Spatio-temporal variation of bacterial community structure in two intertidal sediment types of Jiaozhou Bay

This study examines bacterial community structure in intertidal sediments of Jiaozhou Bay, finding that sandy sediments have more species involved in community building and that temporal changes have a greater impact on bacterial communities than on gene families.

Old Age Drives Fusion and Expansion of Vitellogenin Vesicles in the Intestine of Caenorhabditis elegans

This study examines age-related changes in vitellogenin vesicles and yolk organelles in C. elegans, finding significant expansion and fusion of these structures in post-reproductive worms.

Immuno-electron microscopy localizes Caenorhabditis elegans vitellogenins along the classic exocytosis route

This study uses immuno-electron microscopy to map the subcellular localization of vitellogenins in C. elegans, showing they follow the classic exocytic pathway.

Profiling the size-dependent heterogeneity of membrane proteins in a mixed population of small extracellular vesicle for potential cancer diagnosis

This study profiles size-dependent membrane protein heterogeneity in small EVs to improve cancer diagnosis accuracy using a novel single EV enumeration approach.

Phodopus roborovskii SH101 as a systemic infection model of SARS-CoV-2

This paper identifies a hamster model, Phodopus roborovskii SH101, that exhibits systemic SARS-CoV-2 infection with clinical symptoms similar to human COVID-19.
