AIM: Low-molecular-weight organic substances (LMWOSs) are at the nexus between micro-organisms, plant roots, detritus and the soil mineral matrix. The nominal oxidation state of carbon (NOSC) has been suggested as a potential parameter for modelling microbial uptake rates of LMWO...
Goats can provide meat, milk and skins for humans and are livestock with high economic benefits. However, despite their economic significance, the comprehensive analysis of goats' serum metabolic profile and its intricate alterations throughout their developmental journey remains conspicuously ab...
Poria cocos, a traditional medicinal fungus, exhibits a wide array of biological activities. Through the integration of metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses, we have determined that the development of Poria cocos mycelia is predominantly propelled by biochemical reactions triggered by oxidativ...
We examined the developmental ecotoxicity of the in-hive acaricide amitraz in honey bee (Apis mellifera) queens by exposing fourth-instar larvae to acute and residue-informed sub-LD50 doses and assessing responses from organismal to metabolic levels. The 72-h LD50 of amitraz was 4.428 μg/queen. U...
Mitochondrial metabolic remodeling is a hallmark of the Trypanosoma brucei digenetic life cycle since the insect stage utilizes the cost-effective oxidative phosphorylation to generate ATP, while bloodstream cells switch to less energetically efficient aerobic glycolysis. Due to difficulties in a...
Drought is one of the most severe abiotic stresses. However, there is a lack of genetic evidence regarding whether and how plants coordinate the dynamic assembly of the microbiome in response to drought. Through the use of mutants with enhanced or reduced root hair densities (rsl2 rsl4, hairless ...
The metabolic profile of follicular fluid (FF) has been investigated to look for biomarkers for oocyte quality. Resolvin E1 (RvE1), a potent pro-resolving mediator, was reported to have protective action in cell function. The study aimed to examine the predictive value of RvE1 for oocyte quality ...
Introduction: Muscle growth and development in Liaoning cashmere goats (a dual-purpose breed for cashmere and meat) and its regulation by intestinal flora are key to improving meat production, yet relevant molecular mechanisms remain unclear.
Objectives: To reveal the molecular mechanism ...
