Dufulin is an efficient antiviral agent for plants, however, data on its environmental fate, particularly concerning its transformation products (TPs), remain scarce. The TPs formed during abiotic degradation may pose significant environmental risks due to potential toxicity. Therefore, this study systematically investigated the hydrolysis and photolysis kinetics of Dufulin in aqueous solutions across various pH conditions.

Background: The mechanism of palmitoylation in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains unclear.

Methods: This study retrieved AD data sets from the GEO database to identify palmitoylation-associated genes (PRGs). This study applied WGCNA along with three machine learning algorithms-random forest, LASSO regression, and SVM-RFE-to further select key PRGs (KPRGs).

Geriatric oral health care encounters significant challenges with the increase in the proportion of older individuals. Age-related changes in the dentition, muscles, and joints result in a decline in objective masticatory function, subjective restoration requirements, and acceptability among the elderly population, with individual variations influenced by systemic health. Considering functional requirements, the adaptability of stomatognathic and systemic health conditions, health economics and other factors, the authors believe that it should not be limited to the conventional "one-to-one" strategy for replacing missing teeth in geriatric prosthodontics.

Background: Plant diseases cause huge losses in agriculture worldwide every year, but the prolonged use of current commercial fungicides has led to the development of resistance in plant pathogenic fungi. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new, efficient, and green fungicides.

Results: Twenty-three nootkatone-based thiazole-hydrazone compounds were designed, synthesized, and characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), proton (H) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), carbon-13 (C) NMR, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS).

In plants, cytoskeletal proteins assemble into dynamic polymers that play numerous roles in diverse fundamental cellular processes, including endocytosis, vesicle trafficking, and the spatial distribution of organelles and protein complexes. Plant elicitor peptides (Peps) are damage/danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) that are perceived by the receptor-like kinases PEP RECEPTOR 1 (PEPR1) and PEPR2 to enhance innate immunity and inhibit root growth in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). To date, however, there is little evidence that the actin cytoskeleton of the host cell participates in DAMP-induced innate immunity.
