Summary: This review summarizes the multi-functional enzymes plant aldehyde oxidases (AOs) which can oxidize abscisic aldehyde into ABA or indole acetaldehyde into IAA as the last step. AOs can be divided into four groups based on their biochemical and physiological functions. Besides their role in phytohormones biosynthesis and stress response, AOs could also involve in reactive oxygen species homeostasis, aldehyde detoxification and stress tolerance.

Summary: Hydrogen-rich water treatment delays senescence and maintains fruit quality in postharvest okras. The treatment increases levels of melatonin, gibberellin (GA), and indoleacetic acid (IAA), while decreasing abscisic acid (ABA) content. These changes are associated with the upregulation of melatonin biosynthetic genes and anabolic genes for GA and IAA, as well as the down-regulation of ABA biosynthetic genes and up-regulation of ABA degradative gene.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the adverse effects of 3-indoleacetic acid (IAA) on rats and the extent of recovery after withdrawal of IAA exposure. The results showed that exposure to a high concentration of IAA had negative impacts on hematological parameters, hepatorenal function, cardiac and skeletal muscles, as well as testes. Even after withdrawal of IAA, most of the adverse effects persisted.

Summary: The study found that the sensitivity to short-term acute UV-B doses in different varieties of quinoa is influenced by their parental lines and breeding time; UV-B sensitivity does not necessarily correlate with quinoa's geographical distribution; the role of flavonoids in the UV-B response seems to be different depending on varieties; moreover, changes in JA and SA correlate with UV-B tolerance, while the increase of ABA is mainly related to UV-B stress.

Summary: In this study, a colorimetric aptasensor platform was developed by integrating aptamer-based spherical nucleic acids (SNAs) and hybridization chain reaction (HCR) for exosome detection. The CD63-specific aptamer captured target exosomes, while SNAs with nucleolin-specific aptamer and trigger probe H1 amplified the signal through HCR. The proposed aptasensor achieved a low detection limit of 50 particles/μL and showed practicality in testing different clinical samples, suggesting its potential as an on-site test for liquid biopsy.

Summary: Salinity is a major limitation to crop production and poses a threat to agricultural sustainability and global food security. This study demonstrates that exogenous application of IAA and L-tryptophan can alleviate the negative effects of salt stress on potato growth, protein content, and antioxidant enzyme activities. Direct incorporation of IAA into the medium proves to be a more effective approach compared to pretreatment of nodal explants.

Summary: This study found that iron deficiency leads to chlorosis in pear leaves, while exogenous application of indoleacetic acid (IAA) can restore their green color and promote the accumulation of chlorophyll and iron ions. Furthermore, PbrSAUR72 was identified as a key negative regulator in auxin signaling and plays a role in the response to iron deficiency. Overexpression of PbrSAUR72 enhances plants' tolerance to iron deficiency and increases their ability to absorb iron ions. Moreover, PbrSAUR72 can inhibit the production of reactive oxygen species in response to iron deficiency.

Summary: In this study, the emission behaviors of three AIE ligands with tetraphenyl structures were investigated, and their ladder-shaped emission wavelength was found. By constructing a staff gauge from L0 to L3, different sensitization of Ln3+ ions was achieved, from sensitizing both Eu3+ and Tb3+ to sensitizing only Eu3+ and then to non-sensitization. The threshold value of 5000 cm-1 for complete sensitization was proposed based on the different optical behaviors and energy levels of Ln-MOFs. The coplanar degree of L1-L3 was proposed to explain their optical behaviors and different sensitization. Therefore, the connection among the energy levels, emission wavelength, and their effect on antenna effect for AIE ligands was revealed. L1-Eu MOF exhibited dual emission with a porous property and was used for ratiometric fluorescent detection and removal of F-.

Summary: Highly conjugated 2D-COFs show aggregation-caused quenching but conducive to aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) due to their viscous microenvironment. In this study, salicylaldehyde azine (SA) was formed for the first time through condensation between non-AIE monomers in a 2D azine COF (ACOF). A hollow ACOF (HACOF) with improved dispersibility and accessibility was achieved by growing the ACOF on a sacrificial template and digesting it under mild acidic conditions. The HACOF exhibited strong red emission, high quantum yield, and broad response range for sensing ammonia (NH3). The emission mechanism of HACOF was attributed to intramolecular hydrogen bonding, which could be quenched by NH3. This novel HACOF provides insights into structure-dependent emission and quenching mechanisms for functionalized AIE COFs.

Summary: To improve the ionic transport property of hydrophobic conjugated polymers used in organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs), hydrophilic side chains are often grafted onto the polymers. However, this modification decreases the charge transport ability. In this study, an ionic gel interfacial layer composed of gel matrix and ionic liquids is applied to enhance the ionic transport while maintaining the charge transport ability of the polymers. The proposed strategy enables the realization of OECTs with hydrophobic conjugated polymers and achieves high performance through tunable variations in the types and ratios of ionic gels.
