BACKGROUND: Single ventricle congenital heart disease (SVCHD) is a severe form of cardiac malformation in which there is only one functional ventricle. The Fontan operation is the current standard of care for SVCHD. Almost all patients who have undergone the Fontan operation develop liver fibrosi...
Houttuynia cordata is a medicinal plant with diverse pharmacological activities, but the relationship between its flavonoid components and gene expression across different plant parts remains poorly understood. This study aims to explore these relationships using metabolomics and transcriptomics ...
Background: Blocking glycolysis inhibits regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are often hijacked by tumor cells whose survival relies on glycolysis to inhibit antitumor immunity. However, how glycolysis influences Treg proliferation/differentiation remains unclear. Monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs...
This study integrated transcriptomics and metabolomics to analyse the molecular differences in the skin tissues of perennial long wool type (PT-LCG) and seasonal long wool type (ST-LCG) Liaoning cashmere goats to reveal the regulatory mechanisms underlying their differences in cashmere production...
Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) biofilms exhibit high levels of drug resistance and cause nosocomial infections in humans, thus posing a sustainable global health threat. This underscores the critical need to develop novel antibiofilm therapeutics with high efficacy...
Urine metabolomics is widely used for biomarker research in the fields of medicine and toxicology. As a consequence, characterization of the variations of the urine metabolome under basal conditions becomes critical in order to avoid confounding effects in cohort studies. Such physiological infor...
