WOX11-mediated adventitious lateral root formation modulates tolerance of Arabidopsis to cyst nematode infections

This study shows that WOX11-mediated adventitious lateral root formation in Arabidopsis helps compensate for nematode-induced primary root growth inhibition, enhancing tolerance to cyst nematode infections.

Design, construction and optimization of formaldehyde growth biosensors with broad application in Biotechnology

This paper designs and optimizes formaldehyde-detecting E. coli biosensors with broad applications in biotechnology and environmental monitoring.

Cross-species comparison of pregnancy-induced GDF15

This study compares GDF15 expression during pregnancy across species, finding significant differences in plasma levels and expression between humans/macacaques and rodents.

Bronchoalveolar lavage affects thorax computed tomography of healthy and SARS-CoV-2 infected rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta)

This study shows that bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) temporarily affects thorax CT scans in SARS-CoV-2 infected rhesus macaques, with effects lasting beyond 24 hours.

Topoisomerase 1 inhibition therapy protects against SARS-CoV-2-induced inflammation and death in animal models.

This study shows that Top1 inhibition with Topotecan reduces SARS-CoV-2-induced inflammation and mortality in animal models.

The germline mutational process in rhesus macaque and its implications for phylogenetic dating

The paper estimates the germline mutation rate in rhesus macaques and finds paternal age correlation, male contribution dominance, and divergence time implications for primate phylogeny.

GM-CSF negatively regulates early IL-10 mediated responses

This study shows GM-CSF inhibits IL-10 responses in dendritic cells and macrophages by impairing SOCS3 expression and early TNF suppression, without affecting STAT3 activation.
