MCTP controls nucleocytoplasmic partitioning of AUXIN RESPONSE FACTORs during lateral root development.

The plant hormone auxin orchestrates almost all aspects of plant growth and development. AUXIN RESPONSE FACTORs (ARFs) control the transcription of auxin-responsive genes, forming cytoplasmic condensates to modulate auxin sensitivity and diversify auxin response regulation. However, the dynamic control of ARF distribution across different subcellular compartments remains largely obscure.

Potato: from functional genomics to genetic improvement.

Potato is the most widely grown non-grain crop and ranks as the third most significant global food crop following rice and wheat. Despite its long history of cultivation over vast areas, slow breeding progress and environmental stress have led to a scarcity of high-yielding potato varieties. Enhancing the quality and yield of potato tubers remains the ultimate objective of potato breeding.

CHRONOS-4: phase 3 study of copanlisib plus rituximab-based immunochemotherapy in relapsed indolent B-cell lymphoma.

Copanlisib, a pan-class I phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor with predominant activity against the α and δ isoforms, previously demonstrated durable responses as monotherapy and improved progression-free survival (PFS) in combination with rituximab in patients with relapsed indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL). CHRONOS-4 was a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the efficacy and safety of copanlisib in combination with standard immunochemotherapy in patients with relapsed iNHL. Patients (n = 524) were randomized (1:1) to copanlisib (60 mg IV) plus immunochemotherapy (rituximab and bendamustine [R-B] or placebo plus R-B).

Casein kinase 1 AELs promote senescence by enhancing ethylene biosynthesis through phosphorylating WRKY22 transcription factor.

Leaf senescence is a complex process regulated by developmental and environmental factors, and plays a pivotal role in the development and life cycle of higher plants. Casein kinase 1 (CK1) is a highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinase in eukaryotes and functions in various cellular processes including cell proliferation, light signaling and hormone effects of plants. However, the biological function of CK1 in plant senescence remains unclear.

Protective Effects of Murray against Acute Alcoholic Liver Disease in Mice via the Nrf2/HO-1/NF-κB Signaling Pathway.

Acute alcoholic liver disease (ALD) resulting from short-term heavy alcohol consumption has become a global health concern. Moreover, anthocyanins have attracted much attention for their ability to prevent oxidation and inflammation. The present work evaluates the protective effects of Murray (LRM) against ALD and explores the possible underlying mechanism involved.

Anthocyanins from Murray Mitigate Cadmium-Induced Oxidative Stress and Testicular Toxicity by Activating the Keap1/Nrf2 Signaling Pathway.

Glycyrrhetinic Acid Receptor-Mediated Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 Loaded Doxorubicin as a Nanotherapeutic System for Liver Cancer Treatment.

In this study, we designed and developed a DOX nanodrug delivery system (PEG-GA@ZIF-8@DOX) using ZIF-8 as the carrier and glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) as the targeting ligand. We confirmed that DOX was loaded and PEG-GA was successfully modified on the surface of the nanoparticles. The in vitro release profile of the system was investigated at pH 5.

Zanubrutinib-lenalidomide-rituximab (ZR) in unfit diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: efficient and tolerant.

The objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness and safety of zanubrutinib, rituximab, and lenalidomide (ZR) in unfit patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Thrombosis or bleeding risk of ZR regimen, especially when antiplatelet agents were co-prescribed, was also evaluated. We retrospectively reviewed unfit newly diagnosed (ND) and refractory or relapsed (R/R) patients with DLBCL who were administered with ZR regimen in two medical centers between December 2019 and February 2022.

Vacuolar H-ATPase and BZR1 form a feedback loop to regulate the homeostasis of BR signaling in Arabidopsis.

Brassinosteroid (BR) is a vital plant hormone that regulates plant growth and development. BRASSINAZOLE RESISTANT 1 (BZR1) is a key transcription factor in BR signaling, and its nucleocytoplasmic localization is crucial for BR signaling. However, the mechanisms that regulate BZR1 nucleocytoplasmic distribution and thus the homeostasis of BR signaling remain largely unclear.

Coordination of growth and drought responses by GA-ABA signaling in rice.

The drought caused by global warming seriously affects the crop growth and agricultural production. Plants have evolved distinct strategies to cope with the drought environment. Under drought stress, energy and resources should be diverted from growth toward stress management.

Data-independent acquisition-based global phosphoproteomics reveal the diverse roles of casein kinase 1 in plant development.

Casein kinase 1 (CK1) is serine/threonine protein kinase highly conserved among eukaryotes, and regulates multiple developmental and signaling events through phosphorylation of target proteins. Arabidopsis early flowering 1 (EL1)-like (AELs) are plant-specific CK1s with varied functions, but identification and validation of their substrates is a major bottleneck in elucidating their physiological roles. Here, we conducted a quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis in data-independent acquisition mode to systematically identify CK1 substrates.

Increased serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor levels in dermatomyositis are associated with Th17/Treg immune imbalance.

Dermatomyositis (DM) represents a multifaceted chronic inflammatory myopathy, primarily manifesting as progressive deterioration of muscular and cutaneous tissues. Despite an incomplete comprehension of DM's etiology and pathogenesis, current evidence implicates the involvement of T lymphocyte infiltration, extensive cytokine release, myositis-specific antibodies, and myositis-associated antibodies in disease development. Serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) frequently serves as a marker for T cell activation; however, its role remains elusive.

The miR167-OsARF12 module regulates rice grain filling and grain size downstream of miR159.

Grain weight and quality are always determined by grain filling. Plant microRNAs have drawn attention as key targets for regulation of grain size and yield. However, the mechanisms that underlie grain size regulation remain largely unclear because of the complex networks that control this trait.

Arabidopsis Sec14 proteins (SFH5 and SFH7) mediate interorganelle transport of phosphatidic acid and regulate chloroplast development.

Lipids establish the specialized thylakoid membrane of chloroplast in eukaryotic photosynthetic organisms, while the molecular basis of lipid transfer from other organelles to chloroplast remains further elucidation. Here we revealed the structural basis of Sec14 homology proteins AtSFH5 and AtSFH7 in transferring phosphatidic acid (PA) from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to chloroplast, and whose function in regulating the lipid composition of chloroplast and thylakoid development. AtSFH5 and AtSFH7 localize at both ER and chloroplast, whose deficiency resulted in an abnormal chloroplast structure and a decreased thickness of stacked thylakoid membranes.

Spatiotemporal formation of the large vacuole regulated by the BIN2-VLG module is required for female gametophyte development in Arabidopsis.

In Arabidopsis thaliana, female gametophyte (FG) development is accompanied by the formation and expansion of the large vacuole in the FG; this is essential for FG expansion, nuclear polar localization, and cell fate determination. Arabidopsis VACUOLELESS GAMETOPHYTES (VLG) facilitates vesicular fusion to form large vacuole in the FG, but the regulation of VLG remains largely unknown. Here, we found that gain-of-function mutation of BRASSINOSTEROID INSENSITIVE2 (BIN2) (bin2-1) increases VLG abundance to induce the vacuole formation at stage FG1, and leads to abortion of FG.

Knockdown of the long non-coding RNA CACNA1G-AS1 enhances cytotoxicity and apoptosis of human diffuse large B cell lymphoma by regulating miR-3160-5p.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been confirmed to be connected with tumor proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis and recurrence. Previous studies have indicated that lncRNA calcium voltage-gated channel subunit α1 G (CACNA1G)-antisense 1 (AS1) can function as a pro-oncogene in several types of cancer. However, the specific role and mechanism of CACNA1G-AS1 have not been fully elucidated in human diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

Cytidinediphosphate diacylglycerol synthase-Mediated phosphatidic acid metabolism is crucial for early embryonic development of Arabidopsis.

Embryonic development is a key developmental event in plant sexual reproduction; however, regulatory networks of plant early embryonic development, particularly the effects and functional mechanisms of phospholipid molecules are still unknown due to the limitation of sample collection and analysis. We innovatively applied the microspore-derived in vitro embryogenesis of Brassica napus and revealed the dynamics of phospholipid molecules, especially phosphatidic acid (PA, an important second messenger that plays an important role in plant growth, development, and stress responses), at different embryonic developmental stages by using a lipidomics approach. Further analysis of Arabidopsis mutants deficiency of CDS1 and CDS2 (cytidinediphosphate diacylglycerol synthase, key protein in PA metabolism) revealed the delayed embryonic development from the proembryo stage, indicating the crucial effect of CDS and PA metabolism in early embryonic development.

Penpulimab for Relapsed or Refractory Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma: A Multicenter, Single-Arm, Pivotal Phase I/II Trial (AK105-201).

Background: Nearly all anti-PD-1 antibodies are of the IgG4 isotype, and thus possess residual FcR effector functions. Such anti-PD-1 antibodies are also associated with immune tolerance and escape due to instability of the CH3 domain and Fc-Fc interaction. In this trial, we examined the efficacy and safety of penpulimab, a novel IgG1 anti-PD-1 antibody that does not bind to the Fc receptor, in patients with refractory or relapsed classical Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R cHL).
