Long-distance signaling is essential for coordination of plant development and environmental responses. We originally isolated a tiny mutant named bypass1 (bps1), which has defects in shoot and root development. The bps1 roots overproduce a mobile signal (bps signal) that arrests both root and shoot development. Our recent study demonstrated that all three BPS gene family members prevent ectopic synthesis of the same bps signal.bps multiple mutants show progressively more severe developmental defects. An embryogenesis analysis revealed abnormal cell divisions in all meristem lineages of bps triple mutants. These defects appear to be auxin independent, and arise prior to changes in PLT1 and PLT2 expression.

, a member of the PAT family, is expressed in both adipocytes and steroidogenic cells. In this study, we used cell transfection technology combined with transcriptome sequencing to investigate the regulatory mechanism of in goose follicular GCs. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis revealed that in the four groups (phGC: over_vs_over-NC; hGC: over_vs_over-NC; phGC: si_vs_si-NC; hGC: si_vs_si-NC), most differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were significantly enriched ( < 0.

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a debilitating autoimmune skin blistering disease, characterized by the deposition of specific autoantibodies at the dermal-epidermal junction. This leads to an inflammatory cascade involving the activation of complement proteins, mast cell degranulation, immune cell recruitment, and the release of proteases by granulocytes. While several cytokines and signaling pathways have been implicated in the pathogenesis of BP, the precise mechanism behind autoantibody production remains unclear.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a devastating malignant brain tumor with a poor prognosis. GBM is associated with radioresistance. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) such as protein phosphorylation can play an important role in the cellular response to radiation.

Color vision, which is mediated by cone photoreceptors in vertebrates, is essential for perceiving the external environment. Bisphenol A (BPA) and its substitute bisphenol S (BPS) have been widely used worldwide, while the evaluation of their safety, especially the newly discovered visual toxicity mechanism caused by them in recent years, has not been clearly explored. In the present study, we investigated the effects of BPA treatment (1, 10, and 100 μg/L) on cone cell development and function to evaluate visual toxicity.

ATP is involved in numerous physiological functions, such as neurotransmission, modulation, and secretion, as well as in cell proliferation, differentiation, and death. While ATP serves an essential intracellular role as a source of energy, it behaves differently in the extracellular environment, where it acts as a signaling molecule capable of activating specific purinergic receptors (P2YRs and P2XRs) that modulate the response to ATP. Extracellular ATP signaling is a dynamic area of research, with particular interest in ATP's effects on inflammatory conditions and pain modulation.
