Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) refers to nervous system damage caused by perinatal hypoxia, which is the major cause of long-term neuro-developmental disorders in surviving infants. However, the mechanisms still require further investigation. In this study, we found that the butan...
Lipids in the brain play a crucial role as structural and signaling molecules, accounting for approximately 60% of the brain’s dry weight. Several lipid classes exhibit concentration profile differences between humans and other species, including closely related primates, with the most pronounced...
The molecular heterogeneity of brain metastases hampers therapeutic development for cures. To address this unmet and urgent need, we constructed a comprehensive multi-omic, single cell, and spatially resolved atlas of 1,032 pan-cancer brain metastases, identifying four robust molecular subtypes ...
Human brain organoids are emerging models to study human brain development and pathology as they recapitulate the development and characteristics of major neural cell types, and enable manipulation through an in vitro system. Over the past decade, with the advent of spatial technologies,...

Alterations in cell metabolism, including changes in lipid composition occurring during malignancy, are well characterized for various tumor types. However, a significant part of studies that deal with brain tumors have been performed using cell cultures and animal models. Here, we present a data...
Omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids; n-3 PUFAs) are essential for the functional maturation of the brain. Westernization of dietary habits in both developed and developing countries is accompanied by a progressive reduction in dietary intake of n-3 PUFAs. Low maternal intake of n...
The gut microbiome has been associated with pathological neurophysiological evolvement in extremely premature infants suffering from brain injury. The exact underlying mechanism and its associated metabolic signatures in infants are not fully understood. To decipher metab...
