A research team led by Prof. LI Yu from the Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the collaborators, identified the transcription factor CREB/ATF bZIP (CREBZF) as an important mediator of glucose effects in adipose tissue.
A research team led by Prof. CAO Xiaofeng from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology has identified the crucial role of the acyl carrier protein OsMTACP2 in promoting anther and pollen grain development at low temperatures, thereby positively regulating cold tolerance at the booting stage.
In a study published in Journal of Systematics and Evolution, researchers from Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) and their collaborators examined Chinese Cassytha samples currently placed into C. filiformis as well as several related members of the racemose group to investigate the phylogenetic and evolutionary history of the genus in the region.
Researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden selected 30 higher-order rivers for soil, sediment, and water sampling along a latitudinal gradient in eastern China to calculate EMF using 18 variables related to nitrogen cycling, nutrient pool, plant productivity, and water quality. Meanwhile, the microbial diversity and co-occurrence network were also analyzed.
A team led by Prof. GAO Dong and Prof. CHEN Luonan from the Center for Excellence in Molecular Cell Science, Shanghai Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the collaborators, deeply explored the role of androgens in shaping sex differences at the molecular and cellular levels.
A research group led by Prof. WU Chenxi from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences provided new insights into the environmental behavior of phthalates in plastics from the perspective of biofilm on plastic surfaces.
