Background
Long non‐coding RNAs (LncRNAs) have been demonstrated to associate with a variety of cancers. However, the mechanisms of LncRNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression are still not fully clarified.
Methods
LINC01608 expression level in HCC and adjacent normal tissues was detected by real‐time‐quantitively PCR (RT‐qPCR) in clinical samples and in situ hybridization (ISH) in tissue...
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER)‐plasma membrane (PM) contact sites (EPCSs) are structurally conserved in eukaryotes. The Arabidopsis ER‐anchored synaptotagmin 1 (SYT1), enriched in EPCSs, plays a critical role in plant abiotic stress tolerance. It has become clear that SYT1 interacts with PM to mediate ER‐PM connectivity. However, whether SYT1 performs additional functions at EPCSs remains unknown...
The rice immune receptor XA21 confers resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), and upon recognition of the RaxX21‐sY peptide produced by Xoo, XA21 activates the plant immune response. Here we screened 21 000 mutant plants expressing XA21 to identify components involved in this response, and reported here the identification of a rice mutant, sxi4, which is susceptible to Xoo. The sxi4 mutant...
