Abstract Cadmium (Cd) accumulation in rice grain poses a serious threat to human health. While several transport systems have been reported, the complexity of Cd and indicates necessity identifying additional genes, especially those that are responsible for divergence between indica japonica subspecies. Here, we show gene, OsCd1 , belonging major facilitator superfamily is involved root uptake contributes rice. Natural variation with missense mutation Val449Asp . Near-isogenic line tests...
Arsenic (As) pollution is a global problem, and the plant-based cleanup of contaminated soils, called phytoremediation, therefore great interest. Recently, transgenic approaches have been designed to develop As phytoremediation technologies. Here, we used one-gene approach for tolerance accumulation in Arabidopsis thaliana. PvACR3, key arsenite [As(III)] antiporter hyperaccumulator fern Pteris vittata, was expressed Arabidopsis, driven by CaMV 35S promoter. In response treatment, PvACR3...
The fern Pteris vittata is an arsenic hyperaccumulator. genes involved in arsenite (As(III)) transport are not yet clear. Here, we describe the isolation and characterization of a new P. aquaporin gene, PvTIP4;1, which may mediate As(III) uptake. PvTIP4;1 was identified from yeast functional complement cDNA library vittata. Arsenic toxicity accumulating activities were analyzed Saccharomyces cerevisiae Arabidopsis. Subcellular localization PvTIP4;1-GFP fusion protein protoplast callus...
Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) SALT TOLERANCE/B-BOX ZINC FINGER PROTEIN24 (STO/BBX24) is a negative regulator of the light signal transduction that localizes to nucleus plant cells and interacts with CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC1 (COP1) in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) two-hybrid system. The protein contains two B-box zinc-finger motives at N terminus conserved motif C-terminal part required for interaction COP1. BBX24 accumulates during deetiolation young seedlings first hours...
Abstract Neutrophils, an important component of the innate immune system, release extracellular traps (NETs) to eliminate invading pathogens by trapping and killing microbes. Recent studies have shown that NETs play a multitude additional roles in immunity inflammatory diseases. Therefore, may be involved persistent hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, objectives current study were determine whether HBV influences NET identify underlying mechanisms. HBV-infected mice (C57BL/6) used detect...
With mankind entering the smart age, Cd contamination risk control in food crop revolution has been put on agenda. Based theoretical basis, technical methods and developing trends, this review look back forward age of driven by 'genotype (G)+ envirotype (E)' dual-engines. Focusing G, an inter-specific assessment meta-analysis was carried, which a higher rice wheat than maize observed. So different strategies are recommended to be taken considering difference. To crops with high accumulating...
Background & AimsThe liver has complex interconnecting blood vessel and biliary networks; however, how the vascular network form regulate each other function are not well-understood. We aimed to examine role of Heg in mammalian development functional maintenance.MethodsGlobal (Heg-/-) or endothelial cell (EC)-specific deletion (Lyve1-Cre;Hegfl/fl ) mice were used study vivo liver. Carbon-ink anterograde retrograde injection visualize 3-dimensional patterning portal networks, respectively....
Pteris vittata is an arsenic (As) hyperaccumulator that can accumulate several thousand mg As kg-1 DW in aboveground biomass. A key factor for its hyperaccumulation ability highly efficient long-distance translocation system. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. We isolated PvAsE1 through full-length cDNA over-expression library of P. and characterized it a yeast system, RNAi gametophytes sporophytes, subcellular-location situ hybridization. Phylogenomic analysis was...
One of the main food crops in world, rice can accumulate high levels arsenic from flooded paddy soils, which seriously threatens human health. Soaking, a common processing method for brown products, especially noodles, was investigated this study. Japonica (Dao Hua Xiang No. 2) and Indica (Ye You 3) were selected studying effects soaking on concentrations, species, distributions. Results revealed that efficiently remove these two varieties, part removal is endosperm with maximal rate about...
Emerging evidence shows that elevated cholesterol levels are detrimental to health. However, it is unclear whether there an association between and the pituitary. We investigated effects of a high-cholesterol diet on pituitary hormones using in vivo animal studies epidemiological study. In experiments, rats were fed or control for 28 weeks. diet, serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH; also known as thyrotrophin), luteinising (LH) follicle-stimulating (FSH) produced by basophilic cells...
