Project description:Melatonin is a well-known agent that plays multiple roles in animals. Its possible function in plants is less clear. In the present study, we tested the effect of melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) on soybean growth and development. Both spraying of leaves and seed-coating with melatonin significantly promoted soybean growth as judged from leaf size and plant height. This enhancement was also observed in soybean production and their fatty acid content. Melatonin increased pod number, seed number and seed weight. However, the 100-seed weight was not influenced by melatonin application. Melatonin also improved soybean tolerance to salt and drought stresses. Transcriptome analysis revealed that melatonin up-regulated the expression of many genes and alleviated the inhibitory effects of salt stress on gene expressions. Further detailed analysis of the affected pathways documents that melatonin likely achieved its promotional roles in soybean through enhancement of genes involved in cell division, photosynthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, fatty acid biosynthesis and ascorbate metabolism. Our results demonstrate that melatonin has significant potential for improving of soybean growth and seed production. Further study should uncover more about the molecular mechanisms of melatoninM-bM-^@M-^Ys function in soybeans and other crops. Four different treatments were chosen, water, salt, 100M-BM-5M melatonin and salt plus 100M-BM-5M melatonin. The comparison of salt/melatonin-treated sample versus water-treated sample reveals salt or melatonin induced transcriptome changes. The comparison of melatonin plus salt treated sample versus salt-treated sample reveals melatonin induced changes when salt exists.

Project description:Melatonin, a natural phytohormone present in most plants, plays multiple roles in plant growth and stress responses. Although melatonin biosynthesis-related genes have been suggested to possess diverse biological functions, their roles and functional mechanisms in regulating rice grain yield remain largely unexplored. Here, we revealed that a rice caffeic acid O-methyltransferase (OsCOMT) gene is involved in melatonin biosynthesis through in vitro and in vivo evidences. Transgenic assays show OsCOMT significantly delays leaf senescence at the grain filling stage, and then improves photosynthesis efficiency. Further experimental and transcriptomic data suggest that OsCOMT inhibits the degradation of chlorophyll and chloroplast, which in turn delay leaf senescence. Histological analysis also reveals the role of OsCOMT in the development of vascular bundle system in rice. The levels of melatonin and cytokinin were significantly increased in the culm of OsCOMT-overexpression plant relative to those of the wild-type (WT). In the OsCOMT-overexpression line, the cytokinin-biosynthesizing genes were up-regulated and the cytokinin-degrading genes were down-regulated, thereby increasing the cytokinin levels compared with the WT. Thus, OsCOMT-mediated vascular patterning may result from the crosstalk between melatonin and cytokinin. More importantly, OsCOMT significantly increased grain number and yield production of rice in various background, including Nipponbare (NIP) and Suken118 (SK118). Our findings show novel insights into melatonin-mediated leaf senescence and vascular patterning, and provide a new strategy to enhance rice yield production.

Project description:Bipolar disorder (BD) is a psychiatric disorder in which the core feature is pathological disturbance in mood ranging from extreme elation (mania) to severe depression. Study has shown an aberrant pro-inflammatory status of monocytes/macrophages in mood disorders. Therefore, this study aimed at studying the monocyte compartment in Bipolar Disorder, by transcription profiling of CD14+ monocytes in patients and controls.
