Smart Sampling Capsule for Capture and Detection of Enteric Pathogens in the Small Intestine

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An ingestible smart sampling capsule for capturing asymptomatic enteric pathogens at their primary sites of interaction within the small intestine. This capability enables non‐invasive detection of early pathogen colonization within the gut environment prior to fecal shedding, providing a robust approach for pathogen surveillance and microbiome studies.

Chronic dietary intake of enniatin B in broiler chickens has low impact on intestinal morphometry and hepatic histology, and shows limited transfer to liver tissue [PDF]

, 2018
The Fusarium mycotoxin enniatin B (ENN B) is a so-called emerging mycotoxin frequently contaminating poultry feed. To investigate the impact of chronic ENN B exposure on animal health, broiler chickens were fed either a diet naturally contaminated with ...

5’‐Methylthioadenosine Metabolic Reprogramming Drives H3K79 Monomethylation‐Mediated PAK2 Upregulation to Promote Cadmium‐Induced Breast Cancer Progression by Impairing Autophagic Flux

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cadmium, a carcinogenic heavy metal, drives breast cancer progression via metabolic reprogramming and autophagic flux disruption. Multi‐omics revealed cadmium‐induced 5'‐methylthioadenosine depletion activates DOT1L‐mediated H3K79me1 at PAK2 promoter, upregulating PAK2 to block autophagy and driving malignancy. Clinically, 5'‐methylthioadenosine levels
