Determination of an optimum sampling unit of Ricania shantungensis (Hemiptera: Ricaniidae) eggs in persimmons

Plos.org 

by Sunghoon Baek, Hwa-Young Seo, Chang-Gyu Park

Even though the optimum sampling methods for invasive pests are very important in newly invaded areas, the standard sampling unit of Ricania shantungensis is still undeveloped in persimmons. Among all developmental stages of R. shantungensis, the egg has close relationship between its density and subsequent tree damage. Thus, this study was conducted to suggest an optimum sampling unit for R. shantungensis eggs in persimmons based on characteristics of its within-tree distribution pattern.

Experimental uninephrectomy associates with less parasympathetic modulation of heart rate and facilitates sodium-dependent arterial hypertension

by Rainer U. Pliquett, Ralf P. Brandes

Background

Blood pressure is known to be increased in kidney donors following living-donor kidney transplantation. However, the physiological underpinnings of the blood-pressure increase following uninephrectomy remain unclear. We hypothesized that changes in sympathetic tone or in parasympathetic modulation of sinus node function are involved in the blood-pressure increase following experimental kidney-mass reduction.

Methods

C57BL6N mice (6... Читать дальше...



Evolutionary insights into primate skeletal gene regulation using a comparative cell culture model

Plos.org 

by Genevieve Housman, Emilie Briscoe, Yoav Gilad

The evolution of complex skeletal traits in primates was likely influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Because skeletal tissues are notoriously challenging to study using functional genomic approaches, they remain poorly characterized even in humans, let alone across multiple species. The challenges involved in obtaining functional genomic data from the skeleton, combined with the difficulty of obtaining such tissues from nonhuman apes... Читать дальше...

Set2 histone methyltransferase regulates transcription coupled-nucleotide excision repair in yeast

Plos.org 

by Kathiresan Selvam, Dalton A. Plummer, Peng Mao, John J. Wyrick

Helix-distorting DNA lesions, including ultraviolet (UV) light-induced damage, are repaired by the global genomic-nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) and transcription coupled-nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) pathways. Previous studies have shown that histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) such as histone acetylation and methylation can promote GG-NER in chromatin. Whether histone PTMs also regulate the repair of... Читать дальше...

The nitrate-inducible NAC transcription factor NAC056 controls nitrate assimilation and promotes lateral root growth in Arabidopsis thaliana

Plos.org 

by Peipei Xu, Wei Ma, Jinbo Hu, Weiming Cai

Nitrate can affect many aspects of plant growth and development, such as promoting root growth and inhibiting the synthesis of secondary metabolites. However, the mechanisms underlying such effects and how plants can integrate nitrate signals and root growth needs further exploration. Here, we identified a nitrate-inducible NAC family transcription factor (TF) NAC056 which promoted both nitrate assimilation and root growth in Arabidopsis. NAC056 is a nuclear-localized transcription activator... Читать дальше...

Tumor cell intrinsic and extrinsic features predict prognosis in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer

Plos.org 

by Kevin Yao, Evelien Schaafsma, Baoyi Zhang, Chao Cheng

Although estrogen-receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer is generally associated with favorable prognosis, clinical outcome varies substantially among patients. Genomic assays have been developed and applied to predict patient prognosis for personalized treatment. We hypothesize that the recurrence risk of ER+ breast cancer patients is determined by both genomic mutations intrinsic to tumor cells and extrinsic immunological features in the tumor microenvironment.

The impact of the spatial heterogeneity of resistant cells and fibroblasts on treatment response

Plos.org 

by Masud M A, Jae-Young Kim, Cheol-Ho Pan, Eunjung Kim

A long-standing practice in the treatment of cancer is that of hitting hard with the maximum tolerated dose to eradicate tumors. This continuous therapy, however, selects for resistant cells, leading to the failure of the treatment. A different type of treatment strategy, adaptive therapy, has recently been shown to have a degree of success in both preclinical xenograft experiments and clinical trials. Adaptive therapy is used to maintain... Читать дальше...

The transcription factor HLH-26 controls probiotic-mediated protection against intestinal infection through up-regulation of the Wnt/BAR-1 pathway

Plos.org 

by Yu Sang, Jie Ren, Alejandro Aballay

Probiotics play a critical role in the control of host intestinal microbial balance, protecting the host from gastrointestinal pathogens, modulating the host immune response, and decreasing host susceptibility to infection. To understand the mechanism underlying the protective effect of probiotics against infections through immune regulation, we examined protection against Salmonella enterica infection following exposure to nonpathogenic Enterococcus faecium in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.
