Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDecoding Lung Cancer: PLAU as a Critical Driver and Diagnostic MarkerStanley Cho, Min Gyeong KimLung cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, and understanding its underlying molecular mechanisms is critical for developing targeted therapies. We developed a novel tool called the Transcriptome-TCGA Integration (TTI), which combines in vitro transcriptome data with clinical datasets from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). TTI allows for the identification of key genes and pathways involved in lung cancer, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2026 · 1,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicroarray Analysis of Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Responses to Bacterial LipopolysaccharideJoe Minta James, J. Yun, Sandy Der, Shikha RanaAccumulating evidence suggest a causal role of bacterial and viral infections in atherogenesis. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to stimulate resting vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) with the production of inflammatory cytokines and modulation of quiescent cells to the proliferative and synthetic phenotype. To comprehensively identify biologically important genes associated with LPS-induced SMC phenotype modulation, we compared the transcriptomes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,994 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Analysis of Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Responses in Rice Resisting False SmutYanmin Yu, Haiying Liu, Hongtao Wu et al.Rice false smut, caused by Ustilaginoidea virens, is an important fungal disease that reduces both grain yield and quality. To dissect the molecular basis of resistance, we combined transcriptome sequencing and metabolite profiling in resistant and susceptible rice cultivars. Transcriptome sequencing revealed more than 8,500 genes with altered expression patterns after infection, while metabolite profiling detected over 700 significantly changed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 27 Aug 2026 · 1,057 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSalt Tolerance and Cultivation Challenges of Jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis): A ReviewHeba Allah Adel MohassebJojoba is considered to be salt tolerant, but little is known about the extent of its tolerance and the relative influence on ion uptake and ethylene production and other factors are affecting the mode of actions of jojoba salt tolerant. According to many research has done before including our article about the glyoxalase I gene from jojoba which exhibits moderate … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2025 · 3,314 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAmerican Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences: Ten Years LaterMarco LandiTen years after the first issue, the American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences (AJABS) continued to flourish, a clear indication of the validity of Science Publications project. Many scientists have contributed in this first decade to AJABS editorial life and to date more than 500 papers have been published with an encouraging rate of 0.73 cites per doc.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCloning and Functional Analysis of tri14 in Trichoderma brevicompactumXu-Ping Shentu, Xiao-Feng Yuan, Wei-Ping Liu et al.Trichodermin, one of the trichothecenes, is a potential antifungal antibiotic and a protein synthesis inhibitor. Trichodermin is synthesized mainly by Trichoderma brevicompactum, but the biosynthetic pathway has yet been completely elucidated. Our earlier transcriptome assay on the trichodermin synthesis in T. brevicompactum 0248 identified a unique tri14 transcript, designated Tbtri14, that was co-regulated with other tri cluster genes. However, the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2015 · 7,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonocytes and their Role in Human Immunodeficiency Virus PathogenesisTara Sassé, Jingqin Wu, Li Zhou, Nitin K. SaksenaMonocytes play several significant immunological roles during HIV infection. The phenotypic pliability and the cellular differentiation ability monocytes possess are crucial to the ways they combat infections and control inflammatory processes. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive snapshot of the importance of monocytes in HIV-1 infection and pathogenesis. Moreover, this review also provides newly emerging data … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 8,018 accessesView PDFCite
