USP10 strikes down β-catenin by dual-wielding deubiquitinase activity and phase transition potential

This study identifies USP10 as a novel regulator of β-catenin through dual mechanisms involving deubiquitination and phase separation, with implications for cancer treatment.

Response of sugarcane rhizosphere soil fungal communities on a temporal gradient to changes in critical growth periods

This study examines how sugarcane rhizosphere fungal communities change over time, identifying key fungal genera and environmental drivers affecting their structure and disease risk.

5-aminolevulinic acid-photodynamic therapy ameliorates cutaneous granuloma by killing drug-resistant Mycobacterium marinum

This study shows that ALA-PDT kills drug-resistant M. marinum in vitro and in a mouse model, leading to recovery of cutaneous lesions and clinical improvement in two patients.

Citrus Huanglongbing is an immune-mediated disease that can be treated by mitigating reactive oxygen species triggered cell death of the phloem tissues caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus

This study shows citrus Huanglongbing is an immune-mediated disease caused by CLas, where ROS-induced cell death in phloem tissues can be mitigated by antioxidants and gibberellin, reducing disease symptoms.

Citrus vascular proteomics highlights the role of peroxidases and serine proteases during Huanglongbing disease progression

The paper uses proteomics to study citrus vascular responses to HLB, finding increased peroxidases and serine proteases during infection.

Extraordinary diversity of HLA class I gene expression in single cells contribute to the plasticity and adaptability of human immune system

The paper uses scRNA-seq to show that single cells from the same donor can express different HLA class I genotypes, revealing high allele-specific expression diversity in the immune system.
