We studied changes in the level of methylation of a number of microRNA genes hypermethylated in non-small cell lung cancer and its histological subtypes as well as the relationship of methylation of a group of microRNA genes with clinical and morphological features of the tumor with smoking status. A significantly high level of methylation of 7 genes (MIR124-1/3, MIR125B-1, MIR129-2, MIR137, MIR1258, and MIR339) was revealed in adenocarcinoma and squamous cell lung cancer in comparison with samples of adjacent histologically unchanged lung tissue. In squamous cell lung cancer, a significantly high level of methylation of the MIR124-2 gene in the tumor was also shown. In addition, differences in the methylation profile of adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma at stages III-IV of the oncological process were revealed. A high level of methylation of the MIR137 and MIR1258 genes was shown for adenocarcinoma and MIR339, MIR129-2, and MIR124-2 for squamous cell carcinoma. Significant differences in the level of methylation of MIR124-2 and MIR375 genes were revealed for smoking patients with squamous cell lung cancer.

Utilization of Chlorella vulgaris methyl ester blend with diethyl ether to mitigate emissions of an unaltered single cylinder ci engine.

Environ Sci Pollut Res Int

Engine Testing Laboratory, Department of Automobile Engineering, College of Engineering and Technology, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur, 603203, Tamil Nadu, India.

The present work emphasizes the viability of methyl ester production, characterization, and utilization of third-generation biofuel from Chlorella vulgaris microalgae. The presence of methyl oleate (CHO) in the Chlorella vulgaris methyl ester (CVME) algae signifies the existence of higher oxidation stability and prone to peroxidation. The single-stage transesterified CVME algae contains majorly (C-H) functional group trailed by (C = O), (C-O), (O-CH), (C-O-C) with the elemental compositions of 66.

Although DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) and RNA editor ADAR triplications exist in Down syndrome (DS), their specific roles remain unclear. DNMT methylates DNA, yielding S-adenosine homocysteine (SAH), subsequently converted to homocysteine (Hcy) and adenosine by S-adenosine homocysteine (Hcy) hydrolase (SAHH). ADAR converts adenosine to inosine and uric acid.

Transcriptome-wide N-methyladenosinem modifications analysis of growth and fumonisins production in Fusarium proliferatum causing banana crown rot.

Crown rot caused by Fusarium proliferatum is a severe postharvest disease of banana fruit. The N-methyladenosine (mA) modification is the most common type of RNA modification and regulates gene expression in eukaryotes. Here, we analyzed transcriptome-wide changes in mA methylation to investigate post-transcriptional regulation mechanisms of growth and fumonisin biosynthesis of F.

Fine-tuning gibberellin improves rice alkali-thermal tolerance and yield.

Nature

Shanghai Collaborative Innovation Center of Agri-Seeds, Joint Center for Single Cell Biology, School of Agriculture and Biology, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China.

Soil alkalinization and global warming are predicted to pose major challenges to agriculture in the future, as they continue to accelerate, markedly reducing global arable land and crop yields. Therefore, strategies for future agriculture are needed to further improve globally cultivated, relatively high-yielding Green Revolution varieties (GRVs) derived from the SEMIDWARF 1 (SD1) gene. Here we propose that precise regulation of the phytohormone gibberellin (GA) to optimal levels is the key to not only confer alkali-thermal tolerance to GRVs, but also to further enhance their yield.

2-dodecyl-6-methoxycyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (DMDD) is a cyclohexanedione compound extracted from the roots of Averrhoa carambola L. Several studies have documented its beneficial effects on diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer. However, its potential neuroprotective effects on Parkinson's disease (PD) have not yet been explored.
