Article Abstract

L. () is a non-native invasive plant in Czech mountain regions, altering ecosystem structure and function in protected areas. L. () is a native species and a problematic weed in Czech meadows, while DC. () is characteristic of Fennoscandia and widespread in northern and central Europe. This study explores temperature-driven germination patterns in , , and and also focuses on potential differences across populations of . The hypothesis suggests that is not established in lowland areas due to temperature limitations during germination. A second experiment evaluates the influence of native and non-native localities on seed germination. The primary experiment was conducted at 6°C, 12°C, 18°C, 24°C, 29°C, and 35°C in a climate chamber, while the second experiment was performed at 24°C for 14 days. Contrary to expectations, exhibited the highest germination rate across all temperatures. In the second experiment, germination rates varied significantly, with a positive correlation between germination success and transition from Alpine to Czech localities. The highest and fastest germination was observed in seeds from the Krkonoše Mountains, where is an invasive plant species.

Background: Early-onset preeclampsia poses significant risks to maternal and fetal health, necessitating a deeper understanding of its molecular mechanisms and effective therapeutic strategies.

Methods: Utilizing data from genome-wide association study and Mendelian randomization analysis, we investigated the relationship between mitochondrial DNA copy number and preeclampsia. Transcriptome sequencing, in vitro experiments, and animal studies were conducted to explore the roles of SENP3 and SETD7 in preeclampsia pathogenesis.

Introduction: Drowsiness is a significant cause of crashes in the various transport industries, including automotive, aviation, and rail. Our previous study investigated the differential induction of drowsiness in drivers caused by specific whole-body vibration (WBV) frequency ranges, with an amplitude of 0.2 m/s r.

Intestinal dysmotility is a major complication that significantly impacts the prognosis of acute pancreatitis (AP). The neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) -expressing neurons within the enteric nervous system promote intestinal relaxation via the release of nitric oxide (NO). As the rate-limiting enzyme of NO synthesis, nNOS directly regulates NO production, thereby modulating intestinal motility.

UBQLN4 regulates seizures by promoting the proteasomal degradation of GluN2B.

Ubiquilin 4 (UBQLN4) is an important molecule that regulates protein degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. This study found that UBQLN4 expression is significantly reduced in a chronic epilepsy mouse model induced by kainic acid, primarily localized in neurons and widely distributed at excitatory post-synapses. Experiments involving adeno-associated virus-mediated overexpression or knockdown of UBQLN4 indicate that a reduction in UBQLN4 increases susceptibility to and severity of epilepsy, while its overexpression has a protective effect.

Toward a Robust Confirmation or Refutation of the Sterile-Neutrino Explanation of Short-Baseline Anomalies.

The sterile neutrino interpretation of the LSND and MiniBooNE neutrino anomalies is currently being tested at three liquid argon detectors: MicroBooNE, SBND, and ICARUS. It has been argued that a degeneracy between ν_{μ}→ν_{e} and ν_{e}→ν_{e} oscillations significantly degrades their sensitivity to sterile neutrinos. Through an independent study, we show two methods to eliminate this concern.
