The Mitochondrial Protein RESISTANCE to APHIDS 9 Interacts with S40 to Resist Aphid Infestation by Modulating Reactive Oxygen Species Homeostasis in Maize (Zea mays)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the mitochondrial protein RTA9, a member of the Domain of Unknown Function 641 family, together with its partner S40, as key regulators of aphid resistance in maize. RTA9 promotes S40 degradation and modulates reactive oxygen species accumulation.

Exogenous hydrogen sulfide increased Nicotiana tabacum L. resistance against drought by the improved photosynthesis and antioxidant system

Scientific Reports
Drought stress is an abiotic stressor that impacts photosynthesis, plant growth, and development, leading to decreased crop yields. Sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), an exogenous additive, has demonstrated potential regulatory effects on plant responses to ...

The United States\u27 Engagement in Global Tobacco Control: Proposals for Comprehensive Funding and Strategies [PDF]

, 2010
Tobacco use kills more people annually than HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria combined. Unless action is taken, tobacco-related diseases will kill hundreds of millions more in coming decades, mostly in low- and middle-income countries.

ZFPL1 Promotes Colorectal Cancer Progression by Stabilizing ASS1 to Drive the Urea Cycle and M2 Macrophage‐Mediated Metastatic Colonization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ScRNA‐seq reveals ZFPL1‐specific enrichment in malignant CRC cells. Mechanistically, ZFPL1 stabilizes ASS1 by blocking K57 ubiquitination, activating urea cycle metabolism to drive progression. ZFPL1 inhibition reprograms the TME by suppressing M2 macrophages polarization and promotion M1 macrophages, thereby inhibiting CRC liver metastasis ...

Vertical differences in carbon metabolic diversity and dominant flora of soil bacterial communities in farmlands

Scientific Reports
The carbon cycle in soil is significantly influenced by soil microbes. To investigate the vertical distribution of the dominant groups in agricultural soil and the carbon metabolic diversity of soil bacteria, 45 soil samples from the 0 ~ 50 cm soil layer

A Unique Chimeric RNA: ERCC1‐iASPP Drives Benzo[a]pyrene‐Induced Lung Carcinogenesis via Dual Coding and Non‐Coding Mechanisms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The chimeric RNA ERCC1‐iASPP possesses dual coding and non‐coding functions, synergistically accelerating the process of cellular malignant transformation. Abstract Genetic variation at 19q13.3 critically modulates chemical carcinogen‐induced lung carcinogenesis, particularly in mediating the activity of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P), a major polycyclic ...
