Coordinated Regulation of Iron-Acquisition Genes and Citrate Biosynthesis Drives Seasonal Iron Deficiency Adaptation in ‘Yali’ Pears (<i>Pyrus bretschneideri</i> Rehd.) by Shuilin Liu, Ming Zhang, Huiying Wang, Yue Xu, Chaodie Wen, Jianguang Zhang, Yuxing Zhang, Haiyan Shi

“…Results demonstrated that moderate iron deficiency upregulated <i>PbFRO2</i> (2.86–7.09-fold), enhanced root ferric reductase (FCR) activity, and promoted Fe³⁺ reduction and Fe²⁺ transport. In contrast, severe deficiency suppressed the expression of these genes and reduced photosynthetic efficiency. …”

Overview of Oncology: Drug-Induced Cardiac Toxicity by Nilima Rajpal Kundnani, Vincenzo Passini, Iulia Stefania Carlogea, Patrick Dumitrescu, Vlad Meche, Roxana Buzas, Daniel Marius Duda-Seiman

“…Overall, these complications fall under the term “drug induced cardiotoxicity”, mainly due to chemotherapy drugs being specifically toxic to the heart, causing a decrease in the heart’s capacity to pump blood efficiently and leading to a reduction in the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and subsequently possibly leading to heart failure. …”

The effects of silver nitrate on Mycobacterium abscessus biofilms in a simulated antimicrobial showerhead environment by Sarah Pitell, Cheolwoon Woo, Jill Millstone, Jill Millstone, Jill Millstone, Janet Stout, Janet Stout, Leanne Gilbertson, Sarah-Jane Haig, Sarah-Jane Haig

“…Silver concentrations that were more appropriate for drinking water applications resulting in limited reduction in viable M. abscessus. Additionally, transcriptomic analysis revealed that genes related to stress survival were upregulated in all experimental conditions: genes related to flavoprotein, chaperone, and protease synthesis, ribosome synthesis, and cysteine and methionine metabolism were upregulated in the lower dose condition, and peptidoglycan synthesis and antioxidant production were upregulated in the higher silver dose condition. …”

The Aerobic Denitrification Characteristics of a Halophilic <i>Marinobacter</i> sp. Strain and Its Application in a Full-Scale Fly Ash-Washing Wastewater Treatment Plant by Mengyang Guo, Kai Liu, Hongfei Wang, Yilin Song, Yingying Li, Weijin Zhang, Jian Gao, Mingjun Liao

“…The main results were as follows: (1) Based on the integration of whole-genome data, it is preliminarily hypothesized that the strain possesses complete nitrogen metabolism pathways, including denitrification, a dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA), and ammonium assimilation, as well as the following three synergistic strategies through which to counter hyperosmotic stress: inorganic ion homeostasis, organic osmolyte accumulation, and structural adaptations. (2) The strain demonstrated effective nitrogen removal under aerobic, anaerobic, and saline conditions (3–9%). (3) When applied in a full-scale engineering system treating saline fly ash-washing wastewater, it improved nitrate nitrogen (NO₃⁻-N), total nitrogen (TN), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiencies by 31.92%, 25.19%, and 31.8%, respectively. …”
