AI Article Synopsis

  • - The study examined the genetic diversity and seed metabolite profiles of five faba bean varieties, including three advanced lines (KK18, KK14, KK10) and two commercial cultivars (POLIKARPI and TANAGRA), using molecular markers and metabolomics analysis.
  • - The cultivar POLIKARPI showed the highest genetic variation, while KK14 and POLIKARPI had similar genetic distances; in contrast, KK18 and TANAGRA were more genetically distant.
  • - The advanced line KK18 stood out with an optimal nutritional profile, featuring high levels of beneficial metabolites and low levels of anti-nutritional factors, making it a strong candidate for future breeding programs.

Article Abstract

L. (faba bean) is one of the most promising pulse crops due to its nutritional value and high nitrogen fixation capacity. The aim of the present study was to compare the genetic diversity and the seed metabolite profiles of five genetic materials of faba bean. Specifically, three newly developed advanced lines (KK18, KK14 and KK10) and two commercial cultivars (POLIKARPI and TANAGRA), were evaluated for this purpose. Genetic diversity among populations was assessed by SCoT molecular markers. Through UPGMA dendrogram, genetic distances between populations were estimated. Untargeted metabolomics analysis of the seeds was performed employing GC/EI/MS. The cultivar POLYKARPI exhibited the highest polymorphism. All varieties showed a higher within-cultivars and advanced lines variability than between. POLYKARPI and KK14 had the lowest genetic distances, while KK18 and TANAGRA presented the highest ones. The advanced line KK18 displayed the best nutritional profile, the highest concentration of desirable metabolites (lactic acid and trehalose), the lowest concentration of anti-nutritional factors (oxalic acid) and the lowest concentration of saturated fatty acids (palmitic and stearic acid). According to the results of the present study, KK18 line is a very promising material for further exploration and utilization in breeding programs.

We report the synthesis of multifunctional periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (PMO NPs) with substantial two-photon absorption properties and targeting capability for two-photon excitation fluorescence (TPEF) and photodynamic therapy (TPE-PDT). Prepared using an adapted sol-gel synthesis, the nanoplatforms integrated two silylated chromophores in their three-dimensional matrix to maximize non-radiative Förster resonance energy transfer from a high two-photon absorption fluorophore donor to a porphyrin derivative acceptor, leading to an enhanced generation of reactive oxygen species. Combinations of biodegradable and non-biodegradable bis(triethoxysilyl)alkoxysilanes were employed for the synthesis of the NPs, and the corresponding photophysical studies revealed high efficiency levels of FRET.

Introduction: Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL) is a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma with a good prognosis, but the optimal treatment for relapsed/refractory (R/R) SPTCL has been rarely discussed.

Methods: This study aims to compare the efficacy of conventional chemotherapy and chemo-free immunomodulatory regimen for R/R SPTCL. We retrospectively reviewed the patients with first relapse or primary refractory SPTCL between September 1997 and October 2020.

Introduction: The FGFR3-TACC3 fusion gene exists in a variety of malignant tumors, including bladder cancer. In our ongoing research on the CRISPR-Cas13a gene-editing system, we reported the use of CRISPR-Cas13a gene-editing system to knockout FGFR3-TACC3 and inhibit the proliferation of bladder tumor cells.

Purpose:  This study aimed to use the CRISPR-Cas13a gene-editing system to target the FGFR3-TACC3 fusion gene in bladder cancer cells, which has the potential to be a new and effective treatment for bladder cancer.

Background & Aims: Owing to unexplained interpatient variation and treatment failure in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), novel therapeutic approaches remain an urgent clinical need. Hepatic neurons, belonging to the autonomic nervous system (ANS), mediate liver/whole body crosstalk. Pathological innervation of the ANS has been identified in cancer, nurturing tumor stroma and conferring stronger carcinogenic properties.
