“…The treatment of 6.4 × 105 CFU/g had the best promoting effect on the morphology of melon seedlings, and the plant height, stem diameter, leaf area, fresh weight of whole plant, dry weight of whole plant, root shoot ratio, and strong seedling index of melon seedlings increased by 90.39, 46.30, 37.55, 81.35, 100.62, 51.47, and 240.00%, respectively, compared with CK. The results showed that different amounts of T. viride agents could improve physiological and biochemical indices of melon leaves during the fruiting stage; the treatment of 6.4 × 105 CFU/g was the most effective; chlorophyll content, nitrate nitrogen content, sucrose content, reducing sugar content, free proline content, nitrate reductase (NR) activity, peroxidase (POD) activity, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of melon leaves increased at 30 days after melon pollination. …”

The Identification of FN1 as an Early Diagnostic Marker for Recurrent Abortion by Single-Exosome Profiling by Wang C, Lu Z, She G, Chen K, Zhou H, Zhan X, Yu H, Pi L, Zuo L, Che D

“…After PBA treatment, samples were analyzed for single exosomes, and exosomes from each group were compared using volcano plots, dot plots, and ROC curves.Results: By intersecting all significantly differentially expressed genes obtained from comparisons between the normal pregnancy control group and the recurrent abortion group, including the RA before abortion, RA after abortion, and RA non-pregnancy groups, we identified seven shared differential genes: FN1, APIPOQ, CDH13, DSG1, CLDN4, CD36, and ULBP3. …”
