Single-Cell Insights Into Cellular Response in Abdominal Aortic Occlusion-Induced Hippocampal Injury.

Objective: Ischemia-reperfusion of the abdominal aorta often results in damage to distant organs, such as the heart and brain. This cellular heterogeneity within affected tissues complicates the roles of specific cell subsets in abdominal aorta occlusion model (AAO) injury. However, cell type-specific molecular pathology in the hippocampus after ischemia is poorly understood.

Expression and metabolism profiles of CVT associated with inflammatory responses and oxygen carrier ability in the brain.

Aim: As the main type of stroke, the incidence of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) has been rising. However, the comprehensive mechanisms behind it remain unclear. Thus, the multi-omics study is required to investigate the mechanism after CVT and elucidate the characteristic pathology of venous stroke and arterial stroke.

Reference genome facilitates trait development for faba beans.

Reference genomes facilitate trait improvement by aiding in the elucidation of causal genetic elements. Thanks to the recent release of a reference sequence for the faba bean, breeders and geneticists are poised to accelerate precision breeding and genetic improvement of this important crop.

CircPDS5B Reduction Improves Angiogenesis Following Ischemic Stroke by Regulating MicroRNA-223-3p/NOTCH2 Axis.

Background And Objectives: Ischemic stroke (IS) is responsible for major causes of global death and disability, for which promoting angiogenesis is a promising therapeutic strategy. This study analyzed circular RNA PDS5B (circPDS5B) and its related mechanisms in angiogenesis in IS.

Methods: In the permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) mouse model, circPDS5B, microRNA (miR)-223-3p, and NOTCH2 levels were checked.

Evaluation of genome size and phylogenetic relationships of the complex species.

Unlabelled: " complex" is a hypothetical group of species, which is supposed to be involved in the origin of modern sugarcane, and displays large genomes and complex chromosomal alterations. The utilization of restricted parents in breeding programs of modern cultivated sugarcane has resulted in a genetic blockage, which controlled its improvement because of the limited genetic diversity. The use of wild relatives is an effective way to broaden the genetic composition of cultivated sugarcane.

Wheat Microbiome: Structure, Dynamics, and Role in Improving Performance Under Stress Environments.

Wheat is an important cereal crop species consumed globally. The growing global population demands a rapid and sustainable growth of agricultural systems. The development of genetically efficient wheat varieties has solved the global demand for wheat to a greater extent.

Reference-grade Taxus genome unleashes its pharmacological potential.

The genus Taxus is well known for its anticancer metabolite, paclitaxel. Recent releases of chromosome-scale reference genomes for two Taxus species (Xiong et al. and Cheng et al.

High-Throughput Gene Expression Profile to Screen of Natural Herbals for Breast Cancer Treatment.

Breast cancer has surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women worldwide. Some therapeutic drugs and approaches could cause side effects and weaken the immune system. The combination of conventional therapies and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) significantly improves treatment efficacy in breast cancer.

A Comparative Analysis on the Structure and Function of the Rhizosphere Microbiome.

, an important Chinese medicinal herb, can be mainly cultivated in two planting patterns, cropland planting (DT) and understory planting (LX). We speculate that the rhizosphere microbiome may vary in DT and LX and may play an important role in promoting the growth and health of . In the present study, culture-independent Illumina HiSeq was employed to investigate the rhizosphere bacteria and fungi under DT and LX planting patterns.

A Glimmer of Hope: Maintain Mitochondrial Homeostasis to Mitigate Alzheimer's Disease.

Mitochondria are classically known to be cellular energy producers. Given the high-energy demanding nature of neurons in the brain, it is essential that the mitochondrial pool remains healthy and provides a continuous and efficient supply of energy. However, mitochondrial dysfunction is inevitable in aging and neurodegenerative diseases.

Disease-Associated Circular RNAs: From Biology to Computational Identification.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous RNAs with a covalently closed continuous loop, generated through various backsplicing events of pre-mRNA. An accumulating number of studies have shown that circRNAs are potential biomarkers for major human diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer's disease. Thus, identification and prediction of human disease-associated circRNAs are of significant importance.
