Summary: Plants must respond efficiently to environmental stressors in order to maintain homeostasis and enhance their fitness. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a critical role in this process and are linked to the function of plant microbiota and plant-growth-promoting microbes. This article provides a synthesis of recent findings on the roles of ROS in plant development, highlighting the connection between plant microbiome functioning and ROS regulation for both basic and applied research aims.

Summary: Hyaluronan (HA) is a natural compound that is found on the cell surface and tissue extracellular matrix. It is synthesized by enzymes and degraded by other substances. HA has different effects on the body depending on its molecular weight, with high molecular weight HA being anti-inflammatory and low molecular weight HA being pro-inflammatory. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can degrade HA and affect vascular integrity, while HA can also play a role in wound healing. Understanding the interactions between ROS and HA is an important research topic.

Summary: Environmental stress produces reactive oxygen species that damage cells, leading to decreased food productivity. However, the use of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPR) in agriculture can mitigate the detrimental effects of biotic and abiotic stresses. PGPR improves nutrient absorption, modulates hormone levels, and enhances stress tolerance, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional farming practices. Understanding the evolutionary and ecological relationships between plants and their microbiomes is crucial for strengthening traditional agricultural techniques.

Summary: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are crucial regulators in both plant and human cells, serving as messengers in multiple pathways. While they play a beneficial role in growth and development, excessive ROS can cause oxidative stress and damage cellular functions. This review highlights the current research and mechanisms of ROS in both kingdoms, emphasizing their interactions with other substances and proposing potential opportunities for novel therapeutic strategies and agricultural advancements.

Summary: Global warming is the main cause of stresses that negatively impact plant growth and productivity. Various stresses, such as drought, low temperature, pathogen attack, high temperature, and salinity, reduce plant growth and development. However, plants have developed systems, including anthocyanins, to tolerate and resist these stresses, thereby promoting plant growth and development.

Summary: Global climate change and associated stresses affect plant growth and development, with increased ROS production contributing to cell damage. However, the accumulation of GABA can improve plant tolerance to drought and hypoxia. Genetic manipulation of GABA metabolism and receptors shows positive relationships between GABA levels and stress tolerance.

Summary: Plant responses to single and combined stresses involve complex signalling pathways. Plants can coordinate genome-wide transcriptional reprogramming and display unique transcriptional responses to a combination of stresses. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, as well as redox signals, play key roles in perceiving different stress factors and regulating plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses.

Summary: ROS play a vital role in physiological and pathological processes, and research on regulating ROS for disease treatments has gained wide attention. Advances in nanotechnology have led to the development of numerous nanomaterials with the ability to regulate ROS, aiming to find new and effective ROS-related nanotherapeutic modalities. Despite significant progress in ROS-based nanomedicines, there is a need to address fundamental principles for designing ROS-associated nanomedicines to minimize gaps in biomedical applications. This review summarizes current progress in ROS-associated nanomedicines in disease treatments and presents key principles for their design. Future perspectives in the development of ROS-associated nanomedicines are also discussed.

Summary: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) play crucial roles in human life, but overproduction can lead to cell damage and diseases. Researchers have developed fluorescent and luminescent probes based on metal-coordinated systems to detect and image these active species, providing valuable tools for studying their roles in signaling and pathology.

Summary: Applying reactive polymer materials sensitive to biological stimuli has attracted extensive research interest. The application of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive polymers as drug-delivery systems in organisms has received much attention due to the special physiological effects of ROS on tumors or inflammation. The research progress of ROS-responsive polymers and their application in recent years were summarized and analyzed in this paper. From the perspective of nanoparticle drug delivery systems, multi-responsive delivery systems, and ROS-responsive hydrogels, the future development trends in this field were discussed.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of elicitin oligomeric structures on tobacco plant defense responses, revealing that covalently cross-linking beta-CRYDIM impaired its capacity to induce the hypersensitive response and resistance. Furthermore, the C-terminal domain of elicitins from other ELI clades was found to play a role in stabilizing their oligomeric structures.

Summary: This article reviews recent advances in biotechnological approaches for improving the tolerance of protein legumes to abiotic stresses such as drought, high salinity, heat and cold, and heavy metal stress. In addition to improvements obtained mainly through transgenesis, the application of tools such as CRISPR/Cas and RNA interference in legumes in the context of abiotic stress tolerance is also discussed, along with a suggested path for gene control in legume plants, organs, or cells by these tools. Promising molecular targets, perspectives, and future directions for enhancing abiotic stress tolerance are also discussed.

Summary: The study assessed the structural conservation of WEE1 protein in the plant kingdom, particularly focusing on legume crops, and found general conservation of WEE1 proteins. However, structural differences, such as substitutions at the entrance of the catalytic pocket, may challenge the specificity of plant WEE1 compared to human WEE1, suggesting potential differences in cell regulation processes between plants and humans.

Summary: Snow algae blooms in melting snowfields are poorly understood in terms of their biology, biogeography, and species diversity. This study investigated eight isolates from red snow in northern Norway using morphology and genetic markers. Six isolates were assigned to known species, while two isolates were potentially new species. Further experiments revealed differences in growth rate and fatty acid profiles among strains, as well as the accumulation of lipids under physiological stress. This study provides new insights into the biodiversity and biogeography of snow algae, as well as their physiological traits and ecological properties.
