Insects secret chemosensory proteins (CSPs) into plant cells as potential effector proteins during feeding. The molecular mechanisms underlying how CSPs activate plant immunity remain largely unknown. We show that CSPs from six distinct insect orders induce dwarfism when overexpressed in Nicotiana benthamiana.

Mainly performed within a rapid diagnostic tests company, a lateral flow (LF) system using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as transducers is presented able to detect three bacteria of interest, of relevance for antimicrobial resistance (AMR): Clostridioides difficile, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and Klebsiella pneumoniae, with a limit of detection of 25 ng/mL of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) for C. difficile, 36 ng/mL of penicillin-binding protein 2a (PBP2a) for MRSA, and 4 × 10 CFU/mL for K. pneumoniae.

Chinese water chestnut (CWC) is popular among consumers due to its unique flavor and crisp and sweet taste. Thus far, the key substances affecting the taste compound of CWC are still unclear. In this study, we used UPLC-MS/MS and an electronic tongue system to study the effects of four typical steaming and cooking methods, cooking without peel for 10 min (PC), steaming without peel for 15 min (PS), cooking with peel for 30 min (WPC), steaming with peel for 30 min (WPS), on the taste compound generation and variation of CWC, and revealed the secret of its crisp and sweet taste.

Background: Pancreatic beta cells regulate bioenergetics efficiency and secret insulin in response to glucose and nutrient availability. The mechanistic Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) network orchestrates pancreatic progenitor cell growth and metabolism by nucleating two complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2. Objective: To determine the impact of mTORC1/mTORC2 inhibition on amino acid metabolism in mouse pancreatic beta cells (Beta-TC-6 cells, ATCC-CRL-11506) using high-resolution metabolomics (HRM) and live-mitochondrial functions.
