Enhancer-driven Shh signaling promotes glia-to-mesenchyme transition during bone repair.

Plp1-lineage Schwann cells (SCs) of peripheral nerve play a critical role in vascular remodeling and osteogenic differentiation during the early stage of bone healing, and the abnormal plasticity of SCs would jeopardize the bone regeneration. However, how Plp1-lineage cells respond to injury and initiate the vascularized osteogenesis remains incompletely understood. Here, by employing single-cell transcriptional profiling combined with lineage-specific tracing models, we uncover that Plp1-lineage cells undergoing injury-induced glia-to-MSCs transition contributed to osteogenesis and revascularization in the initial stage of bone injury.

Temperature seasonality regulates organic carbon burial in lake.

Organic carbon burial (OCB) in lakes, a critical component of the global carbon cycle, surpasses that in oceans, yet its response to global warming and associated feedbacks remains poorly understood. Using a well-dated biomarker sequence from the southern Tibetan Plateau and a comprehensive analysis of Holocene total organic carbon variations in lakes across the region, here we demonstrate that lake OCB significantly declined throughout the Holocene, closely linked to changes in temperature seasonality. Process-based land surface model simulations clarified the key impact of temperature seasonality on OCB in lakes: increased seasonality in the early Holocene saw warmer summers enhancing ecosystem productivity and organic matter deposition, while cooler winters improved organic matter preservation.

LncRNA SNHG5 induces CAFs-like phenotype and autophagy of AML-MSCs via PTBP1/ATG5 axis to confer chemoresistance of AML cells.

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is still a threaten to human health due to its high occurrence and poor prognosis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in bone marrow microenvironment (BMM) play a critical role in the development of AML. This study elucidated the interaction between MSCs and AML cells and its underlying mechanism.

Ultrasound-assisted cold plasma treatment reduces resistance to in vitro digestion of tropomyosin and Allergenicity of tropomyosin digestion products.

Tropomyosin (TM), the primary allergen in crustacean aquatic products, has excellent thermal and digestive stability. In this work, the changes in digestive resistance of TM and allergenicity of TM digestion products induced by ultrasound-assisted cold plasma (UCP) treatment were investigated. The stability of TM to simulated digestion were reduced, especially the simulated intestinal fluid (SIF) digestive resistance.

The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor PpeUNE12 regulates peach ripening by promoting polyamine catabolism and anthocyanin synthesis.

The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors (TFs) play important roles in various plant developmental and biological processes. However, the precise mechanisms by which bHLH TFs regulate fruit ripening warrant further investigation. Polyamine oxidase (PAO) is crucial for polyamine (PA) catabolism and plays crucial roles in fruit ripening.
