However, it has been rarely documented that genes participate in spirodiclofen resistance in . In previous research, we found that spirodiclofen resistance is related to increased P450 and CCE enzyme activities in .

Previously, a resistant strain of Neoseiulus barkeri for chlorpyrifos was obtained. In the current study, two up-regulated (NbCYP3A6, NbCYP3A16) and one down-regulated (NbCYP3A24) P450s were screened through differential expression analysis and other detoxification-related genes such as CCEs, GST, etc.

In this study, we investigate the relationship between the structure of gut bacterial symbionts and insecticide susceptibility in , the important carrier of Liberibacter asiaticus (Las), the causal agent of Huanglongbing (HLB). Our results indicated that antibiotic treatment significantly increased the susceptibility of to bifenthrin and thiamethoxam, and significantly decreased the relative abundance of and Profftella, enzyme activities of CarEs, and expression level of multiple CarE genes.

Unfortunately, the current pharmacological treatment for liver fibrosis is limited by its inability to regulate inflammation and oxidative stress concurrently. In this study, we developed a cell membrane biomaterial for the treatment of liver fibrosis, which we designated as PM.

Uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are critical for the removal of a variety of exogenous and endogenous substances. In this study, an enzyme activity assay revealed that UGTs potentially contribute to P.

The material exhibited good stability and an ideal luminescent property in water. In addition, it was found that Zn-PBC displayed a different fluorescent response to different types of amino acids, and the mechanism was investigated.
