Taurine is a conditionally essential micronutrient and one of the most abundant amino acids in humans1-3. In endogenous taurine metabolism, dedicated enzymes are involved in biosynthesis of taurine from cysteine as well as the downstream metabolism of secondary taurine metabolites4,5. One such ta...
Dyslipidemia is a major cardiovascular risk factor. While dietary phytosterols are known to lower cholesterol, the mechanisms involving the gut-liver axis are not fully understood. By integrating human clinical trials and mechanistic animal models, we demonstrate that phytosterols improve lipid p...

Mitochondrial heat shock proteins and co-chaperones play essential roles in maintaining proteostasis. They are renowned for regulating unfolded proteins, usually without specific target preferences. In this study, we identified T cell activation inhibitor, mitochondria (TCAIM), as a novel DNAJC-t...
The objective of this study was to reveal the effects of early life lactoferrin intervention on the liver metabolism in the suckling piglets. Sixty newborn piglets with an average initial body weight (BW) of 1.51 ± 0.05 kg were assigned to the control (CON) group and the lactoferrin (LF) group. P...
