(), a significant ornamental plant species, is adversely affected by the severe soil heavy metal pollution resulting from rapid industrialization, particularly in terms of its growth environment. Cadmium (Cd), a representative heavy metal pollutant, poses a significant threat to plant growth and photosynthetic physiology. Despite the importance of understanding Cd stress resistance in rhododendrons, research in this area is limited.

is one the most commonly cultivated ornamental plant of economic importance and faces major challenges under heat stress. Melatonin has been widely shown to regulate plant stress response; however, the exact mechanism involved in heat stress in has yet to be determined. Here, we observed that in vitro plantlets supplemented with melatonin in the culture medium exhibited higher chlorophyll content, relative ion leakage, and fresh weight after 12 d of high-temperature treatment; the optimal concentration was established at 5 mg/L.

Melatonin (MT) serves as a potent antioxidant in plant organisms, bolstering their resilience to temperature stress. In this study, the impact of MT on various buckwheat varieties under high-temperature stress conditions (40 °C) was investigated. Specifically, five buckwheat seedling varieties, comprising three sweet buckwheat variants (Fagopyrum esculentum) and two bitter buckwheat types (Fagopyrum tataricum), were subjected to foliar sprays of melatonin at concentrations of 50, 100 and 200 μM, with water at 25 °C employed as a control.

Bipolar disorder (BD) is a significant neuropsychiatric condition characterized by marked psychological mood disturbances. Despite extensive research on the symptomatology of BD, the mechanisms underlying its development and presentation remain unknown. Consequently, potential treatments are limited, and existing medications often cause significant side effects, leading to treatment discontinuation.

Flame retardant polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) accumulate in human bodies through food and dust ingestion, and cause neurobehavioral deficits with obscure mechanism. We aimed to investigate NMDAR-CaMKⅡγ-mediated synapse-to-nuclear communication involved in BDE-209-induced cognitive impairment, and alleviation from exogenous melatonin. Decreased NMDAR subunits GluN2A and 2B, autophosphorylation of CaMKⅡα, and postsynaptic GluA1 trafficking were observed in the hippocampus of juvenile rats after maternal BDE-209 exposure.
