Researchers led by Prof. TU Yiheng from the Institute of Psychology, in collaboration with international experts, have found that individuals suffering from chronic musculoskeletal pain may face a higher high risk of brain aging.
Researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden and Anhui University provided the first quantification of the relative explanations of six factors that have been commonly considered to be associated with the interspecific variation in seed coat ratio, highlighting the important role of seed desiccation response and seed dormancy in explaining interspecific variation in the seed coat ratio.
A research team led by Prof. XU Pingyong from the Institute of Biophysics introduced the first negative regulator of NOX4 translation, the pivotal factor EI24. They uncovered the molecular mechanism by which EI24 precisely regulates H2O2 production by controlling NOX4 translation, and its implications for maintaining the redox equilibrium of pancreatic beta cells and insulin synthesis.
Focusing on five beaked Pedicularis species within the community that do not produce nectar and their three primary pollinating bumblebees, researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences conducted a five-year field experiment to investigate in depth the factors that influence bumblebee flower-visiting preferences.
Researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden investigated the differences in flower water use strategies between basal angiosperms and derived groups (monocots and dicots).
A research team led by Prof. ZHAO Yan from the Institute of Biophysics has revealed three different conformations of the full-length wild-type human GlyT1 transporter, firstly providing the elucidation of substrate recognition and the mechanism by which three anti-schizophrenia drug candidates selectively inhibit GlyT1.
