Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are known to fine‐tune growth, development, and stress‐induced responses. Osa‐miR1873 is a rice‐specific miRNA targeting LOC_Os05g01790 . Here, we show that fine‐tunes rice immunity against Magnaporthe oryzae yield traits via was significantly upregulated in susceptible accession but downregulated resistance at 24 h post‐inoculation (hpi) of M. Overexpressing enhanced susceptibility M compromised induction defense In contrast, blocking through target mimicry...
Summary Rice false smut has emerged as a serious grain disease in rice production worldwide. The is characterized by the transformation of individual florets into balls, which caused fungal pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens . To date, little known about host factors required for ball formation U In this study, we identified histological determinants balls inoculating floral mutants defective with respect to parts. results showed that could form mature pistils, but failed develop superwoman...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play essential roles in rice immunity against Magnaporthe oryzae, the causative agent of blast disease. Here we demonstrate that Osa-miR162a fine-tunes M. oryzae and yield traits. Overexpression enhances resistance to accompanying enhanced induction defense-related genes accumulation hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In contrast, blocking Osa-miR162 by overexpressing a target mimic susceptibility fungus associating with compromised gene expression H2O2 accumulation. Moreover,...
Abstract International development work involves external partners bringing expertise, resources, and management for local interventions in LMICs, but there is often a gap understandings of relevant shared values. There widespread need to better design which accommodate elements culture, as emphasised by recent discussions global health research regarding neo-colonialism. One innovation the concept producing ‘cultural protocols’ precede guide community engagement or intervention design,...
It has been demonstrated that older adults' cognitive capacities can be improved with sleep duration. However, the relationship between overweight, obesity, and decline remains a subject of debate. The impact duration on performance in seniors body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2 is largely unknown. This makes it an intriguing to explore further. study used data from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2011-2014) 2,243 participants. Weighted multivariate linear regression...
Introduction Stunting is a significant and growing global problem that resisting scientific attempts to understand it in terms of direct nutrition-related determinants. In recent years, research included more complex, indirect multifactorial determinants expanded include multisectoral lifestyle-related approaches. The United Kingdom Research Initiative Global Challenges Fund's (UKRI GCRF) Action Against Hub starts on the premise dominant factors stunting may vary between contexts life phases...
Transformative learning is highly sought by practitioners and academics in sustainable development, education for adult education, because it involves shifts perspectives which can potentially underpin significant changes worldviews ways of learning. A practice-based design process crystallizing local shared values, called WeValue InSitu, already reported to regularly produce transformative (TL), but its lack discipline- or theory-based origins means there are currently no formalise...
The objective of this study was to estimate the joint effects cognitive impairment and depressive symptoms on health-related quality life (HRQoL) explore mediating role disability among Chinese community-dwelling older adults. A cross-sectional conducted with 2525 adults aged ≥60 years living in Shanghai, China 2019. Participants were divided into four groups: (1) non-depressed without dementia, (2) probable MCI, (3) depressed dementia (4) mild (MCI). HRQoL assessed using 36-Item Short-Form...
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a common and severe complication of diabetes. There large need to identify the effective safety strategies on diabetic (DCVD). 9-PAHSA novel endogenous fatty acid, has been reported reduce blood glucose levels attenuate inflammation. We aim evaluate effects DCVD investigate possible mechanisms underlying it. Firstly, serum in human were detected by HPLC-MS/MS analysis. Then was synthesized purified. The gavaged db/db mice with 50 mg/kg for 4 weeks....
Arabidopsis RESISTANCE TO POWDERY MILDEW 8.1 (RPW8.1) is an important tool for engineering broad-spectrum disease resistance against multiple pathogens. Ectopic expression of RPW8.1 leads to enhanced with cell death at leaves and compromised plant growth, implying a regulatory mechanism balancing RPW8.1-mediated growth. Here, we show that constitutively enhances the transcription factor WRKY51 activates salicylic acid ethylene signalling pathways; in turn suppresses expression, forming...
Pathogenic aging is regarded as asymptomatic AD when there no cognitive deficit except for neuropathology consistent with Alzheimer's disease. These individuals are highly susceptible to developing AD. Braak and Braak's theory specific tau pathology illustrates that the brain's temporal cortex region an initiation site early progression. So, hub gene analysis of this may reveal altered biological cascades be helpful alleviate in stage. Meanwhile, processing also drags its attention because...
Two new neutral receptors (1 and 2) containing thiourea amide groups were synthesized by simple steps in good yields. The binding properties of 1 2 with anions examined UVvis, fluorescence, H NMR spectroscopy. Receptor had a better AcO : PO 4 selectivity comparison that for receptor 2. association constants 1·AcO , 2·AcO 2·H higher those other (Cl Br I p-NO PhO PhOPO 3 2 ). In particular, clear color change was observed, from pale yellow to red-brown, upon addition the solution DMSO....
Aim . In this study we examined the influence of tetrandrine (Tet) on neuroprotective effects glutathione (GSH) in 6-hydroxydopamine- (6-OHDA-) lesioned rat model Parkinson’s disease (PD). Methods Levels redox system, dopamine (DA) metabolism, dopaminergic neuronal survival, and apoptosis substantia nigra (SN) striatum, as well rotational behavior animals were after a 50-day administration GSH + Tet (or GSH) and/or L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-dopa) to PD rats.

Abstract Southeast China is one of the core areas Sino‐Japanese floristic region and a hotspot biodiversity in East Asia. This has been considered as both museum cradle woody genera China. Why with highly stable topography climate could be species diversity remains unclear. In this study, phylogeographic pattern genetic structure Wikstroemia monnula , an endemic to southeast China, were analyzed by sequencing four chloroplast DNA fragments (4679 bp total) 836 individuals from 39 populations....
Cities worldwide are putting policies in place to combat impacts of climate change, but it has been established that order engender public support, the need resonate with local perceptions and values. However, these notoriously difficult obtain an authentic version: values require some interpretation by researchers trying define them, this modifies them unacceptably. In work we use a transdisciplinary perspective, holding fast for well-defined outcomes obtaining via humanities-based process,...
Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most common chronic diseases among elderly people. The T2DM increases risk cardio-cerebrovascular disease (CCD), and main pathological change CCD atherosclerosis (AS). Meanwhile, carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are involved in formation progression plaques AS. However, exact physiological mechanism anhydrase III (CAIII) has not been clear yet, there also no correlation study between CAIII protein with CCD. 8-week old diabetic mice (db/db −/−...
