Proteomic and Phosphoproteomic Analyses during Plant Regeneration Initiation in Cotton ( L.).

Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is a biotechnological tool used to generate new individuals and is the preferred method for rapid plant regeneration. However, the molecular basis underlying somatic cell regeneration through SE is not yet fully understood, particularly regarding interactions between the proteome and post-translational modifications. Here, we performed association analysis of high-throughput proteomics and phosphoproteomics in three representative samples (non-embryogenic calli, NEC; primary embryogenic calli, PEC; globular embryos, GE) during the initiation of plant regeneration in cotton, a pioneer crop for genetic biotechnology applications.

An antifouling supramolecular polymer ophthalmic ointment alleviates symblepharon in rat alkali burn eyes.

Symblepharon is an adverse ocular disease resulting in ocular discomfort and impaired vision, severely dragging down a patient's quality of life. Due to the specificity of the ocular surface, the retention time of drugs on it is short, leading to limited therapeutic effects for ocular diseases. Therefore, it is imperative to design a novel drug delivery system, which can not only prolong the retention time of a drug but also play an anti-fibrosis role in symblepharon.

Stratified Treatment in Pediatric Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma: Result of a Prospective Open-Label Multiple-Institution Study.

Materials And Methods: On the basis of the non-Hodgkin's lymphoma Berlin-Frankfurt-Munster 95 (NHL-BFM-95) protocol, patients with minimal disseminated disease (MDD), high-risk tumor site (multiple bone, skin, liver, and lung involvement), and small cell/lymphohistiocytic (SC/LH) pathological subtype were enrolled in risk stratification.

Macrophages communicate with mesangial cells through the CXCL12/DPP4 axis in lupus nephritis pathogenesis.

Lupus nephritis (LN) occurs in 50% of cases of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is one of the most serious complications that can occur during lupus progression. Mesangial cells (MCs) are intrinsic cells in the kidney that can regulate capillary blood flow, phagocytose apoptotic cells, and secrete vasoactive substances and growth factors. Previous studies have shown that various types of inflammatory cells can activate MCs for hyperproliferation, leading to disruption of the filtration barrier and impairment of renal function in LN.

Organelle Ca/CAM1-SELTP confers somatic cell embryogenic competence acquisition and transformation in plant regeneration.

Somatic cell totipotency in plant regeneration represents the forefront of the compelling scientific puzzles and one of the most challenging problems in biology. How somatic embryogenic competence is achieved in regeneration remains elusive. Here, we discover uncharacterized organelle-based embryogenic differentiation processes of intracellular acquisition and intercellular transformation, and demonstrate the underlying regulatory system of somatic embryogenesis-associated lipid transfer protein (SELTP) and its interactor calmodulin1 (CAM1) in cotton as the pioneer crop for biotechnology application.

Vitreous Olink proteomics reveals inflammatory biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of traumatic proliferative vitreoretinopathy.

Background: The aim of this study was to identify inflammatory biomarkers in traumatic proliferative vitreoretinopathy (TPVR) patients and further validate the expression curve of particular biomarkers in the rabbit TPVR model.

Implementing a transformative approach to the coral reefs' recovery phase.

Mitigation and rehabilitation are responses to climate change and human misuse. However, many regions worldwide still lose coral reefs even after implementing these responses. We chose Hurghada city, on the Red Sea, and Weizhou island, on the South China Sea, as sample regions to assess their various modes of coral community structure loss against the combined climatic and human impact drivers that led to this shift.

Projected harmful algal bloom frequency in the Yangtze River Estuary and adjacent waters.

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a frequent occurrence in China's offshore waters due to climate change and human activity, particularly in the Yangtze River Estuary and adjacent waters. Here, we studied HABs and their relationship with climatic and environmental factors in these waters from 1979 to 2016 using historical observations and reanalysis data. We then projected HABs frequency under various climate scenarios using the "environmental impact factor-frequency of HABs" mathematical model built using the BP neural network method and CIMP5 model data (RCP 2.

EcoliGD: An Online Tool for Designing Genome.

Synthetic biology is an important interdisciplinary field that has emerged in this century, focusing on the rewriting and reprogramming of DNA through the cycles of "design-edit", and so, the cell's own operating system, its genome, is naturally coming into focus. Here, we propose EcoliGD, an online genome design tool with a visual interactive interface and the function of browsing information, as well as the ability to perform insertion, exchange, deletion, and codon replacement operations on the genome and display the results in real-time. Users can utilize EcoliGD to check various functional characteristic about genes, to help them build their genomes.

T-G-A Deficiency Pattern in Protein-Coding Genes and Its Potential Reason.

If a stop codon appears within one gene, then its translation will be terminated earlier than expected. False folding of premature protein will be adverse to the host; hence, all functional genes would tend to avoid the intragenic stop codons. Therefore, we hypothesize that there will be less frequency of nucleotides corresponding to stop codons at each codon position of genes.
