Pan‐cancer analysis shapes the understanding of cancer biology and medicine
Abstract Advances in multi‐omics datasets and analytical methods have revolutionized cancer research, offering a comprehensive, pan‐cancer perspective. Pan‐cancer studies identify shared mechanisms and unique traits across different cancer types, which are reshaping diagnostic and treatment strategies.

Identification of Prosthetic Joint Infection Pathogens Using a Shotgun Metagenomics Approach
Background Metagenomic shotgun sequencing has the potential to change how many infections, particularly those caused by difficult-to-culture organisms, are diagnosed. Metagenomics was used to investigate prosthetic joint infections (PJIs), where pathogen

Enzymatic Production of Opine‐type Chiral Amines with Controlled Stereoselectivity
Chiral secondary amine dicarboxylic acid derivatives are key building blocks of several peptidomimetic angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE2) inhibitors. Reductive amination of α‐keto acids with α‐amino esters can yield orthogonally functionalized derivatives facilitating further chemical modifications. Biocatalysis offers a sustainable and selective way

Long Term Weight Cycling Affects Fecal Microbiota of Mice
Fighting obesity through dieting is not always sustained and results in a subsequent weight gain, a phenomenon referred to as weight cycling. We determined whether weight cycling affects mouse fecal bacteria on a long‐term basis. Compared to continuous High Fat (HF) or Low Fat (LF) diets, cyclic diet specifically alters the composition and function of ...

Utilizing de Bruijn graph of metagenome assembly for metatranscriptome analysis [PDF]
Metagenomics research has accelerated the studies of microbial organisms, providing insights into the composition and potential functionality of various microbial communities. Metatranscriptomics (studies of the transcripts from a mixture of microbial species) and other meta-omics approaches hold even greater promise for providing additional insights ...

One‐Pot Depolymerization of Mixed Plastics Using a Dual Enzyme System
The concurrent depolymerization of a polymer blend comprising three hydrolyzable plastics is demonstrated by employing an esterase and a urethanase in a sequential one‐pot process. The reaction resulted in a depolymerization degree of around 40 %, which corresponds to a minimum monomer yield of 3 % for 4,4′‐methylenedianiline (MDA) and a maximum of 55 %

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Targeting the Tumor Microbiota in Cancer Therapy Basing on Nanomaterials
Intra‐tumoral microbiota, which is a potential component of the tumor microenvironment, has been emerging as a key participant and driving factor in cancer. This article reviews the latest progress in this field, including the microbial community within tumors and its pro‐cancer mechanisms, as well as the anti‐tumor strategies targeting intra‐tumoral ...

Illumina Sequencing Artifacts Revealed by Connectivity Analysis of Metagenomic Datasets [PDF]
Sequencing errors and biases in metagenomic datasets affect coverage-based assemblies and are often ignored during analysis. Here, we analyze read connectivity in metagenomes and identify the presence of problematic and likely a-biological connectivity within metagenome assembly graphs.
