Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Analysis Reveals the Mechanism of H18 Pepper Color Change
AgriculturePigments in plants not only determine their visual characteristics but also play crucial roles in photosynthesis, pollinator attraction, and disease resistance. The diverse colors of chili peppers arise from various pigments. However, detailed reports on

Modulation of Lipid Transport and Adipose Tissue Deposition by Small Lipophilic Compounds
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Small lipophilic molecules present in foods of plant origin have relevant biological activities at rather low concentrations. Evidence suggests that phytosterols, carotenoids, terpenoids, and tocopherols can interact with different metabolic pathways ...

Single-cell genomics based on Raman sorting reveals novel carotenoid-containing bacteria in the Red Sea [PDF]
, 2016 Cell sorting coupled with single-cell genomics is a powerful tool to circumvent cultivation of microorganisms and reveal microbial ‘dark matter’. Single-cell Raman spectra (SCRSs) are label-free biochemical ‘fingerprints’ of individual cells, which can ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Aging involves physiological decline and heightened disease susceptibility, necessitating effective interventions. Redox‐responsive selenium‐loaded nanoparticles (SeMSNs) are developed, which delay cellular senescence by reducing oxidative stress and senescence markers (p16/p21). In aged mice, SeMSNs extend lifespan, improve organ function, and restore
