The Chinese caterpillar fungus, Ophiocordyceps sinensis, is a valuable medicinal entomopathogenic fungus, but artificial cultivation is hindered by fruiting body abortion, severely impacting yield and quality. The interactions between the fungus, its host insects, and soil are critical for its de...

In large-scale poultry farming, broilers of the same breed share a common genetic background and identical management conditions, yet substantial individual variation in body weight persists. In this study, we identified distinct plasma proteomic profiles between high and low weight broilers, wit...

We use untargeted metabolomics to investigate the immediate phytochemical effects of autopolyploidy on our model system, the greater duckweed Spirodela polyrhiza, a small aquatic macrophyte from the family Lemnaceae. We compare metabolite abundances in four genetically distinct diploid-a...

Blood plays a vital role in diagnostic medicine by providing essential information for assessing health and diagnosing various conditions. Routine blood tests can reveal important biomarkers that support early diagnosis and timely intervention. Recently, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged ...
