Thermoregulatory responses of ewes to winter shearing in mid- or late-pregnancy
Shearing ewes during mid or late gestation can improve lamb birth weight and vigor. The aim was to compare the thermoregulation and metabolic responses of ewes shorn in mid versus late gestation during winter.

Physiological media and oxygen levels modulate cancer hallmarks in cultured breast cancer cells
MCF7 breast cancer cells were cultured in standard conditions (18% O2 and DMEM) and physiological conditions (5% O2 and Plasmax, a medium modeled after the human plasma metabolome). A combined transcriptomic and proteomic approach was used to identify gene expression signatures at the mRNA and protein levels upstream of functional enrichment analyses ...

Epigenetic modifications, including histone post-translational modifications, are central drivers of age-associated structural and functional changes in the genome, influencing gene expression and leading to changes in cellular resilience.

The microbial degradation of synthetic polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is mediated by diverse α/β‐hydrolases, many of which remain poorly characterized. In this study, we investigated the α/β‐hydrolase SM0281 from Sinorhizobium meliloti and found that it exhibits robust carboxylesterase and polyesterase activities toward PET, PCL ...

Alteration of subgingival microbiome in patients with type 2 diabetes induced by diabetes treatment
ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction Diabetes and periodontal disease, a bacterial infection involving the oral microbiome, have a bidirectional relationship. However, the relationship between poor glycemic control and the oral microbiome remains unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the direct effect of intensive glycemic control on the oral microbiome ...

Narcolepsy and rapid eye movement sleep
Summary Since the first description of narcolepsy at the end of the 19th Century, great progress has been made. The disease is nowadays distinguished as narcolepsy type 1 and type 2. In the 1960s, the discovery of rapid eye movement sleep at sleep onset led to improved understanding of core sleep‐related disease symptoms of the disease (excessive ...

ABSTRACT Sleep supports memory consolidation. Non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep have been proposed to support, respectively, declarative memory consolidation and the integration of the memory affective dimension. Here, we used sodium oxybate (SXB) to modify the NREM/REM proportion during one sleep night and assessed ...

ABSTRACT Obesity arises from intertwined and reciprocal diet‐microbiome‐host pathways that reshape energy balance, insulin sensitivity, and inflammation. This review synthesizes mechanistic links between microbial functions and metabolic control, charts lifestyle‐related lifecourse dynamics from birth to older age, examines how GLP‐1‐based therapies ...
