This study found that Plant Elicitor Peptides enhance root hair growth through a mechanism independent of their known receptors, with PROPEP2 playing a key role in this process by influencing gene expression related to root hair formation.

In this study, the ethanol extract of Tridax procumbens leaves exhibited antimicrobial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with specific active compounds identified through GC-MS analysis that may contribute to its therapeutic potential.

This review explores plant-derived phytochemicals, such as phytosterols, polyphenols, and fatty acids, for their potential use as alternative treatments for prostate cancer, emphasizing their effects on 5-alpha-Reductase enzyme isozymes. It reports no new clinical results.

This study found that root hair growth in Arabidopsis thaliana is stimulated by pathogenic Pseudomonas strains similarly to beneficial rhizobacteria, relying on ethylene signaling and an efficient exocyst-dependent secretory process.

This study suggests that iron influences auxin signaling through vesicle trafficking, particularly affecting PIN2 recycling, which may play a role in phosphate starvation-induced root hair growth in Arabidopsis.

This study found that humulen, a phytoconstituent of Cyperus Rotundus Linn., showed the highest binding affinity in molecular docking with the 5 α reductase enzyme, suggesting potential anti-androgenic effects for hirsutism treatment.

This study identified a key Arabidopsis thaliana gene, TIP1, whose product is involved in S-acylation crucial for normal plant cell growth, particularly affecting root hair development.

In this study, partially purified apple polyphenols were found to inhibit preadipocyte differentiation in mouse cells by reducing GPDH activity and triglyceride accumulation.
