Microbial colonization in the plant rhizosphere can endow the host with various biological functions. For example, nitrogen-fixing rhizobia can form symbiotic nodules to provide a nitrogen source for the growth of leguminous hosts, which represents the highest level of mutual benefit between host plant...
Aging impacts diseases and lifespan. With current knowledge of stem cells, it is feasible to design and test interventions that delay aging and improve both health and lifespan. Stem cells, together with anti-aging genes such as Klotho, play a crucial ro
Hib meningitis had mostly disappeared in the United States because of the development, production, and distribution of a vaccine. This achievement highlighted the power of a safe and effective vaccine. However, even before the Hib
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have been extensively used in preclinical and clinical trials for treating various diseases. However, the differences between ADSCs from lean individuals (L-ADSCs) and those from obese individuals (O-ADSCs) have not bee
As bypass signaling is a common form of resistance to kinase inhibitors, we sought to identify potential kinases that are activated in ASK120067-resistant cells. We performed a human phospho-RTK array and compared the differential expression of 71 tyrosine kinases in parental and resistant NCI-H197...
Matthieu Tachon has been promoting the traditional art form of Tai Chi in his French community for a long time. An orthopaedist by day, Matthieu started his practice in the late fall of 2015 right after his first visit to the birth place of Tai Chi in Chenjiagou, China. World record ...
(inDNA). In contrast, the term eDNA is chiefly used to determine exDNA found in environmental samples such as sand, soil, or water. cfDNA and exDNA are often used interchangeably to describe any form of DNA found in the interstitial space, circulation, or body fluids. This includes ...
FFA sequestration in the dodecane layer alleviated the inhibitory effect of FFAs on cell growth, further elevating the FFA productivity of the cells. Multiple biosynthetic steps are illustrated by a series of connecting arrows, whereas a putative LPL acyltransferase activity of PlsC, which may form ...
Teliospores are primarily 2-celled with each cell containing two haploid nuclei that have paired, if not fused to form the diploid state [8]. They often appear in low numbers on the lower parts of the plant, including the stem. Under the proper conditions, the teliospore germinates and a...
Cotton boll shedding is one of the main factors adversely affecting the cotton yield. During the cotton plant growth period, low light conditions can cause cotton bolls to fall off prematurely. In this study, we clarified the regulatory effects of low li
