Background: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are often prescribed during pregnancy. Yet, epidemiological studies link in-utero SSRI exposure with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism and ADHD. The potential molecular mechanisms by which SSRIs impact early n...
The role of sebaceous glands (SGs) in the early pathogenesis of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is undefined, with unclear causal relationship to inflammatory sequelae. The aim of this study was to determine whether SG aberrations constitute a primary pathogenic driver in early HS and elucidate the...
BACKGROUND: In China, a majority of apple orchards were initially planted under arboriculture. Noteworthy, as the trees age, there is an increase in the number of branches and the degree of orchard depression and deterioration of the canopy light conditions. This phenomenon results in in blockage...
Objective
To characterise the vaginal microbiota, mucosal metabolome and host immune response in early pregnancy and investigate its relationship with adverse pregnancy outcomes, including ectopic pregnancy, within the context of pregnancies of unknown location (PUL).
<...Ischemic stroke recovery involves dynamic interactions between the central nervous system and infiltrating immune cells. Peripheral immune cells compete with resident microglia for spatial niches in the brain, but how modulating this balance affects recovery remains unclear. Here, we use PLX5622 ...
Blood metabolomics of 12-week-old female and male C57BL/6J mice that were exposed to either a control or an unhealthy high-fat/high-sugar (HFHS) diet during early-life, or early-life HFHS diet supplemented with a microbiota-targeted intervention (either a prebiotic combination (fructo-oligosaccha...
Early-life exposure to natural and synthetic chemicals can impact acute and chronic health conditions. Here, a suspect screening workflow anchored on high-resolution mass spectrometry was applied to elucidate xenobiotics in breast milk and matching stool samples collected from Nigerian mother-inf...
BACKGROUND: Diarrhea is common in infants, particularly, children less than 2 years old. Intractable or protracted infancy diarrhea is typically associated with feeding intolerance and malabsorption that is lethal for newborns. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of ba...
