TL;DR: Guard cells provide an excellent system to study cross-talk, as multiple signaling pathways induce both short- and long-term responses in these sensory cells, and are related to ion transport at the plasma membrane and vacuolar membrane.
Abstract: Stomata can be regarded as hydraulically driven valves in the leaf surface, which open to allow CO2 uptake and close to prevent excessive loss of water. Movement of these 'Watergates' is regulated by environmental conditions, such as light, CO2 and humidity. Guard cells can sense environmental conditions and function as motor cells within the stomatal complex. Stomatal movement results from the transport of K+ salts across the guard cell membranes. In this review, we discuss the biophysical principles and mechanisms of stomatal movement and relate these to ion transport at the plasma membrane and vacuolar membrane. Studies with isolated guard cells, combined with recordings on single guard cells in intact plants, revealed that light stimulates stomatal opening via blue light-specific and photosynthetic-active radiation-dependent pathways. In addition, guard cells sense changes in air humidity and the water status of distant tissues via the stress hormone abscisic acid (ABA). Guard cells thus provide an excellent system to study cross-talk, as multiple signaling pathways induce both short- and long-term responses in these sensory cells.

TL;DR: Stapler closure did not reduce the rate of pancreatic fistula compared with hand-sewn closure for distal pancreatectomy and new strategies, including innovative surgical techniques, need to be identified to reduce this adverse outcome.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors expose a link between electron-vibrations coupling and non-radiative recombinations, derive a new limit for the efficiency of organic solar cells, and redefine their optimal optical gap.
Abstract: The conversion efficiency of organic solar cells suffers from their low open-circuit voltages. Here, the authors expose a link between electron-vibrations coupling and non-radiative recombinations, derive a new limit for the efficiency of organic solar cells, and redefine their optimal optical gap.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel transcript, designated XLRS1, was identified within the centromeric juvenile retinoschisis (RS) locus that is exclusively expressed in retina.
Abstract: X–linked juvenile retinoschisis (RS) is a recessively inherited vitreo-retinal degeneration characterized by macular pathology and intraretinal splitting of the retina. The RS gene has been localized to Xp22.2 to an approximately 1 Mb interval between DXS418 and DXS999/DXS7161. Mapping and expression analysis of expressed sequence tags have identified a novel transcript, designated XLRS1, within the centromeric RS locus that is exclusively expressed in retina. The predicted XLRS1 protein contains a highly conserved motif implicated in cell–cell interaction and thus may be active in cell adhesion processes during retinal development. Mutational analyses of XLRS1 in affected individuals from nine unrelated RS families revealed one nonsense, one frameshift, one splice acceptor and six missense mutations segregating with the disease phenotype in the respective families. These data provide strong evidence that the XLRS1 gene, when mutated, causes RS.
