Effect of temperature on the Bulinus globosus — Schistosoma haematobium system
Abstract Background Given that increase in temperature may alter host-parasite relationships, the anticipated rise in temperature due to global warming might change transmission... -
Activation of the EIF2AK4-EIF2A/eIF2α-ATF4 pathway triggers autophagy respons...
The intestinal mucosa of Crohn disease (CD) patients is abnormally colonized by adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC). Upon AIEC infection, autophagy is induced in host cells to... -
A novel transcription factor specifically regulates GH11 xylanase genes in Tr...
Abstract Background The filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei is widely utilized in industry for cellulase production, but its xylanase activity must be improved to enhance the... -
Genome-wide transcriptional adaptation to salt stress in Populus
Abstract Background Adaptation to abiotic stresses is crucial for the survival of perennial plants in a natural environment. However, very little is known about the underlying... -
