Harmful algal blooms (HABs) of the toxic haptophyte Prymnesium parvum are a recurrent problem in many inland and estuarine waters around the world. Strains of P. parvum vary in the toxins they produce and in other physiological traits associated with HABs, but the genetic basis ...
Exercise enhances physical performance and reduces the risk of many disorders such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, dementia and cancer. Exercise characteristically incites an inflammatory response, notably in skeletal muscles. While some effector mechanisms have been identified, regul...
The totality of environmental exposures and lifestyle factors, commonly referred to as the exposome, are poorly understood. Measuring the myriad of chemicals that humans are exposed to is immensely challenging and identifying disrupted metabolic pathways is even more complex. Here, we present a n...
