Reactive nitrogen species (RNS), mainly nitric oxide (NO), are highly reactive molecules with a prominent role in plant response to numerous stresses including herbivores, although the information is still very limited. This perspective article compiles the current progress in determining the NO function, as either a signal molecule, a metabolic intermediate, or a toxic oxidative product, as well as the contribution of molecules associated with NO metabolic pathway in the generation of plant defenses against phytophagous arthropods, in particular to insects and acari.

While iron (Fe) is essential for life and plays important roles for almost all growth related processes, it can trigger cell death in both animals and plants. However, the underlying mechanisms for Fe-induced cell death in plants remain largely unknown. S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) has previously been reported to regulate nitric oxide homeostasis to prevent Fe-induced cell death within root meristems.

Vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) relaxation by guanylyl cyclases (GCs) and cGMP is mediated by NO and its receptor soluble GC (sGC) or natriuretic peptides (NPs) ANP/BNP and CNP with the receptors GC-A and GC-B, respectively. It is commonly accepted that cultured SMCs differ from those in intact vessels. Nevertheless, cell culture often remains the first step for signaling investigations and drug testing.

Inflammation models with the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) are widely used in the in vitro investigation of new therapeutic approaches for osteoarthritis (OA). The aim of this study was to systematically analyze the influence of IL-1β in a 3D chondral pellet culture model. Bovine articular chondrocytes were cultured to passage 3 and then placed in pellet culture.

Background: Paternal preconception alcohol exposure affects fetal development; however, it is largely unknown about the influences on offspring vasculature and mechanisms.
Methods: Offspring born form paternal rats treated with alcohol or water before pregnant was raised until 3 months of age. Vessel tone of mesenteric arteries was detected using myograph system; whole-cell calcium channel current in smooth muscle cells was tested using patch-clamp; molecule expressions were detected with real-time PCR, western blotting, and Dihydroethidium (DHE); DNA methylations were determined using targeted bisulfate sequencing assay.

Background: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is linked to prolonged endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. P21-activated kinase 2 (Pak2) facilitates a protective ER stress response. This study explores the mechanism and role of Pak2 in HFpEF pathology.
