Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major cause of diarrhea in children and adults in endemic areas. Gene regulation of ETEC during growth in vitro and in vivo needs to be further evaluated, and here we describe the full transcriptome and metabolome of ETEC dur...
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) represents a potential strategy to overcome resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients with refractory melanoma; however, the role of FMT in first-line treatment settings has not been evaluated. We conducted a multicenter phase I trial combining ...
Microorganisms can adopt a quiescent physiological condition which acts as a survival strategy under unfavourable conditions. Quiescent cells are characterized by slow or non-proliferation and deep down-regulation of processes related to biosynthesis. Although quiescence has been described mostly...
Ischemic stroke recovery involves dynamic interactions between the central nervous system and infiltrating immune cells. Peripheral immune cells compete with resident microglia for spatial niches in the brain, but how modulating this balance affects recovery remains unclear. Here, we use PLX5622 ...
As people are being widely exposed to microplastics (MPs), it is urgent to elucidate their toxicity mechanisms and identify intervention strategies to mitigate their adverse effects. This study firstly designed a two-phase population trial, comprising a pilot population (n = 151) to investigate t...
