During avian embryonic development, terminal erythroid differentiation occurs in the circulation. Some of the key events, such as the induction of erythroid 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG), carbonic anhydrase (CAII), and pyrimidine 5'-nucleotidase (P5N) synthesis are oxygen dependent (Baumann R, Haller EA, Schöning U, and Weber M, Dev Biol 116: 548-551, 1986; Dragon S and Baumann R, Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 280: R870-R878, 2001; Dragon S, Carey C, Martin K, and Baumann R, J Exp Biol 202: 2787-2795, 1999; Dragon S, Glombitza S, Götz R, and Baumann R, Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 271: R982-R989, 1996; Dragon S, Hille R, Götz R, and Baumann R, Blood 91: 3052-3058, 1998; Million D, Zillner P, and Baumann R, Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 261: R1188-R1196, 1991) in an indirect way: hypoxia stimulates the release of norepinephrine (NE)/adenosine into the circulation (Dragon et al., J Exp Biol 202: 2787-2795, 1999; Dragon et al., Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 271: R982-R989, 1996). This leads via erythroid beta-adrenergic/adenosine A(2) receptor activation to a cAMP signal inducing several proteins in a transcription-dependent manner (Dragon et al., Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 271: R982-R989, 1996; Dragon et al., Blood 91: 3052-3058, 1998; Glombitza S, Dragon S, Berghammer M, Pannermayr M, and Baumann R, Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 271: R973-R981, 1996). To understand how the cAMP-dependent processes are initiated, we screened an erythroid cDNA library for cAMP-regulated genes. We detected three genes that were strongly upregulated (>5-fold) by cAMP in definitive and primitive red blood cells. They are homologous to the mammalian Tob, Ifr1, and Fos proteins. In addition, the genes are induced in the intact embryo during short-term hypoxia. Because the genes are regulators of proliferation and differentiation in other cell types, we suggest that cAMP might promote general differentiating processes in erythroid cells, thereby allowing adaptive modulation of the latest steps of erythroid differentiation during developmental hypoxia.

Anthocyanin is the primary color-developing component in the pericarp of the passion fruit. Although the pericarp of the passion fruit is anticipated to be a significant source of anthocyanin, however, information regarding anthocyanin biosynthesis in the passion fruit pericarp remains unexplored. Based on metabolomics analysis, a total of five anthocyanins were identified in the purple-skinned passion fruit pericarp, among which three anthocyanins, petunidin-3-O-arabinoside, geranylgeranyl-3,5-O-diglucoside, and petunidin-3-O-rutinoside, play key roles in the coloration of the passion fruit pericarp.

Understanding drought resistance mechanisms is crucial for breeding poplar species suited to arid and semi-arid regions. This study explored the drought responses of three newly developed 'Zhongxiong' series poplars using integrated transcriptomic and physiological analyses. Under drought stress, poplar leaves showed significant changes in differentially expressed genes (DEGs) linked to photosynthesis-related pathways, including photosynthesis-antenna proteins and carbon fixation, indicating impaired photosynthetic function and carbon assimilation.

Physical activity (PA) and exercise elicit adaptations and physiological responses in skeletal muscle, which are advantageous for preserving health and minimizing chronic illnesses. The complicated atmosphere of the exercise response can be attributed to hereditary and environmental variables. The primary cause of these adaptations and physiological responses is the transcriptional reactions that follow exercise, whether endurance- (ET) or resistance- training (RT).

Article Synopsis
- Chinese cabbage is a key vegetable in southern China, but excess nitrogen fertilizers cause high nitrate levels, reducing nutritional value; therefore, breeding for better nitrogen utilization and lower nitrate accumulation is crucial.
- Ammonium transporter 1;2 (BcAMT1;2) enhances growth and decreases nitrate content in flowering Chinese cabbage but the mechanisms behind its effects are still unclear.
- Interaction studies show that BcLBD41 and BcMAMYB proteins influence BcAMT1;2 activity, affecting nitrogen metabolism and plant growth under varying nitrogen conditions.

The proliferation of CAR-T cells was hindered and cannot play its killing function well in solid tumors. And yet the regulatory mechanism of CAR-T cell proliferation is not fully understood. Here, we showed that recombinant expression of CD19CAR in T cells significantly increased the basal activation level of CAR-T cells and LCK activation.
