Cryptomeria fortunei growth and development are usually affected by low temperatures. Despite the evergreen nature of this species, most needles turn yellowish-brown in cold winters. The underlying discoloration mechanisms that cause this phenomenon in response to cold acclimation remain...
Glucose uptake is essential for cancer glycolysis and is involved in non-shivering thermogenesis of adipose tissues. Most cancers use glycolysis to harness energy for their infinite growth, invasion and metastasis. Activation of thermogenic metabolism in brown adipose tissue (BAT) by cold an...
Temperature is a critical environmental factor influencing fish physiology. Eleutheronema tetradactylum is an economically important warm-water species, but its response to long-term cold stress remains unclear. In this study, we exposed juvenile fish to 18 °C for 7 and 14 days and investigated h...
Telenomus remus, an egg parasitoid capable of penetrating multi-layered egg masses, has emerged as a promising candidate for the biological control of Spodoptera frugiperda. Nevertheless, our prior investigations have uncovered that its limited cold tolerance represents a critical bottleneck in m...
Ambient temperature profoundly influences organismal metabolism, physiology, and disease. While cold exposure is a well-recognized risk factor for the onset of myocardial infarction (MI), its impact on the injured heart after MI remains unexplored. Here,&nb...
Cold stress negatively affects maize (Zea mays L.) growth, development and yield. Metabolic adjustments contribute to the adaptation of maize under cold stress. We show here that the transcription factor INDUCER OF CBF EXPRESSION 1 (ZmICE1) plays a prominent role in reprogramming amino a...
