Increased activity of sugarcane sucrose‐phosphate synthase in transgenic tomato in response to N‐terminal truncation

Indonesian Journal of Biotechnology, 2022
Sucrose‐phosphate synthase (SPS) is a key enzyme catalyzing the formation of sucrose‐6‐phosphate through the transfer of uridine‐diphosphate glucose (UDP‐G) as a donor to fructose‐6‐phosphate (F6P) as an acceptor. Plant SPS consists of three main domains:

Predictors of glycemic control with imeglimin for type 2 diabetes: Results of machine learning analyses using clinical trial data

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Identifying patient characteristics predictive of treatment response is crucial for optimizing type 2 diabetes outcomes. Using data from three phase 2/3 imeglimin trials in Japan, this analysis applied machine learning to determine characteristics associated with HbA1c improvement.

Increased sugar content impairs pollen fertility and reduces seed-setting in high-photosynthetic-efficiency rice

Crop Journal
Crop yield depends on biomass, which is primarily associated with photosynthesis. We previously demonstrated that two photorespiratory bypasses, i.e., GOC (glycolate oxidase + oxalate oxidase + catalase) and GCGT (glycolate oxidase + catalase ...

Inflammatory niches as spatial drivers of disease mechanisms and targets for personalized treatment

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
This study provides a comprehensive review of how spatial transcriptomics reveals disease‐specific inflammatory niches across multiple skin disorders, highlighting key immune–stromal, neuro–immune and metabolic interactions that were previously unappreciated in non‐spatial analyses. Abstract Disease states are increasingly recognized as being shaped by

Characterization of a bifunctional O- and N-glucosyltransferase from Vitis vinifera in glucosylating phenolic compounds and 3,4-dichloroaniline in Pichia pastoris and Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
2,4,5-Trichlorophenol, 2,6-dimethylphenol, 3-methylcatechol, phenol, hydroquinone, catechol, and 3,4-dichloroaniline are present in the environment and are risky to humans and animals because of their wide applications in many industries.

Engineering of the Flavone Rutinoside Biosynthetic Pathway Enables Production of Diosmin, a Venoactive Compound in Solanum lycopersicum and Nicotiana tabacum

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diosmin is often used as a dietary supplement, and it is sometimes used to make phlebotropic drugs for venous diseases. Traditionally, diosmin is obtained by the dehydrogenation of the flavanone glycoside hesperidin through chemical semisynthesis.

Internalization of Exogenous Myelin by Oligodendroglia Promotes Lineage Progression

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 3, March 2026.
Oligodendroglia internalize extracellular myelin debris in vitro and in vivo. Internalized myelin modulates lipid metabolism and lipid droplet formation. Myelin‐derived signals promote oligodendroglial proliferation and lineage progression. ABSTRACT Oligodendrocytes, traditionally recognized for their role in central nervous system myelination, have ...
