CD8+ T cells detect and kill virally infected or cancerous cells. When activated from their naïve state, T cells undergo a complex transition, including major metabolic reprogramming. Detailed resolution of metabolic dynamics of a wide range of metabolites is needed to advance the field of immuno...
Bibenzyls are a specialized metabolite class found throughout the plant kingdom. One of the most prolific producers of bibenzyls are liverworts, specifically plants of the Radula genera. These plants possess an incredible diversity of bibenzyls, prenylated bibenzyls and a few (bis)bibenz...

Acetylhistidine has been detected in human blood, but its origin and function are not known. It is formed when the acetyl group of acetyl-CoA is transferred to the α-amino group of histidine. Here we identify the intracellular NAT16 as the human histidine acetyltransferase (HisAT) responsible for...
Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is one of the deadliest cancers, with limited therapeutic options due to its therapeutically intractable genome, which is characterized by the functional inactivation of tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) and high tumor heterogeneity, including diverse metabolic adaptations. ...
Background: Marine fish are paradoxically rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) despite their limited endogenous biosynthesis capacity, suggesting a critical role of exogenous acquisition or microbial contributions.
Results: Here, we characterized the gut microbiota of Seriola dumeri...
Inoculation with homofermentative lactic acid bacteria (LAB) effectively enhances the silage quality of forages. Moreover, feeding such LAB-inoculated silage modulates rumen microbiota composition and metabolites, thereby improving ruminant production performance. Nevertheless, the specific mecha...
