Marine viruses play a key role in regulating phytoplankton populations, greatly affecting the biogeochemical cycling of major nutrients in the ocean. Resistance to viral infection has been reported for various phytoplankton species under laboratory conditions. Nevertheless, the occurrence of resi...
Gastric cancer (GC) is a severe malignancy characterized by late diagnosis, poor prognosis and low survival rates. Its progression is often linked to chronic non-atrophic gastritis (CNAG) and chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG), which show atypical symptoms. Identifying biomarkers for CNAG, CAG and ...
The viral shunt is a fundamental ecosystem process which diverts the flux of organic carbon fixed through photosynthesis during algal bloom events from heterotrophic grazers to bacteria. Through the extracellular release of metabolites, lytic viral infections supply 2-10% of photosynthetically fi...
Female genital tuberculosis (FGTB) and latent genital tuberculosis (LGTB) critically impair women's reproductive health. However, their early diagnosis and treatment remain challenging due to nonspecific symptoms and suboptimal diagnostic methods. This study utilized serum untargeted metabolomics...
Background: Emerging evidence implicates patent foramen ovale (PFO) as a potential contributor to migraine through paradoxical metabolite shunting, microembolism and hypoxemia. However, systematic characterization of metabolic alterations in migraine patients with PFO (PFO-M) remains un...
