Extracellular membrane vesicles (EMVs) are produced by many Gram-positive organisms, but information regarding vesiculogenesis is incomplete. We used single gene deletions to evaluate the impacts on Streptococcus mutans EMV biogenesis of Sortase A (SrtA), which affects S. mutans...
Selective autophagy of mitochondria is known to promote survival and progression of cancer cells in various malignancies, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Here, we investigate the essential metabolic adaptations that support mitochondrial quality control in cancer cells with the ai...
In annually reoccurring patterns, microalgae form blooms that persist and decline thereby contributing massively to global biogeochemical cycles. The decline of blooms is mainly caused by nutrient limitation and goes ahead with the aging of individual algal cells. Nutrient intake can re-initiate ...

Progestins are ubiquitous in aquatic environments, with adverse effects on aquatic organisms' reproduction even at extremely low concentrations (0.8 ng/L). As female germ cells, oocytes play an irreplaceable role in organismal reproductive processes. However, the toxic mechanism of norgestrel (NG...
