This study shows that NEIL2, a DNA repair enzyme, is downregulated by Fusobacterium infection, leading to DNA damage and inflammation in colonic epithelial cells, and this effect is specific to microsatellite stable colorectal cancers.

The paper shows gut bacteria have extensively adapted to digest seaweed polysaccharides through gene transfer from marine bacteria, revealing widespread metabolic plasticity in the human gut microbiome.

The paper shows that increased NAD+ demand relative to ATP demand drives aerobic glycolysis by impairing NAD+ regeneration and promoting fermentation.

The paper shows that the J-protein Sis1's subcellular localization regulates the heat shock response in yeast by modulating Hsp70's interaction with Hsf1.

This study shows that brain metastases rely on PHGDH-mediated serine synthesis due to limited environmental serine, making them sensitive to PHGDH inhibition.

This study investigates the protective effects of ginseng against omeprazole-induced renal damage in rats, showing reduced inflammation, fibrosis, and apoptosis.

This study shows IL-33 enhances IFN-gamma and TNF secretion in human NK cells through p38 MAPK activation when combined with IL-12.

This study determines the crystal structures of HCV NS3/4A protease from multiple genotypes bound to glecaprevir, revealing molecular mechanisms of pan-genotypic inhibition and resistance-associated substitutions.

This study examines factors affecting the detection of GM rice, showing that husk presence, DNA extraction methods, and PCR primers significantly influence detection outcomes.

This study shows that OASL inhibits M. tuberculosis replication and promotes proinflammatory cytokine secretion in THP-1 cells.

This study develops prolates, non-spherical polymersomes, showing enhanced uptake by neural cells compared to spherical polymersomes.

This study examines how blue-blocking lenses affect photostress recovery times for chromatic and achromatic stimuli under low and high contrast conditions, finding significant impacts under low contrast.

This study identifies NhaC3 as a key antiporter for pH and salt tolerance in S. aureus, showing its critical role in virulence under extreme conditions.

The paper detects and differentiates Entamoeba species in stool samples from children in Swat, Pakistan using microscopy and PCR, finding PCR necessary to distinguish pathogenic E. histolytica from non-pathogenic species.

This study shows that coral recruits acquire Symbiodiniaceae symbionts from both sediment and adult corals, with the combination of sediment and adult coral fragments leading to the highest uptake and diversity.
