Toward Plant Single Cell Type Systems Biology [PDF]
The molecular responses of a plant to a stress and the molecular profiles of plant organs during their development and differentiation are the reflection of the contribution from different cell types composing the plant and the organs. Hence, a major limitation to understanding plant cellular and molecular responses in different cells is the ...

Macroscopic Quantum-Type Potentials in Theoretical Systems Biology [PDF]
We review in this paper the use of the theory of scale relativity and fractal space-time as a tool particularly well adapted to the possible development of a future genuine systems theoretical biology.

The integrative biology of type 2 diabetes [PDF]
Obesity and type 2 diabetes are the most frequent metabolic disorders, but their causes remain largely unclear. Insulin resistance, the common underlying abnormality, results from imbalance between energy intake and expenditure favouring nutrient-storage pathways, which evolved to maximize energy utilization and preserve adequate substrate supply to ...

Guarding the frontiers: the biology of type III interferons [PDF]
Type III interferons (IFNs) or IFN-λs regulate a similar set of genes as type I IFNs, but whereas type I IFNs act globally, IFN-λs primarily target mucosal epithelial cells and protect them against the frequent viral attacks that are typical for barrier ...

Sex differences in neutrophil biology modulate response to type I interferons and immunometabolism [PDF]
Significance Despite clear differences in female and male immunity that may contribute to variations in response to infections and predisposition to cancer and autoimmunity, the exact mechanisms that drive this stark contrast remain insufficiently ...

m6A mRNA Methylation Regulates Human β-Cell Biology in Physiological States and in Type 2 Diabetes [PDF]
The regulation of islet cell biology is critical for glucose homeostasis1. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal messenger RNA (mRNA) modification in mammals2. Here, we report that the m6A landscape segregates human type 2 diabetes (T2D)

The structural and molecular biology of type III galactosemia [PDF]
Type III galactosemia is a genetic disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding UDP-galactose 4-epimerase. A variety of different point mutations located throughout the gene can be responsible. The main, disease-causing effects of these mutations appear to be a reduction in the catalytic rate constant (kcat) and an increase in the proteolytic ...

Human T Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1): Molecular Biology and Oncogenesis [PDF]
Human T lymphotropic viruses (HTLVs) are complex deltaretroviruses that do not contain a proto-oncogene in their genome, yet are capable of transforming primary T lymphocytes both in vitro and in vivo.
