DNA methylation variation is crucial to restore adventitious rooting ability during in vitro shoot culture-induced rejuvenation in apple rootstock.

In vitro shoot culture has been widely used for restoring adventitious rooting ability in rooting recalcitrant woody perennial species for the past few decades, but its molecular mechanism is largely uncovered. DNA methylation is an essential epigenetic mark that participates in many biological processes. Recent reports suggested a role of DNA methylation in vitro culture in plants.

Integrated transgene and transcriptome reveal the molecular basis of positively regulate adventitious rooting in apple rootstock.

For most fruit and forest species vegetative propagated from elite genotypes, adventitious rooting is essential. The ability to form adventitious roots significantly decreased during the juvenile to adult phase change. Apart from the miR156-SPL pathway, whether there is another regulation mechanism controlling age-dependent adventitious rooting ability remained largely unknown.

Diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer in pregnant women.

In recent years, the incidence of gynecological malignant tumors during pregnancy has increased, mainly due to the increased number of old age pregnancy. The most common gynecological malignant tumors in pregnancy are cervical cancer, accounting for 71.6%, followed by ovarian malignant tumors, accounting for 7.

3-acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid decreases the malignancy of taxol resistant human ovarian cancer by inhibiting multidrug resistance (MDR) proteins function.

Objective: Recurrence of ovarian cancer is mainly due to multidrug resistance (MDR). 3-acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid (AKBA) could reverse the multidrug resistance in human ileocecal adenocarcinoma cells, but whether AKBA could modulate acquired MDR in ovarian cancer needs to be elucidated.

Methods: The current study examined the effect of AKBA on ovarian cancer MDR using a Taxol resistant human ovarian cancer cell line A2780/Taxol.
