Ferroptosis is a newly discovered form of non-apoptotic regulated cell death and characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Due to the enhanced dependence on iron in cancer cells, induction ferroptosis becoming promising therapeutic strategy. However, precise underlying molecular mechanism regulation process remains largely unknown. In present study, we demonstrate that protein Frataxin (FXN) key regulator modulating homeostasis mitochondrial function. Suppression FXN expression...
Abstract Posttranslational modifications increase the complexity and functional diversity of proteins in response to complex external stimuli internal changes. Among these, protein lipidations which refer lipid attachment are prominent, primarily encompassing five types including S-palmitoylation, N-myristoylation, S-prenylation, glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor cholesterylation. Lipid plays an essential role regulation trafficking, localisation, stability, conformation,...
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a key technology to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from industrial processes in feasible, substantial, timely manner. For geological CO2 be safe, reliable, accepted by society, robust strategies for leakage detection, quantification management are crucial. The STEMM-CCS (Strategies Environmental Monitoring of Marine Capture Storage) project aimed provide techniques understanding enable inform cost-effective monitoring CCS sites the marine...
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is an essential crop with high economic value. The growth of this plant sensitive to environmental stress. Heat shock factor (Hsf) a family antiretroviral transcription factors that regulate defense system against biotic and abiotic To date, few studies have identified bio-analyzed Hsfs in common bean.In study, 30 Hsf (PvHsf1-30) were from the PFAM database. PvHsf1-30 belonged 14 subfamilies similar motifs, gene structure cis-acting elements. members...
Summary Among the iron‐sulphur cluster assembly proteins encoded by gene iscSUA ‐ hscBA fdx in E scherichia coli , IscA has a unique and strong iron binding activity can provide for vitro . Deletion of its paralogue SufA results an mutant that fails to assemble [4 F e‐4 S ] clusters under aerobic conditions, suggesting crucial role biogenesis. Here we report among proteins, also specific Cu ( I ) vivo The centre is stable resistant oxidation conditions. Mutation conserved cysteine residues...
ABSTRACT While copper is an essential trace element in biology, pollution of groundwater from has become a threat to all living organisms. Cellular mechanisms underlying toxicity, however, are still not fully understood. Previous studies have shown that iron-sulfur proteins among the primary targets toxicity Escherichia coli under aerobic conditions. Here, we report that, anaerobic conditions, E. cells even more susceptible medium. Whereas addition 0.2 mM copper(II) chloride LB...
This article studies the mean and mean-square behaviors of M-estimate based normalized subband adaptive filter algorithm (M-NSAF) with robustness against impulsive noise. Based on contaminated-Gaussian noise model, stability condition, transient steady-state results are formulated analytically. These analysis help us to better understand M-NSAF performance in To further obtain fast convergence low estimation error, we derive a variable step size (VSS) algorithm. VSS scheme is also...
In recent years, deep learning (DL) techniques have shown great potential in wireless communications. Unlike DL-based receivers for time-invariant or slow time-varying channels, we propose a new receiver single carrier communication underwater acoustic (UWA) channels. Without the off-line training, proposed alternately works with online training and test modes accommodating time variability of UWA Simulation results show better detection performance achieved by considerable reduction...
While zinc is an essential trace metal in biology, excess toxic to organisms. Previous studies have shown that toxicity associated with disruption of the [4Fe-4S] clusters various dehydratases Escherichia coli Here, we report intracellular overload E. cells inhibits iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis without affecting preassembled proteins. Among housekeeping assembly proteins encoded by gene iscSUA-hscBA-fdx-iscX cells, scaffold IscU, iron chaperone IscA, and ferredoxin strong binding activity...
Abstract STUDY QUESTION To evaluate the impact of storage time after vitrification on embryo viability, pregnancy outcomes and neonatal outcomes. SUMMARY ANSWER The prolonged vitrified embryos negatively affected outcomes, including biochemical rate, clinical live birth rate; but did not influence WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Although has been fundamental tool ART treatments in recent years, few studies have explored period embryonic DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION A retrospective study was performed among...
Abstract Background Chemotherapy improves the survival rates of patients with various cancers but often causes some adverse effects, including ovarian damage, characterised by a decrease in primordial follicle stockpiles. Recent studies have revealed that chemotherapy may stimulate PI3K signalling pathway, thereby resulting accelerated activation and decreased reserve. Quercetin is an inhibitor pathway; however, its protective effects against chemotherapy-induced loss mice not been...
The ability to detect and monitor any escape of carbon dioxide (CO2) from sub-seafloor CO2 storage reservoirs is essential for public acceptance capture (CCS) as a climate change mitigation strategy. Here, we use repeated high-resolution seismic reflection surveys acquired using chirp profiler mounted on an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), image gas released into shallow sub-surface sediments above potential CCS site at 120 m water depth in the North Sea. Observations temporal changes...
Multi-input multi-output (MIMO) detection based on turbo principle has been shown to provide a great enhancement in the throughput and reliability of underwater acoustic (UWA) communication systems. Benefits iterative MIMO systems, however, can be obtained only when high quality channel estimation is ensured. In this paper, we develop new soft-decision-driven sparse equalization scheme triply selective UWA. First, Homotopy recursive least square dichotomous coordinate descent (Homotopy...
Abstract Background Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), often linked with obesity, can also affect individuals normal weight, a condition known as “lean NAFLD”, imposing comparable burdens and adverse effects. However, the impact of diet on lean NAFLD remains underexplored. The objective this study is to investigate correlation between Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) among Americans, stratified by waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) body mass index (BMI).

Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) is a genetically intricate hexaploid crop. The purple-fleshed variety, enriched with anthocyanin pigments, an outstanding source for creating high-value functional products. Previous research on biosynthesis has primarily focused the above-ground plant parts at transcriptional level. However, regulatory mechanisms underlying accumulation in underground tuberous roots of sweetpotato remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to elucidate...
