Zhuang H et. al. (February 2024). STAMENLESS1 activates SUPERWOMAN 1 and FLORAL ORGAN NUMBER 1 to control floral organ identities and meristem fate in rice Plant J.
The article investigates the regulatory role of STAMENLESS1 (SL1) in floral organ identities and meristem fate in rice.

Hou J et. al. (January 2024). Unveiling the mechanism of broad-spectrum blast resistance in rice: The collaborative role of transcription factor OsGRAS30 and histone deacetylase OsHDAC1 Plant Biotechnol J.
The article explores the mechanism behind broad-spectrum blast resistance in rice, highlighting the collaborative action of transcription factor OsGRAS30 and histone deacetylase OsHDAC1. Knockdown of OsHDAC1 boosts blast resistance without altering plant growth, while overexpression of OsHDAC1 heightens susceptibility to Magnaporthe oryzae. This research elucidates how OsGRAS30 inhibits OsHDAC1, elevating histone H3K27ac levels and fortifying blast resistance, offering insights into potential strategies for bolstering crop defense against blast disease.

Caldiran F et. al. (February 2024). Epigenetic insights into Familial Mediterranean Fever: Increased RGS10 expression and histone modifications accompanies inflammation in familial Mediterranean fever disease Gene. 906:148222.
The article investigates the epigenetic regulation of Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) and its association with inflammation. RGS10, an anti-inflammatory gene, exhibits decreased expression due to DNA hypermethylation during FMF attacks, while increased levels of specific histone modifications accompany FMF episodes, suggesting significant epigenetic alterations contributing to disease pathogenesis. This research sheds light on the complex interplay between epigenetic mechanisms, immune responses, and FMF, providing potential avenues for therapeutic interventions targeting histone modifications.

Jiang L et. al. (February 2024). METTL3-m6A-SIRT1 axis affects autophagic flux contributing to PM2.5-induced inhibition of testosterone production in Leydig cells Sci Total Environ. :170701.
The study explores how long-term exposure to PM2.5 affects testosterone production in Leydig cells through the METTL3-m6A-SIRT1 axis and autophagic flux. In vivo and in vitro models revealed that PM2.5 exposure decreased testosterone levels, disrupted autophagy, and increased m6A modification and METTL3 expression, while knockdown of METTL3 restored autophagy and testosterone production. Activation of SIRT1, downstream of METTL3-m6A, enhanced autophagy and testosterone biosynthesis, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for PM2.5-induced male reproductive injury.
