The T87 cell line has been widely used in both basic and biotechnological plant sciences. -mediated transformation of this cell line was reported to be highly efficient when precultured in Gamborg's B5 medium for a few days. However, because we could not obtain the expected efficiency in our laboratory, we further examined the preculture conditions of T87 cells in the -mediated transformation. As a result, we found that preculture in an excess amount of Murashige and Skoog (MS) macronutrients before cultivation in the B5 medium enhanced the transformation efficiency up to 100-fold, based on the transformed callus number on selective gellan gum plates. In this study, transformants were labeled with green fluorescent protein (GFP), and we found multiple fluorescent spots on individual transgenic calli. Therefore, the actual number of transgenic clones seems much more than that of transgenic calli. In our MS macronutrient-rich culture condition, T87 cells tended to aggregate and formed bigger cell clumps, a change that might be related to the enhancement of transformation efficiency. Based on these results, we report an improved protocol of -mediated transformation of T87 cells with high efficiency.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer treatment but are frequently associated with immune-related adverse events (irAEs). This article offers a novel synthesis of findings from both preclinical and clinical studies, focusing on the molecular mechanisms driving irAEs across diverse organ systems. It examines key immune cells, such as T cell subsets and myeloid cells, which are instrumental in irAE pathogenesis, alongside an in-depth analysis of cytokine signaling [interleukin (IL)-6, IL-17, IL-4), interferon γ (IFN-γ), IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)], integrin-mediated interactions [integrin subunits αITGA)4 and ITGB7], and microbiome-related factors that contribute to irAE pathology.

Immunogenic cell death (ICD) has recently emerged as a promising strategy in reinforcing anti-PD-L1 blockade immunotherapy of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib (PAL), as a clinical star medicine targeting the cell cycle machinery, is an ideal candidate for fabricating a highly efficient ICD inducer for TNBC chemoimmunotherapy. However, the frequently observed chemoresistance and clinical adverse effects, as well as significant antagonistic effects when co-administered with certain chemotherapeutics, have seriously restricted the efficiency of PAL and the feasibility of combination strategies.

Plants are an important source of food, energy, and bioproducts. Advances in genetics, genomics-assisted breeding, and biotechnology have facilitated the combining of desirable traits into elite cultivars. To ensure sustainable crop production in the face of climate challenges and population growth, it is essential to develop and implement techniques that increase crop yield and resilience in environments facing water scarcity, nutrient deficiencies, and other abiotic and biotic stressors.

Background: Previous studies have demonstrated perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) impact renal function, with albumin playing dominant role in their transport and accumulation. However, the mediating role of albumin in PFAS-induced renal impairment and the identification of sensitive populations remain uninvestigated.
Methods: This study included 9328 individuals from NHANES 1999-2018 with data on serum PFAS, creatinine, albumin, and covariates.
Agrobacterium-mediated transient transformation of Flaveria bidentis leaves: a novel method to examine the evolution of C photosynthesis.

The genus Flaveria has been studied extensively as a model for the evolution of C photosynthesis. Thus far, molecular analyses in this genus have been limited due to a dearth of genomic information and the lack of a rapid and efficient transformation protocol. Since their development, Agrobacterium-mediated transient transformation protocols have been instrumental in understanding many biological processes in a range of plant species.
