Selection and Validation of Reference Genes in for Quantitative Real-Time PCR.

(Munro) Kurz is a sympodial bamboo species with a wide distribution in tropical and subtropical regions. Due to its remarkable regenerative ability and exceptional flavor, this species plays a pivotal role in bolstering the economies of numerous nations across these regions. We recently published a high-quality genome of this species.

Knockdown of KCNQ1OT1 Alleviates the Activation of NLRP3 Inflammasome Through miR-17-5p/TXNIP Axis in Retinal Müller Cells.

Purpose: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most severe and common complications caused by diabetic mellites. Inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation displays a crucial therapeutic value in DR. Studies have shown that KCNQ1OT1 plays a critical role in regulating NLRP3 inflammasome activation and participates in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications.

Chromosomal-level genome and metabolome analyses of highly heterozygous allohexaploid Dendrocalamus brandisii elucidate shoot quality and developmental characteristics.

Dendrocalamus brandisii (Munro) Kurz is a sympodial bamboo species with inimitable taste and flavorful shoots. Its rapid growth and use as high-quality material make this bamboo species highly valued for both food processing and wood applications. However, genome information for D.

Single-cell transcriptome atlas reveals spatiotemporal developmental trajectories in the basal roots of moso bamboo ().

Roots are essential for plant growth and development. Bamboo is a large Poaceae perennial with 1642 species worldwide. However, little is known about the transcriptional atlas that underpins root cell-type differentiation.

Phytohormone Crosstalk of Cytokinin Biosynthesis and Signaling Family Genes in Moso Bamboo ().

Cytokinin is widely involved in the regulation of plant growth, but its pathway-related genes have not been reported in Moso bamboo. In this study, a total of 129 candidate sequences were identified by bioinformatic methods. These included 15 family genes, 19 family genes, 22 family genes, 11 family genes and 62 family genes.

Phylogeny, transcriptional profile, and auxin-induced phosphorylation modification characteristics of conserved PIN proteins in Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis).

Auxin polar transport is an important way for auxin to exercise its function, and auxin plays an irreplaceable role in the rapid growth of Moso bamboo. We identified and performed the structural analysis of PIN-FORMED auxin efflux carriers in Moso bamboo and obtained a total of 23 PhePIN genes from five gene subfamilies. We also performed chromosome localization and intra- and inter-species synthesis analysis.

TNF-α released from retinal Müller cells aggravates retinal pigment epithelium cell apoptosis by upregulating mitophagy during diabetic retinopathy.

Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell damage, including mitophagy-associated cell apoptosis, accelerates the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR), a common complication of diabetes that causes blindness. Müller cells interact with RPE cells via pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). Herein, we investigated the role of the RPE cell epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38)/nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway in Müller cell-derived TNF-α-induced mitophagy-associated apoptosis during DR.
