The anti-angiogenic compound dimethyl fumarate inhibits the serine synthesis pathway and increases glycolysis in endothelial cells

This study shows dimethyl fumarate inhibits serine synthesis and increases glycolysis in endothelial cells, potentially explaining its anti-angiogenic effects.

Arabidopsis thaliana Zn2+-efflux ATPases HMA2 and HMA4 are required for resistance to the necrotrophic fungus Plectosphaerella cucumerina BMM

This study shows that HMA2 and HMA4 zinc efflux ATPases in Arabidopsis are critical for resistance to the necrotrophic fungus PcBMM, with zinc accumulation and defense hormone pathways playing a key role.

Genome-wide association analysis of dementia and its clinical endophenotypes reveal novel loci associated with Alzheimer disease and three causality networks of AD: the GR@ACE project.

The paper performs a genome-wide association study of dementia and its endophenotypes, identifying novel loci and causal networks related to Alzheimer's disease.

Do Arabidopsis Squamosa promoter binding Protein-Like genes act together in plant acclimation to copper or zinc deficiency?

This study investigates whether SPL7, SPL1, and SPL12 in Arabidopsis function together in acclimation to Cu or Zn deficiency, finding SPL7 is involved in Cu deficiency responses but SPL1 and SPL12 are not, and Zn deficiency responses are independent of SPL7.
