Indigenous bacteria from the gut microbiota regulate host serotonin biosynthesis.
Cell, 2015 The gastrointestinal (GI) tract contains much of the body's serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), but mechanisms controlling the metabolism of gut-derived 5-HT remain unclear.

Expression and gene regulatory network of SNHG1 in hepatocellular carcinoma
BMC Medical Genomics, 2021 Background Small nucleolar RNA host gene 1 (SNHG1), a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), is a transcript that negatively regulates tumour suppressor genes, such as p53. Abnormal SNHG1 expression is associated with cell proliferation and cancer.

Environmental Health Perspectives, 1984 Collagen is the major structural protein of the lung. At least five genetically distinct collagen types have been identified in lung tissue. However, the precise role of collagen in nonrespiratory lung function is not well understood, in part because of the difficulties inherent in studying lung collagen, regardless of the type of assay used.

The Taxus genome provides insights into paclitaxel biosynthesis
Nature Plants, 2021 The ancient gymnosperm genus Taxus is the exclusive source of the anticancer drug paclitaxel, yet no reference genome sequences are available for comprehensively elucidating the paclitaxel biosynthesis pathway. We have completed a chromosome-level genome
