Cancer cells can always be unexpected rescued from desperate environment by mounting adaptive responses to resolve the arising cellular stress. The dynamic stress granules (SGs) assembly and metabolic reprogramming play crucial roles in maintaining cellular growth and homeostasis. However, the me...

Aquatic insects are well-adapted to freshwater environments, but metabolic mechanisms of such adaptations, particularly to primary environmental factors (e.g., hypoxia, water pressure, dark light and abundant microbes), are poorly known. Most firefly species (Coleoptera: Lampyridae) are terrestri...

Microalgae are important primary producers and form the basis for the marine food web. As global climate changes, so do salinity levels that algae are exposed to. A metabolic response of algal cells partly alleviates the resulting osmotic stress. Some metabolites involved in the response are well...

GBM displays profound iron dependence and metabolic plasticity, yet how iron deprivation interfaces with stress-response pathways and amino acid metabolism in glioma remains incompletely understood. DFO, an iron chelator and hypoxia mimetic, is widely used experimentally, but the integration of a...

Human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells have been successfully adapted from adherent to suspension culture and have been widely applied in both scientific research and the pharmaceutical industry. However, the alterations in cells during the adaptation have not been well described, which raise ...

High-temperature stress critically challenges cold-water aquaculture; however, the size-dependent molecular mechanisms underlying thermal adaptation in triploid rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) remain poorly understood. Here, we integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic profiling of liver tiss...

Natural killer (NK) cells are forced to cope with different oxygen environments even under resting conditions. The adaptation to low oxygen is regulated by oxygen-sensitive transcription factors, the hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs). The function of HIFs for NK cell activation and metabolic rewir...
