A very long chain fatty acid responsive transcription factor, MYB93, regulates lateral root development in Arabidopsis

The paper identifies MYB93 as a VLCFA-responsive transcription factor that regulates lateral root development in Arabidopsis by modulating cell wall organization gene expression.

AT-hook DNA-binding motif-containing protein one knockdown downregulates EWS-FLI1 transcriptional activity in Ewings sarcoma cells

The paper identifies AHDC1 as a protein interacting with EWS-FLI1 in Ewing's sarcoma and shows its knockdown reduces cell growth and transcriptional activity.

m6A demethylase ALKBH5 promotes tumor cell proliferation by destabilizing IGF2BPs target genes and worsens the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer

MCM10 compensates for Myc-induced DNA replication stress in breast cancer stem-like cells

This study shows that MCM10 compensates for c-Myc-induced DNA replication stress in breast cancer stem-like cells, promoting genome duplication and drug resistance.

Shikonin induces odontoblastic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells via AKT-mTOR signaling in the presence of CD44

This study shows that shikonin induces odontoblastic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells through the AKT-mTOR pathway and CD44, confirming CD44's necessity for this process.

Collaborative environmental DNA sampling from petal surfaces of flowering cherry Cerasus ×- yedoensis 'Somei-yoshino' across the Japanese archipelago

The paper collects and analyzes environmental DNA from petal surfaces of cherry trees across Japan, showing rapid DNA attachment and the presence of other plant DNA, supporting the use of petals for studying environmental DNA dynamics.
