Competitive control of CsNCED1-1 by CsLOB1 and CsbZIP40 triggers susceptibility to citrus canker.

Pustule formation is pivotal for the development of the Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc)-induced citrus canker disease (CCD). Although our previous study demonstrated that the exogenous application of abscisic acid (ABA) facilitated pustule formation induced by Xcc, the precise mechanism remains elusive.

Targeting SHCBP1 Inhibits Tumor Progression by Restoring Ciliogenesis in Ductal Carcinoma.

Primary cilia detect and transmit environmental signals into cells. Primary cilia are absent in a subset of ductal carcinomas characterized by distinctive biological activities, and recovery of cilia with normal functionality has been shown to have therapeutic potential in some cancer types. Therefore, elucidation of the underlying mechanism and clinical significance of ciliary loss in ductal carcinomas could help develop effective treatment strategies.

The mutation Asp-376-Glu in the ALS gene confers resistance to mesosulfuron-methyl in Beckmannia syzigachne.

Understanding the mechanisms by which weeds develop herbicide resistance is crucial for managing resistance effectively and optimizing herbicide use. Beckmannia syzigachne, a harmful grass weed prevalent in wheat and rice-wheat rotation areas, poses a significant threat to crop productivity. A field herbicide resistance survey identified a resistant population with a new ALS mutation (Asp-376-Glu).

Small Extracellular Vesicle piR-hsa-30937 Derived from Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms Upregulates CD276 in Macrophages to Promote Immune Evasion.

The role of PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNA) in small extracellular vesicles (sEV) derived from pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNEN) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) remains unexplored. We used multiplex IHC to analyze the expression of CD68, CD276 (B7H3), and CD3 on PNEN. CD276+ tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) were more abundant in tumor tissues than nontumor tissues and negatively correlated with T-cell infiltration.

Identification of leaf diseases in field crops based on improved ShuffleNetV2.

Rapid and accurate identification and timely protection of crop disease is of great importance for ensuring crop yields. Aiming at the problems of large model parameters of existing crop disease recognition methods and low recognition accuracy in the complex background of the field, we propose a lightweight crop leaf disease recognition model based on improved ShuffleNetV2. First, the repetition number and the number of output channels of the basic module of the ShuffleNetV2 model are redesigned to reduce the model parameters to make the model more lightweight while ensuring the accuracy of the model.

Water-Free Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Solution vs Vehicle for Dry Eye Disease: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: Dry eye disease (DED) is a prevalent eye disorder. Cyclosporine is an effective immunomodulator that is widely used in DED; however, due to its highly hydrophobic nature, delivery of cyclosporine to the ocular surface is challenging.

Intraperitoneal Injection of MCC950 Inhibits the Progression of Myopia in Form-Deprivation Myopic Mice.

Myopia, one of the most prevalent ocular diseases worldwide, is projected to affect nearly half of the global population by 2050. The main cause of myopia in most patients is axial myopia, which primarily occurs due to the elongation of the eyeball, driven by changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of scleral cells. Previous studies have shown that NLRP3, an important inflammatory mediator, plays a critical role in regulating the expression of MMP-2 in the sclera.
