Antagonistic functions of CTL1 and SUH1 mediate cell wall assembly in Arabidopsis by Nguyen Thi Thuy, Hyun‐Jung Kim, Suk‐Whan Hong

“…The mutation in SUH1 restored almost all examined ctl1hot2‐1 defects to nearly wild‐type levels or at least partially. SUH1 encodes a Golgi‐located type II membrane protein with glycosyltransferase (GT) activity, and its mutations lead to a reduction in cellulose content and hypersensitivity to cellulose biosynthesis inhibitors, although to a lesser extent than ctl1hot2‐1 mutation. …”

Quercetin Inhibits Pyroptosis in Diabetic Cardiomyopathy through the Nrf2 Pathway by Zhang Wei, Zhou Jing, Kang Pinfang, Shi Chao, Qian Shaohuan

“…Interestingly, ML385 prevented the beneficial effects of quercetin on diabetic cardiomyopathy, further indicating that the quercetin-mediated inhibition of pyroptosis requires the participation of the Nrf2 pathway. In conclusion, quercetin promoted the nuclear translocation of Nrf2, increased the expression of antioxidant factors in cells, and inhibited the progression of cell pyroptosis, thereby alleviating diabetic cardiomyopathy.…”
