BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism, ovarian dysfunction and polycystic ovarian morphology. Gut microbiota dysbiosis and metabolite are associated with PCOS clinical parameters. Yulin Tong Bu formula (YLT...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The increasing incidence of cardiovascular diseases has created an urgent need for safe and effective anti-thrombotic agents. Leech, as a traditional Chinese medicine, has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, but its real mater...
Naïve human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) that resemble the pre-implantation epiblasts are fueled by a combination of aerobic glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, but their mitochondrial regulators are poorly understood. Here we report that, proline dehydrogenase (PRODH), a mitochondria-local...

Megasphaera hexanoica KCCM 43214T, isolated from cow rumen, is capable of producing medium-chain carboxylic acids such as n-caproate and n-caprylate. In this study, we present a high-quality genome assembly, along with intracellular metabolomic profiling and pangenomic an...
Clavulanic acid (CA) is the preferred clinical drug for the treatment of infections by β-lactam antibiotic-resistant bacteria. CA is produced by Streptomyces clavuligerus, and although there have been many reports on the effects of carbon and nitrogen sources on CA production, the mechan...
