BACKGROUND: Bagging is one of the most important techniques for the production of high-quality fruits. In the act of cultivation, we found a new kind of browning in peel of the apple fruit that occurs before harvest and worsens during the storage period. There are many studies on...

Bee pollen is consumed for its nutritional and pharmacological benefits, but it also contains hazardous allergens which has not been identified. Here, we identified 2 potential allergens, glutaredoxin and oleosin-B2, in Brassica napus (B. napus) bee pollen using mass spectrometr...

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...

Metabolic reprogramming in malignant cells is a hallmark of cancer that relies on augmented glycolytic metabolism to support their growth, invasion and metastasis. However, the impact of global adipose metabolism on tumor growth and the drug development by targeting adipose metabolism remain larg...

Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) dominated by Microcystis aeruginosa threaten the ecological integrity and beneficial uses of lakes globally. In addition to producing hepatotoxic microcystins (MC), M. aeruginosa exudates (MaE) contain various compounds with demonstrat...
