnetate in the epithelial cells of the breast, like that of iodide, depends on the ...

Structure and Mechanism of the Divalent Anion/Na+ Symporter [PDF]
Integral membrane proteins of the divalent anion/Na+ symporter (DASS) family are conserved from bacteria to humans. DASS proteins typically mediate the coupled uptake of Na+ ions and dicarboxylate, tricarboxylate, or sulfate. Since the substrates for DASS include key intermediates and regulators of energy metabolism, alterations of DASS function ...

Role of Glutamate Excitotoxicity in Glioblastoma Growth and Its Implications in Treatment
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma is a highly malignant and invasive type of primary brain tumor that originates from astrocytes. Glutamate, a neurotransmitter in the brain plays a crucial role in excitotoxic cell death. Excessive glutamate triggers a pathological process known as glutamate excitotoxicity, leading to neuronal damage.

Astrocytes Mediate Psychostimulant‐Induced Alterations of Spike‐Timing Dependent Synaptic Plasticity
Main Points Cocaine and amphetamine stimulates astrocytes and downregulates the GLT‐1. The dysfunction in GLT‐1 modify EPSP kinetics and modulate STDP, switching LTP to LTD in psychostimulant‐treated mice. These effects were restored by upregulation of GLT‐1.

ABSTRACT Despite a high sucrose accumulation in its taproot vacuoles, sugar beet (Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris) is sensitive to freezing. Earlier, a taproot‐specific accumulation of raffinose was shown to have beneficial effects on the freezing tolerance of the plant.
