Although this practice is known to cause a wine fault, the influence of light on the fruity and flowery aromatic profile of wine is unknown. The aim of this study was to i...
Regional structure of the intestinal epithelium is critical for its function and is associated with the risk of specific gut diseases. However, how regionalization is established and how it influences disease susceptibility remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role of the gut micr...
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can self-renew infinitely or differentiate into the 3 germ layer lineages in vitro with certain cues, holding great promise to model early human embryo development ex vivo. It is wildly accepted that hESCs take advantage of both glycolysis and ...
Scope: The Caco2/HT29-MTX co-culture system is widely used as a cell model of the intestinal epithelium. Although the gut epithelium plays an important role in the uptake of free fatty acids and the resynthesis of triglycerides, the lipid distribution profile of the two-dimensional co-culture sys...
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common kidney malignancy. Yet, no rapid, non-invasive biomarkers are available for diagnosis or screening. Urine represents an ideal analyte matrix due to its accessibility, low invasiveness, longitudinal sampling and the kidney’s central role i...
