Lily (Lilium spp.) LhERF061 suppresses anthocyanin biosynthesis by inhibiting LhMYBSPLATTER and LhDFR expression and interacting with LhMYBSPLATTER.

Ethylene has an essential function in the biosynthesis of anthocyanin. However, the molecular mechanism through which ethylene impacts the color of lily flower remains little appreciated. This study identified LhERF061, a dehydration-responsive element-binding (DREB family) transcription factor that suppresses anthocyanin biosynthesis in response to ethylene in lilies.

Targeted protein degradation: expanding the technology to facilitate the clearance of neurotoxic proteins in neurodegenerative diseases.

In neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs), disruptions in protein homeostasis hinder the clearance of misfolded proteins, causing the formation of misfolded protein oligomers and multimers. The accumulation of these abnormal proteins results in the onset and progression of NDDs. Removal of non-native protein is essential for cell to maintain proteostasis.

PlZAT10 binds to the ABA catabolism gene PlCYP707A2 promoter to mediate seed dormancy release in Paeonia lactiflora.

PlZAT10-PlCYP707A2 module promotes Paeonia lactiflora seeds germination. The herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora) seeds exhibit double dormancy in the epicotyl and hypocotyl, which significantly inhibits the process of cultivation and breeding of new varieties. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanism underlying seed dormancy release in P.

c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) including JNK1/2/3 are key members of mitogen-activated protein kinase family. Wherein JNK3 is specifically expressed in brain and emerges as therapeutic target, especially for neurodegenerative diseases. However, developing JNK3 selective inhibitors as chemical probes to investigate its therapeutic potential in diseases remains challenging.

Multidentate Fullerenes Enable Tunable and Robust Interfacial Bonding for Efficient Tin-Based Perovskite Solar Cells.

Improving the efficiency of tin-based perovskite solar cells (TPSCs) is significantly hindered by energy level mismatch and weak interactions at the interface between the tin-based perovskite and fullerene-based electron transport layers (ETLs). In this study, four well-defined multidentate fullerene molecules with 3, 4, 5, and 6 diethylmalonate groups, labeled as FM3, FM4, FM5, and FM6 are synthesized, and employed as interfacial layers in TPSCs. It is observed that increasing the number of functional groups in these fullerenes leads to shallower lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels and enhance interfacial chemical interactions.

Targeting Fascin1 maintains chondrocytes phenotype and attenuates osteoarthritis development.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritic disease, and phenotypic modification of chondrocytes is an important mechanism that contributes to the loss of cartilage homeostasis. This study identified that Fascin actin-bundling protein 1 (FSCN1) plays a pivotal role in regulating chondrocytes phenotype and maintaining cartilage homeostasis. Proteome-wide screening revealed markedly upregulated FSCN1 protein expression in human OA cartilage.

Pheromone cCF10 inhibits the antibiotic persistence of by modulating energy metabolism.

Introduction: Bacterial resistance presents a major challenge to both the ecological environment and human well-being, with persistence playing a key role. Multiple studies were recently undertaken to examine the factors influencing the formation of persisters and the underlying process, with a primary focus on Gram-negative bacteria and (Gram-positive bacteria). Enterococcus faecalis () is capable of causing a variety of infectious diseases, but there have been few studies of persisters.

Autophagy modulation in cancer therapy: Challenges coexist with opportunities.

Autophagy, a crucial intracellular degradation process facilitated by lysosomes, plays a pivotal role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. The elucidation of autophagy key genes and signaling pathways has significantly advanced our understanding of this process and has led to the exploration of autophagy as a promising therapeutic approach. This review comprehensively assesses the latest developments in small molecule modulators targeting autophagy.

Protective Effect of Parental Monitoring on Early-to-Mid Adolescents Displaying High-Level and Increasing Aggressive Behavior.

Studies that distinguish parental monitoring (parent-driven behaviors) from parental knowledge often fail to find protective effects of monitoring on adolescent behavior problems. To answer whether parental monitoring is more strongly associated with adolescent behavior problems among adolescents who may need it most, this study applied group-based trajectory modeling to change in early- to mid-adolescent aggressive behavior problems and examined associations between parental monitoring with different subgroups. Three latent groups of adolescents were found: Low Aggression, Medium-Increasing Aggression, and High-Increasing Aggression.

Pannonibacter tanglangensis sp. nov., a New Species Isolated from Pond Sediment.

Two bacterial strains (XCT-34 and XCT-53) isolated from sediment samples of an artificial freshwater reservoir were analyzed using a polyphasic approach. The two isolates are aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, motile with polar flagella, rod-shaped, and approximately 1.4-3.

Research Note: Rapid generation of a novel fowl adenovirus serotype 11 reverse genetic platform.

Fowl adenovirus serotype 11 (FAdV-11) is one of the main causative agents of inclusion body hepatitis (IBH) in broilers. Outbreaks of FAdV-11-related IBH have been increasingly reported in China and many other geographical areas worldwide. However, the critical virulence factors of FAdV-11 remain uncertain due to the lack of technical platforms for efficient manipulation of FAdV-11 genome.

Structure-Guided Discovery and Preclinical Assessment of Novel (Thiophen-3-yl)aminopyrimidine Derivatives as Potent ERK1/2 Inhibitors.

The RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signaling cascade is abnormally activated in various tumors, playing a crucial role in mediating tumor progression. As the key component at the terminal stage of this cascade, ERK1/2 emerges as a potential antitumor target and offers a promising therapeutic strategy for tumors harboring BRAF or RAS mutations. Here, we identified with a (thiophen-3-yl)aminopyrimidine scaffold as a potent ERK1/2 inhibitor through structure-guided optimization for hit In preclinical studies, showed powerful ERK1/2 inhibitory activities (ERK1/2 IC = 0.

SEB-YOLO: An Improved YOLOv5 Model for Remote Sensing Small Target Detection.

Due to the limited semantic information extraction with small objects and difficulty in distinguishing similar targets, it brings great challenges to target detection in remote sensing scenarios, which results in poor detection performance. This paper proposes an improved YOLOv5 remote sensing image target detection algorithm, SEB-YOLO (SPD-Conv + ECSPP + Bi-FPN + YOLOv5). Firstly, the space-to-depth (SPD) layer followed by a non-strided convolution (Conv) layer module (SPD-Conv) was used to reconstruct the backbone network, which retained the global features and reduced the feature loss.

Direct and Indirect Longitudinal Associations of Mother and Father Engagement in Middle Childhood on Adolescent Externalizing and Internalizing Behaviors.

Parent engagement is an important aspect of parenting during childhood. However, little is known about the unique longitudinal associations of mother and father engagement with adolescents' externalizing and internalizing problem behaviors. This study uses Future of Families and Child Wellbeing Study data to examine the potential direct and indirect associations of parent engagement at age 9 on adolescent externalizing and internalizing behaviors at age 15.

Mechanism of salidroside regulating autophagy based on network pharmacology and molecular docking.

Salidroside is a natural product of phenols with a wide range of pharmacological functions, but whether it plays a role in regulating autophagy is unclear. We systematically investigated the regulatory effect and molecular mechanism of salidroside on autophagy through network pharmacology, which provided a theoretical basis for subsequent experimental research. First, the target genes of salidroside were obtained using the Chinese Medicine System Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform, and the target genes were converted into standardized gene names using the Uniprot website.
