ABSTRACT Understanding the functional implications of genes' variants in autism heterogeneity is challenging. Gene set analysis examines the cumulative effect of multiple functionally converging genes. Here we explored whether a multi‐step analysis could identify gene sets with different loads of protein‐altering variants (PAVs) between two subgroups ...

Replacement of cobalt in the organometallic B12‐cofactor methylcobalamin (MeCbl) by rhodium furnishes a structural mimic with a significantly stronger metal–carbon bond. This synthetically challenging formal metal‐mutation converts the naturally optimized biological methyl‐transfer catalyst MeCbl into a designed antivitamin B12, an inactivated B12 ...

Intestinal Barrier Glycosylation for Gut Physiology and Pathology
ABSTRACT The intestinal barrier is a selective structure that safeguards the body from external threats while permitting nutrient absorption and immune surveillance. It consists of the outer mucus layer, the intermediate layer of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs), and the inner layer of immune cells. The proteins in the mucus layer and within IECs are

Redefining the Skin Barrier: A Microbiome‐Integrated Multilayered Defense Model
ABSTRACT The skin constitutes a dynamic interface orchestrating a sophisticated multilayered defense system comprising physical, chemical, immune, and microbial barriers. This review synthesizes current understanding of the structural and functional integration of these barriers, emphasizing their synergistic interactions in maintaining cutaneous ...

Abstract Objective The gut microbiota (GM) plays a role in epilepsy development via the microbiota–gut–brain axis. However, its relationship with various epilepsy subtypes and its mediating role through immune cells remain unclear. Thus, identifying the GM linked to specific epilepsy subtypes and investigating immune mechanisms to predict epilepsy risk,

The causal relationship between gut microbiota and brain tumors and potential prognostic value of microbiota are still unclear. This study confirmed the causal effects of specific gut microbiota on three common brain tumors and identified microbe‐related genes that are expressed in brain tissue and correlated with the abundance of gut microbiota ...

Long‐term migration to high‐altitude areas can readily result in chronic high‐altitude diseases; however, effective prevention and treatment methods are currently lacking. This study employed a multi‐omics approach, integrating metagenomics and metabolomics, to discover and validate that the decreased abundance of Veillonella rogosae, Streptococcus ...
