Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major cause of diarrhea in children and adults in endemic areas. Gene regulation of ETEC during growth in vitro and in vivo needs to be further evaluated, and here we describe the full transcriptome and metabolome of ETEC dur...
Phaeocystis pouchetii (Hariot) Lagerheim, 1893 regularly dominates phytoplankton blooms in the Arctic. Through zooplankton grazing and microbial activity, it is considered to be a key resource for the entire marine food web but the actual relevance of biomass transfer to higher trophic levels is ...
Abstract
Background
The gut microbiota is a key regulator of host lipid metabolism. In indigenous pigs, variation in growth performance and intramuscular fat (IMF) deposition has been linked to microbiota-host interactions, yet the specific taxa and metabolites that govern host lipid ...
Ecologically derived synthetic communities can provide robust plant benefits, yet generalizable rules for assembling multifunctional consortia remain limited. We hypothesized that a “top-down” community assembled from an ecological core would yield complementary functions and resilience superior ...
Small-for-gestational-age (SGA) is a globally recognized public health concern. Infants born SGA may experience metabolic disturbances. This study elucidated the key regulatory factors and mechanisms underlying catch-up growth (CUG) and metabolic homeostasis in SGA infants. High-throughput target...
