Soybean is a high inorganic phosphate (Pi) demanding crop; its production is strongly suppressed when Pi is deficient in soil. However, the regulatory mechanism of Pi deficiency tolerance in soybean is still largely unclear. Here, our findings highlighted the pivotal role of the ethylene-associated pathway in soybean tolerance to Pi deficiency by comparatively studying transcriptome changes between a representative Pi-deficiency-tolerant soybean genotype NN94156 and a sensitive genotype Bogao under different Pi supplies. By further integrating high-confident linkage and association mapping, we identified that Ethylene-Overproduction Protein 1 (GmETO1), an essential ethylene-biosynthesis regulator, underlies the major quantitative trait locus (QTL) q14-2 controlling Pi uptake. GmETO1 was also the representative member of ETO1 family members that was strongly induced by Pi deficiency. Overexpressing GmETO1 significantly enhanced Pi deficiency tolerance by increasing proliferation and elongation of hairy roots, Pi uptake and use efficiency, and conversely, silencing of GmETO1 led to opposite findings. We further demonstrated that Pi-deficiency inducible genes critical for root morphological and physiological traits including GmACP1/2, Pht1;4, Expansin-A7 and Root Primordium Defective 1 functioned downstream of GmETO1. Our study provides comprehensive insight into the complex regulatory mechanism of Pi deficiency tolerance in soybean and a potential way to genetically improve soybean low-Pi tolerance.

Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic gave rise to uncertainty concerning potential sequelae related to a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. This landscape is currently unfolding with studies reporting sequelae on various domains (physical, cognitive, and psychosocial), although most studies focus on adults or only one domain. We sought to investigate concurrent sequelae on multiple domains 1 year after PICU admission for Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C).

Regulatory T cells (Tregs) has been shown to be involved in the induction of transplantation tolerance in numerous models. Our previous work demonstrated that METTL14 loss impaired Treg function and hindered the establishment of transplantation tolerance. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Context: The obesity epidemic parallels an increasing type 1 diabetes incidence, such that westernized diets, containing high fat, sugar and/or protein, through inducing nutrient-induced islet beta-cell stress, have been proposed as contributing factors. The broad-spectrum neutral amino acid transporter (B0AT1), encoded by Slc6a19, is the major neutral amino acids transporter in intestine and kidney. B0AT1 deficiency in C567Bl/6J mice, causes aminoaciduria, lowers insulinemia and improves glucose tolerance.

Introduction: Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), also known as Willis-Ekbom Disease (WED), is a sensorimotor disorder characterized by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs, typically accompanied by discomfort. Low iron levels, pregnancy, and age are some identified risk factors. RLS is treated using various pharmacological options, including dopamine agonists, benzodiazepines, anticonvulsants, opioids, and bupropion.
