Plant growth regulator (PGR) crosstalk and interaction with the plant's genotype and environmental factors play a crucial role in microspore embryogenesis (ME), controlling microspore-derived embryo differentiation and development as well as haploid/doubled haploid plant regeneration. The complexity of the PGR network which could exist at the level of biosynthesis, distribution, gene expression or signaling pathways, renders the creation of an integrated model of ME-control crosstalk impossible at present. However, the analysis of the published data together with the results received recently with the use of modern analytical techniques brings new insights into hormonal regulation of this process. This review presents a short historical overview of the most important milestones in the recognition of hormonal requirements for effective ME in the most important crop plant species and complements it with new concepts that evolved over the last decade of ME studies.

The Kynurenine pathway is crucial in metabolizing dietary tryptophan into bioactive compounds known as kynurenines, which have been linked to glucose homeostasis. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) has recently emerged as the endogenous receptor for the kynurenine metabolite, kynurenic acid (KYNA). However, the specific role of AhR in pancreatic β-cells remains largely unexplored.

Abscission is a tightly regulated process in which plants shed unnecessary, infected, damaged, or aging organs, as well as ripe fruits, through predetermined abscission zones in response to developmental, hormonal, and environmental signals. Despite its importance, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This study highlights the deleterious effects of abscission on chloroplast ultrastructure in the cells of the tomato flower pedicel abscission zone, revealing spatiotemporal differential gene expression and key transcriptional networks involved in chloroplast vesiculation during abscission.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive central neurodegenerative disorder with an insidious onset. With global aging, the incidence and mortality of AD have been steadily increasing, yet effective treatments remain elusive. Obesity, characterized by excessive or abnormal fat accumulation, is a complex metabolic disorder and a confirmed risk factor for numerous diseases.

Evidence regarding the relationship between free triiodothyronine (FT3) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the association between FT3 and LDL-C levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who exhibit normal thyroid function. Between June 2022 and October 2023, a total of 3011 inpatients with T2DM and euthyroid status were continuously and non-selectively recruited from a Chinese hospital.
