Aim: The study was to clarify the mechanism of miR-1258 targeting Prep1 (pKnox1) to control Transforming Growth Factor β1 (TGF-β1)/SMAD3 pathway in septic Acute Lung Injury (ALI)-induced oxidative stress and inflammation.
Methods: BEAS-2B cells and C57BL/6 mice were used to make in vitro and in vivo septic ALI models, respectively. miR-1258 expression was checked by RT-qPCR.
Article Synopsis
- Bacterial leaf streak (BLS) is a serious disease affecting rice, where resistance is controlled by multiple quantitative trait loci (QTLs).
- A QTL named qBlsr5a was previously identified on chromosome 5 and refined to a 30.0-kb interval containing only three predicted genes through the use of specialized rice strains and genotyping.
- One of these genes, LOC_Os05g01710, has notable genetic variations related to disease resistance and shares similarities with a known resistant gene, hinting that it could be a potential candidate for increasing BLS resistance in rice.
