Cell culture is generally considered to be hyperoxic. However, the importance of cellular oxygen consumption is often underappreciated, with rates of oxygen consumption often sufficient to cause hypoxia at cell monolayers. We initially focused on cultured adipocytes as a terminally differentiated...
To investigate the metabolites and pathways modulated by BCG in RANKL-differentiated macrophages, thereby elucidating the metabolic mechanisms underlying BCG-induced macrophage activation, BMMs were stimulated with 50 ng/mL RANKL for 5 days to generate osteoclast-like cells. Subsequently, one gro...
Macrophages play a critical role in the inflammatory response and tumor development. Macrophages are primarily divided into pro-inflammatory M1-like and anti-inflammatory M2-like macrophages based on their activation status and functions. In vitro macrophage models could be derived from ...
This study investigated age-associated changes in the gut-muscle axis and their potential contribution to meat quality in Tan sheep (Ovis aries). Twelve Tan sheep were divided into two age groups, including six 3-month-old animals (T3) and six 6-month-old animals (T6). Untargeted LC-MS metabolomi...
