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,...
Previous studies have found that gut microbiota and metabolites may be crucial in insect sexual maturation. For example, during sexual maturity, the increased dopamine in the drone's brain can affect its reproductive behavior, such as flight, mating, etc. In addition, gut microbiota can affect br...
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 ...
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...
INTRODUCTION: The absolute quantitation of lipids at the lipidome-wide scale is a challenge but plays an important role in the comprehensive study of lipid metabolism.
OBJECTIVES: We aim to develop a high-throughput quantitative lipidomics approach to enab...
Beyond motor neuron degeneration, homozygous mutations in the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene cause multiorgan and metabolic defects in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). However, the precise biochemical features of these alterations and the age of onset in the brain and peripheral ...
