Effects of nano urea on growth and gene expression of Arabidopsis thaliana in hydroponics

This study shows that nano urea enhances biomass and chlorophyll content in Arabidopsis thaliana hydroponics compared to bulk urea, with differential gene expression patterns.

Peribacillus frigoritolerans T7-IITJ, a potential biofertilizer, induces plant growth-promotinggenes of Arabidopsis thaliana

This study identifies Peribacillus frigoritolerans T7-IITJ as a biofertilizer that promotes plant growth and drought tolerance by inducing specific genes in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Incorporation of collagen into Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Burkholderia pseudomallei biofilms enhances their elasticity and resistance against phagocytic clearance

This study shows that incorporating collagen into biofilms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Burkholderia pseudomallei increases their elasticity and resistance to phagocytosis.

Phagosomal RNA sensing through TLR8 controls susceptibility to tuberculosis

The paper identifies TLR8 as a key regulator of intracellular killing of Mtb, showing that phagosomal RNA sensing through TLR8 controls susceptibility to tuberculosis and reveals a druggable pathway for host-directed therapy.

Human anelloviruses produced by recombinant expression of synthetic genomes.

This paper demonstrates the production of human anelloviruses in vitro using synthetic genomes in MOLT-4 cells, showing infectivity in mice and enabling further virology studies.

Ex vivo and in vivo evidence that cigarette smoke-exposed T regulatory cells impair host immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

This study shows that cigarette smoke-exposed T regulatory cells impair macrophage control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in vitro and in vivo.

Successive remodeling of IgG glycans using a solid-phase enzymatic platform

This study evaluates over 30 enzymes for glycoengineering immobilized IgG, demonstrating a solid-phase platform for efficient glycan remodeling and harmonization into complex-type N-glycoforms with high yield and retained binding affinity.

A novel positive feedback mechanism of ABI5 phosphorylation by mitogen activated protein kinase-3 regulates ABA signaling in Arabidopsis

This study identifies a positive feedback loop where ABI5 phosphorylation by MAP kinase-3 modulates ABA signaling in Arabidopsis, affecting seed germination and drought tolerance.
