摘要:Dietary deficiencies in essential micronutrients and other phytonutrients represent a global health and economic burden, contributing to hidden hunger and chronic diseases. While genome editing has been employed to improve individual nutritional traits in crops, multibiofortification through simultaneous modification of multiple distinct metabolic pathways is more challenging. Here, we designed a multiplex CRISPR-Cas strategy to edit five key genes in tomato: Sl7-DR2, SlGAD3, SlSGR1, SlGGP1, a...

摘要:Innate immunity mediated by myeloid cells defends against infection and injury, but when chronically activated, it drives tissue damage and neurodegeneration. Molecular imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) enables noninvasive, real-time monitoring of such processes in vivo. However, most current neuroinflammation PET tracers lack specificity for activated myeloid cells. G protein-coupled receptor 84 (GPR84) is a promising biomarker that is selectively upregulated on activated microg...

摘要:Isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase (ICMT) catalyzes C-terminal methylation of prenylated CAAX proteins, a final processing step promoting membrane association and signaling. Although ICMT has been pursued to disrupt RAS membrane targeting, its role in BRAFV600E-driven cancers and critical substrates remains unclear. Here, genetic and pharmacologic (UCM-1336) ICMT inhibition suppressed proliferation and invasion in BRAFV600E-mutant melanoma cells and reduced tumor growth in xenografts...

摘要:The intrinsic link between temperature and leaf-to-air vapor pressure difference (Delta e) complicates isolation of their individual effects on photosynthesis. Consequently, how CO2 diffusion changes under heat and high evaporative demand, particularly through mesophyll conductance (g(m)) responses, remains poorly understood. The conditions under which biochemical colimitation occurs, meaning Rubisco carboxylation and RuBP regeneration capacities match, are also unclear. To advance understandi...

摘要:The Wildland-Human Interface (WHI), where human infrastructure and activities meet or intermingle with wildland vegetation, represents a critical zone of human-environmental conflict. Here, we present the first global map to explicitly differentiate the WHI into its Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) and Wildland-Agriculture Interface (WAI) components between 2000 and 2020, using a scale-adaptive HEALpix Quadtree algorithm. We show that the global WHI covered 4.87% of terrestrial area in 2020, wit...

摘要:Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (AGPCRs) regulate essential physiological processes through interactions between their ectodomains and adjacent cell surface proteins or extracellular matrix components (ECM). AGPCRs distinctively arrive at the plasma membrane as self-cleaved holoreceptors with noncovalently associated N-terminal (NTF) and C-terminal fragments (CTF). Canonical AGPCR signaling proceeds in three sequential steps; NTF adhesive domains bind to ligands, extracellular shear force...

摘要:MutS and MutL proteins and their eukaryotic homologs have important functions in DNA metabolism. MutL beta (MLH1-PMS1 heterodimer) is a poorly understood eukaryotic MutL complex. Recent genetic studies have implicated MutL beta in the process of expansion of the short, tandem DNA repeat tracts that is responsible for the repeat expansion diseases. The function of MutL beta and the mechanism of MutL beta-dependent DNA expansions have not been established. We show here that MutL beta promotes Mu...

摘要:Cardiotoxicity is a dose-limiting complication of doxorubicin (DOX) chemotherapy, yet the molecular mechanisms governing the transition from acute stress to terminal heart failure remain incompletely defined. Here, we identify Protein Phosphatase 1 Regulatory Subunit 3G (PPP1R3G) as a central regulator of a RIPK1-ZBP1 signaling axis that drives DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. We demonstrate that DOX initiates a biphasic death program. Initially, DOX triggers p38-mediated inhibitory phosphorylation...

摘要:Anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) antibody therapy is now widely used in various cancers. However, the role of the antibody Fc region in PD-1 directed immunotherapy is not well understood. Preclinical studies commonly use species-mismatched rat anti-mouse antibodies, which may not accurately reflect antibody-Fc gamma receptor (Fc gamma R) interactions. Here, we used mouse anti-mouse PD-1 antibodies to investigate how the Fc region influences therapeutic efficacy for enhancing CD8 T cell resp...
