Balancing the solar irradiance needs: optimising growth in sphagnum palustre through tailored UV-B effects by JiaYue Sun, Ling Xu, Lian Liu, BeiBei Huang, XingYu Liu, JunFeng Xu, Lin Wu

“…Our findings revealed that the height of Sphagnum palustre increased the most in the microhabitats (Juncus community) with the weakest UV-B radiation, however the capitate branch area and biomass of Sphagnum palustre were highest under the Fern community, where UV-B radiation was attenuated by 50% during the summer. In the laboratory, we established four levels of UV-B radiation treatments: 0 MJ/m2/d (control group, no UV-B radiation), 0.2 MJ/m2/d (low UV-B radiation), 0.4 MJ/m2/d (middle UV-B radiation), and 0.8 MJ/m2/d (high UV-B radiation). …”

Molecular switch of the dendrite-to-spine transport of TDP-43/FMRP-bound neuronal mRNAs and its impairment in ASD by Pritha Majumder, Biswanath Chatterjee, Khadiza Akter, Asmar Ahsan, Su Jie Tan, Chi-Chen Huang, Jen-Fei Chu, Che-Kun James Shen

“…Rac1 mRNA thus enters the spines for translational reactivation and increases the mature spine density. In contrast, during mGluR1-mediated neuronal LTD, FMRP (S499) remains phosphorylated and the TDP-43/Rac1 mRNA complex, being associated with kinesin 1-FMRP/cortactin/drebrin, enters the spines owing to Ca2+-dependent microtubule invasion into spines, but without translational reactivation. …”
