Recent Advances in Gene Mining and Hormonal Mechanism for Brown Planthopper Resistance in Rice.

Rice ( L.) feeds half the world's population and serves as one of the most vital staple food crops globally. The brown planthopper (BPH, Stål), a major piercing-sucking herbivore specific to rice, accounts for large yield losses annually in rice-growing areas.

Life-Long Aerobic Exercise is a Non-Pharmacological Approach for Inducing Autophagy and Delaying Muscle Atrophy in the Aging Population.

Numerous bodily processes deteriorate with age, chief among them being the loss of muscle mass and function. The condition referred to as aging myasthenia gravis impairs older persons' quality of life and is linked to a higher risk of several chronic illnesses. An increasing number of studies conducted in the last several years has demonstrated that moderate exercise can halt this process.

Data analysis of physical recovery and injury prevention in sports teaching based on wearable devices.

Athletes can also cause damage to some parts of their body during training, so specialized preparation activities should be carried out before athlete training to reduce the damage caused to the athlete's body, allowing the stressed parts to move and distribute the load. Excessive recovery has a significant effect on improving the performance level of the athletes studied and preventing sports injuries. This article studies the data analysis of body recovery and injury prevention in physical education teaching based on wearable devices.

Pectin-peptide complexes ameliorated physicochemical stabilities and in vitro digestion abilities of β-carotene loaded emulsions.

To improve the stabilities of low methoxy pectin (LMP) stabilized O/W emulsions for the delivery of bioactive substances, LMP was firstly modified with soy peptide (SP), corn peptide (CP) and whey protein peptide (WPP), respectively, by using dry-heat method, then the properties of LMP-peptide complexes stabilized O/W emulsions were characterized and the in vitro digestion of emulsions with β-carotene was test to evaluate the potential applications. LMP-peptide complexes were formed by covalent bonds according to FT-IR spectroscopy. Compared to LMP stabilized emulsions, LMP-peptide complexes stabilized emulsions had smaller droplet sizes and higher stabilities in the changed pH value, temperature and ionic strength.

Treatment with soluble bone morphogenetic protein type 1A receptor fusion protein alleviates irradiation-induced bone loss in mice through increased bone formation and reduced bone resorption.

An increased fracture risk is often observed in cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy (RT), particularly at sites within the field of radiation. Therefore, the development of appropriate therapeutic options to prevent RT-induced bone loss is urgently needed. A soluble form of the BMP receptor type 1A fusion protein (mBMPR1A-mFc) serves as an antagonist to endogenous BMPR1A.
