Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates familial Crohn's disease (CD) in a large cohort from China, finding that only 1.4% of patients have a family history of the disease.
  • It analyzed disease characteristics, noting moderate to good concordance in age at diagnosis and disease features among first-degree relatives, suggesting a genetic or familial link.
  • The findings indicate that the prevalence of familial CD in China is low, and disease features may show varying degrees of consistency depending on family closeness and length of follow-up.

Background: Mepiquat chloride (DPC) enhances the resistance of cotton plants, and it is widely used as a growth regulator. DPC can stimulate photosynthesis, stabilize the structure of cotton leaves, and affect population reproduction and energy substances in Aphis gossypii Glover (cotton aphids), but interactions between DPC and cotton aphids remain unclear. In this study, we analyzed the physiological responses of cotton to DPC, and the toxicity of DPC toward cotton aphids, before and after feeding, to explore the DPC-induced defense mechanism against cotton aphids.
