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...

INTRODUCTION: A decline in mitochondrial function represents a key factor of a large number of inborn errors of metabolism, which lead to an extremely heterogeneous group of disorders.
OBJECTIVES: To gain insight into the biochemical consequences of mitocho...
Amphotericin B is increasingly used in treatment of leishmaniasis. Here, fourteen independent lines of Leishmania mexicana and one L. infantum line were selected for resistance to either amphotericin B or the related polyene antimicrobial, nystatin. Sterol profiling revealed tha...
Oxidative stress and ferroptosis are central to the pathogenesis of many diseases, including those characterized by intestinal damage, where excessive lipid peroxidation and iron accumulation trigger cellular dysfunction. In this study, we investigate the protective effects of astaxanthin (ASTA),...
Epichloë sinensis, associated with Festuca sinensis, exhibits rich morphological, genetic and functional diversity across different strains. To comprehensively evaluate the categories and difference in the secondary metabolites of different E. sinensis strains and thereby...
Phytophthora nicotianae is an oomycete pathogen of global significance threatening many important crops. It is mainly controlled by chemosynthetic fungicides, which endangers ecosystem and human health; thus, there is an urgent need to explore alternatives for these fungicides. In this s...
