BACKGROUND: Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndrome (CAPS) is an autoinflammatory condition consequence of monoallelic variants in the NLRP3 gene that exacerbate IL-1β production. These variants are gain-of-function, but the exact regulatory mechanism of the NLRP3 CAPS-inflammasom...
Zhuyu pill (ZYP) is a traditional Chinese medicine prescription composed of two drugs, Coptis chinensis Franch. and Tetradium ruticarpum (A. Jussieu) T. G. Hartley, and is commonly used in the clinical treatment of diseases of the digestive system. However, the mechanism underly...
Chromochloris zofingiensis has been proved as a potential resource for large-scale astaxanthin production, but little information of phytohormones on growth and astaxanthin accumulation could be obtained. This study explored the impact of gibberellic acid-3 (GA3) on growth and astaxanthin generat...
This study focuses on deaminotyrosine DAT, a metabolite of gut flora, and systematically investigates its effect on chronic inflammatory pain as well as the underlying mechanism. The research takes high-fat diet HFD as a key entry point for the background, as HFD often leads to an imbalance in th...

Rapeseed (Brassica napus) is an important oil resource, but its yield can be significantly compro-mised by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (S. sclerotiorum) infection. Due to the lack of rapeseed strains that are highly or completely immune to S. sclerotiorum, enhancing rapeseed resistance through genet...
BACKGROUND: Lactation is extremely important for dairy cows; however, the understanding of the underlying metabolic mechanisms is very limited. This study was conducted to investigate the inherent metabolic patterns during lactation using the overall biofluid metabolomics and the...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Ulcerative colitis (UC) poses a serious threat to human health. WLJP-025p, a polysaccharide component of Lonicera japonica thunb. has been confirmed to have anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. This study intends to explore the effects and mechanism of WLJP-025p ...
Pogostemon cablin (Blanco) Benth. cv. 'Jing Huoxiang', is a valuable medicinal plant widely studied for its aboveground tissues, which are rich in bioactive compounds such as patchouli alcohol. However, systematic investigations into the biosynthesis of sesquiterpenes in its underground parts (ro...
