INTRODUCTION: A decline in mitochondrial function represents a key factor of a large number of inborn errors of metabolism, which lead to an extremely heterogeneous group of disorders.
OBJECTIVES: To gain insight into the biochemical consequences of mitocho...
SARS-CoV-2 reprograms host metabolism to promote viral replication and evade immune responses. While infection is known to impair mitochondrial function and enhance glycolysis, the role of viral accessory proteins in these alterations remains unclear. Here, we investigate the metabolic impact of ...
Leaf samples were obtained from Vitis vinifera ‘Malvasia Fina’ plants with well-characterized esca complex disease symptoms (n = 18) and from healthy uninfected plants (n = 6). Leaves from diseased plants were divided into three groups: asymptomatic (ASY), chlorotic (SY1), and scorched leaves (SY...
Living organisms are organized into hierarchical levels of increasing complexity. As mutational effects propagate through these levels, multiple phenotypes are produced. However, identifying which phenotypes influence fitness and drive selection remains a key challenge in understanding genotype-p...
Background: Specialised anti-herbivory metabolites are abundant in the solanaceous genus Nicotiana. These metabolites include the large family of 17-hydroxygeranyllinalool diterpene glycosides (HGL-DTGs). Many HGL-DTGs occur exclusively within the Nicotiana genus,...
This study, conducted under a high-concentrate finishing context, used an integrated multi-omics approach to evaluate the effects of an Alkaline Mineral Complex (AMC) on jejunal digestion–absorption and gut health in beef cattle. The results showed that AMC alleviated mucosal pathological injury ...
Direct infusion mass spectrometry (DI-MS) offers a rapid, high-throughput analysis and, compared to liquid chromatography MS (LC-MS), a different analytical window into the composition of complex biological samples. However, the lack of chromatographic separation in DI-MS results in highly comple...
