INTRODUCTION: The study of natural variation of metabolites brings valuable information on the physiological state of the organisms as well as their phenotypic traits. In marine organisms, metabolome variability has mostly been addressed through targeted studies on metabolites of...
Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a hereditary disorder characterized by progressive renal cyst formation, often leading to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). While urinary metabolomics in ADPKD has been extensively studied, the composition of renal cyst fluid, par...
The induction of endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein responses (UPRER) contributes to cancer development and progression. We recently linked microbiota-related triggers to the tumor-promoting role of signal transducer activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) in the colon. Here we substantiate ...
