COMPONENTS OF ARABIDOPSIS DEFENSE- AND ETHYLENE-SIGNALING PATHWAYS REGULATE SUSCEPTIBILITY TO CAULIFLOWER MOSAIC VIRUS BY RESTRICTING LONG-DISTANCE MOVEMENT

We analyzed the susceptibility of Arabidopsis mutants with defects in salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA)/ethylene (ET) signaling to infection by Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV).Mutants cpr1-1 and cpr5-2, in which SA-dependent defense signaling is activated constitutively, were substantially more resistant than the wild type to systemic infe

Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare hematologic neoplasm (less than 1% of primary cutaneous lymphomas and acute leukemia) with a highly aggressive clinical course and frequent skin, bone marrow and central nervous system (CNS) involvement.Despite a frequent initial response to chemotherapy, relapses with eventual leukemic

The intestinal microbiota is a real ecosystem composed of several bacterial species and a very huge amount of strains that through their metabolic activities play a crucial role in the development and performance of the immune system and other functions.Microbiota modulation by probiotics establishes a new era into the pharmaceutical Humidity Cover

IntroductionSeals, protected wild marine mammals, are widely found in waters around the world.However, rising concerns about their increasing numbers in some areas have led to potential worries regarding microbiological contamination of coastal areas by their feces, which could impact bathing and shellfish-harvesting activities.To the best of our k
