Genome-wide profiling of microRNAs reveals novel insights into the interactions between H9N2 avian influenza virus and avian dendritic cells
The antigen-presenting ability of dendritic cells (DCs) plays an important and irreplaceable role in recognising and clearing viruses. Antiviral responses must rapidly defend against infection while minimising...

Open AccessTranscriptome-wide analysis of chromium-stress responsive microRNAs to explore miRNA-mediated regulatory networks in radish (Raphanus sativus L.)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that play pivotal roles in plant growth, development and stress response. Chromium (Cr) is one of common environmental contaminants possessing potential health hazar...

Open AccessIdentification of novel and salt-responsive miRNAs to explore miRNA-mediated regulatory network of salt stress response in radish (Raphanus sativus L.)
Salt stress is one of the most representative abiotic stresses that severely affect plant growth and development. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are well known for their significant involvement in plant responses to abiot...

Immunostimulatory and anti-tumor activity of a water-soluble polysaccharide from Phellinus baumii mycelia
A 17-kDa water-soluble polysaccharide (PB) was isolated and purified from Phellinus baumii using the DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and LPLC-Sephadex G-75 methods. Exposure of RAW264.7 macrophages to PB resulted in a signifi...
