PSMB10 maintains the stemness of chemotherapeutic drug-resistant leukemia cells by inhibiting senescence and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-mediated killing in a ubiquitinated degradation... by Xiao Ma, Yingnan Li, Di Wang, Jialan Niu, Qian Li, Ying Chen, Mengyuan Wang, Jin Wen, Chenxi Liao, Nan Wang, Xiaolan Zhang, Jiwei Chang, Jiayi Yang, Lei Li, Jing Zou, Danyue Peng, Lingbo Liu

“…The genetic inactivation of PSMB10 resulted in increased senescence and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) killing, as well as increased intracellular drug concentrations and drug-induced cellular senescence in different types of human AML cells, which also impeded human and murine leukemia initiation and stemness maintenance in vivo with a 19-fold decrease in the frequency of human LSCs and a 7.6-fold decrease of drug-resistant mouse LSCs, while normal hematopoietic cells remained unaffected. …”

Computational analysis of spliced leader trans-splicing in the regenerative flatworm <i>Macrostomum lignano</i> reveals its prevalence in conserved and stem cell related genes by K. V. Ustyantsev, E. V. Berezikov

“…However, only a fraction of trans-spliced genes reside in operons, suggesting that SL trans-splicing must also have some other, less understood functions. Regenerative flatworms are informative model organisms which hold the keys to understand the mechanism of stem cell regulation and specialization during regeneration and homeostasis. …”

Optimization of Multi-Source Remote Sensing Soil Salinity Estimation Based on Different Salinization Degrees by Huifang Chen, Jingwei Wu, Chi Xu

“…Specifically, this study integrated in situ hyperspectral data and satellite multispectral data using spectral response functions. Subsequently, machine learning methods such as random forest (RF), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), support vector machine (SVM), and multiple linear regression (MLR) were employed, in combination with sensitive spectral indices, to develop a multi-source remote sensing soil salinity estimation model optimized for different salinization degrees (mild or lower salinization vs. moderate or higher salinization). …”
