Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a significant pathogen affecting swine, causing severe economic losses worldwide. This study explores the regulatory role of miRNA-328-3p to ZO-1 expression and its impact on PEDV proliferation via the PLC-β1-PKC pathway in IPEC-J2 cells. We found that miRNA-328-3p can target ZO-1, influencing its expression and subsequently affecting the integrity of tight junctions in the cells.

This review explores the interplay between sex hormones, particularly estrogen and progesterone, and immune regulation in ovarian cancer. We delve into the mechanisms by which these hormones influence immune cell function, modulate immune checkpoints, and alter the tumor microenvironment.

Studies showed that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) can promote the rooting ability, and auxin pathway in basal stem of cuttings was involved in this process.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA photoredox-catalyzed aminolactonization of unsaturated carboxylic acids was achieved using -aminopyridinium salts as the amino radical precursor. The transformation features mild conditions and a remarkably broad substrate scope, offering an efficient approach to construct a wide range of 4-sulfonamino 3,4-dihydroisocoumarins. Mechanistic studies indicate that the reaction proceeds via a distinctive -aminopyridinium salt-promoted electrophilic amination of 2-styrylbenzoic acids.
