However, overexpression of Rb1 and Rb2 sharply decreased grain filling. A segregation ratio of green to purple was 151 observed in the F2 population from parents Minghui 63 and Xizang 2, which both had green leaf sheaths; these results demonstrate that dominant complementary interaction between OsC1 and Rb (Rb1 and Rb2) controls the purple leaf sheath. These findings systematically uncovered the genetic basis of leaf sheath color and provided alternative genes for breeding anthocyanin-rich rice.Local cancer invasion of tissue is a complex, multiscale process which plays an essential role in tumour progression. During the complex interaction between cancer cell population and the extracellular matrix (ECM), of key importance is the role played by both bulk two-scale dynamics of ECM fibres within collective movement of the tumour cells and the multiscale leading edge dynamics driven by proteolytic activity of the matrix-degrading enzymes (MDEs) that are secreted by the cancer cells. As these two multiscale subsystems share and contribute to the same tumour macro-dynamics, in this work we develop further the model introduced in Shuttleworth and Trucu (Bull Math Biol 812176-2219, 2019. https//doi.org/10.1007/s11538-019-00598-w) by exploring a new aspect of their interaction that occurs at the cell scale. Specifically, here we will focus on understanding the cell-scale cross talk between the micro-scale parts of these two multiscale subsystems which get to interact directly in the peritumoural region, with immediate consequences both for MDE micro-dynamics occurring at the leading edge of the tumour and for the cell-scale rearrangement of the naturally oriented ECM fibres in the peritumoural region, ultimately influencing the way tumour progresses in the surrounding tissue. check details To that end, we will propose a new modelling that captures the ECM fibres degradation not only at macro-scale in the bulk of the tumour but also explicitly in the micro-scale neighbourhood of the tumour interface as a consequence of the interactions with molecular fluxes of MDEs that exercise their spatial dynamics at the invasive edge of the tumour.Chronic right ventricular (RV) pacing has been associated with significant electrical and mechanical dyssynchrony leading to increased risk for recurrent heart failure hospitalizations and atrial arrhythmias. His bundle pacing (HBP) is an effective alternative to RV pacing as it is physiological and provides synchronized contraction of both ventricles. But there are limitations to HBP, which include lead stability, rise in threshold, early battery depletion and longer learning curve. Huang et al. recently reported a novel technique to directly capture the left bundle branch (LBB) by deep septal pacing. Subsequently, many studies have demonstrated the feasibility, safety and efficacy of left bundle branch pacing (LBBP). This has the potential to overcome the limitations of HBP and provide a safe technique to capture the conduction system in patients with distal His bundle and proximal bundle branch disease. The criteria for LBB capture and the methodology to perform LBBP are discussed in detail in this review. The Medtronic SelectSecure®3830 pacing lead is used along with a fixed-curve C315His® or a deflectable C304His® sheath. LBBP provides safe and low threshold compared to HBP. Left bundle potential should be demonstrable in all patients except in those with infrahisian complete heart block (CHB) and complete left bundle branch block (LBBB), wherein antegrade activation of the left bundle will not occur. LBBP has the potential to be an effective alternative to biventricular pacing or HBP in patients with left ventricular dysfunction, LBBB and recurrent heart failure. Long-term safety and clinical outcomes compared to traditional pacing need to be carefully studied in randomized clinical trials.Chronic RV pacing may lead to pacing induced cardiomyopathy in some patients and results in a higher risk
