Hyocholic acid (HCA) is a major bile acid (BA) species in the BA pool of pigs, a species known for its exceptional resistance to spontaneous development of diabetic phenotypes. HCA and its derivatives are also present in human blood and urine. We investigate whether human HCA profiles can predict th...
Quantitative metaproteomics is a relatively new research field by applying proteomics technique to study microbial proteins of microbiome, and holds the great potential to truly quantify the functional proteins actually expressed by microbes in the biological environment such as gastrointestinal tra...
Iron (Fe) and Manganese (Mn) are essential for bacterial survival and virulence as they are involved in catalysis, infection and biofilm formation. The basal metabolism of pathogenic bacteria would be disturbed by the deficiency of metal ions in the host environment. In this study, we found that Str...
The Omicron variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), first identified in November 2021 in South Africa, has initiated the 5th wave of global pandemics. Here, we systemically examined immunological and metabolic characteristics of Omicron variants infection. We found ...
In this study we aim to explore the metabolic enzyme that affects NK cell function in colorectal cancer, and mainly focus on the mechanism how nuclear ACAT1(Mitochondrial acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase)promotes NK cell infiltration and activation
a label-free quantitative proteomics method was employed to identify the differentially abundant proteins in AM E. angustifolia seedlings under salt stress.
In this study we mapped H3K27me3, H3K4me3 and H3K9me2 marks in three mammary epithelial subsets: MaSC/basal (MS), luminal progenitor (LP) and mature luminal (ML) in the steady-state. In addition, profiles were generated for H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 marks in the MaSC/basal and luminal populations from th...
