Title: Role of EIN2-mediated ethylene signaling in regulating petal senescence, abscission, reproductive development, and hormonal crosstalk in tobacco.

Silencing NtEIN2 in tobacco plants affects petal senescence, pod and seed development, and defense against pathogens. NtEIN2 plays a crucial role in various developmental and physiological processes, particularly in petal senescence.

15, 16-Dihydrotanshinone I protects against ischemic stroke by inhibiting ferroptosis via the activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2.

The study investigated the effects of DHT on ischemic stroke. DHT is a naturally occurring compound extracted from Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, that has various pharmacological effects. The study found that DHT has a protective effect against ischemic stroke by increasing Nrf2 expression. Nrf2 is a key regulator of antioxidative stress responses and is associated with ferroptosis inhibition, a process involved in stroke. These findings suggest that DHT has therapeutic potential for the treatment of ischemic stroke.
