Single-cell metabolomics reveals cell heterogeneity and elucidates intracellular molecular mechanisms. However, general concentration measurement of metabolites can only provide a static delineation of metabolomics, lacking the metabolic activity information of biological pathways. Herein, we dev...

Microbiota-released extracellular vesicles (MEVs) have emerged as a key player in intercellular signaling. However, their involvement in the gut-brain axis has been poorly investigated. In this study, we aimed to investigate the cargo capacity of MEVs for bioactive metabolites and their interacti...

Tea anthracnose caused by Glomerella cingulata threatens yield and quality, while resistance to legacy fungicides highlights the need for new modes of action. We characterized the antifungal activity and mechanism of bifemetstrobin against G. cingulata by combining efficacy assays with cell ...

Chemistry in eukaryotic intercellular spaces is shaped by both hosts and symbiotic microorganisms such as bacteria. Pathogenic microorganisms like barley associated Xanthomonas translucens (Xt) swiftly overtake the inner leaf tissue becoming the dominant microbial community member during disease ...

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are dysregulated in cancers, with N6-methyladenosine (m⁶A)-modified species acting as key regulators of ferroptosis via iron metabolism and lipid peroxidation. This study examines the role of circSLTM (circ-0000605) in gastric cancer (GC). Clinical analyses of GEO data an...

Microbial communities often undergo intricate compositional changes yet also maintain stable coexistence of diverse species. The mechanisms underlying long-term coexistence remain unclear, as system-wide studies have been largely limited to engineered communities, ex situ adapted cultures, or syn...
