Rewiring nutrition: Chemical insights into the physiological and microbiological roles of food's microconstituents

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Bidirectional interactions between food‐derived sensory compounds, gut sensing and microbiota, host physiological feedback, and metabolite production within the food matrix collectively shape sensory perception, microbial dynamics, and metabolic health.

The mevalonate pathway promotes the metastasis of osteosarcoma by regulating YAP1 activity via RhoA

Genes and Diseases, 2022
Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumour, and the metastasis of osteosarcoma is an important cause of death. Evidence has shown that the mevalonate pathway is highly activated and is expected to be a new target for tumour therapy.

Production of Mevalonic Acid by Fermentation [PDF]

Applied Microbiology, 1968
The purpose of this investigation was to select microorganisms that produce substantial quantities of mevalonic acid and to develop an economic fermentation process. To screen for mevalonic acid-producing microorganisms, it was necessary to improve the method for the quantitative determination of this acid.

The plant microbiome: From ecological foundations to precision microbial engineering for sustainable agriculture

iMeta, EarlyView.
From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

Gut microbiome in pediatric acute pancreatitis and Crohn's disease versus irritable bowel syndrome and healthy controls

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Pediatric acute pancreatitis (AP), Crohn's disease (CD), and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are associated with gut dysbiosis, but differences and similarities between conditions are unknown. We hypothesized that gut microbial ecology would differ across these disorders. Methods Stool was collected from 120 subjects (AP [n = 30], CD

Increased nonsterol isoprenoids, dolichol and ubiquinone, in the Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome: effects of dietary cholesterol

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is an inherited autosomal recessive cholesterol deficiency disorder. Our studies have shown that in SLOS children, urinary mevalonate excretion is normal and reflects hepatic HMG-CoA reductase activity but not ultimate ...

The genetic landscape of congenital diarrheas and very early onset inflammatory bowel disease in the Middle East

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Monogenic causes of congenital diarrheas and enteropathies (CoDE) and very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) are mostly recessive and therefore more prevalent in populations with increased consanguinity rates. To assess the genetic basis of these disorders in a likely high‐prevalence population, we established a multi ...

Increased cholesterol biosynthesis and hypercholesterolemia in mice overexpressing squalene synthase in the liver

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Squalene synthase (SS) is the first committed enzyme for cholesterol biosynthesis, located at a branch point in the mevalonate pathway. To examine the role of SS in the overall cholesterol metabolism, we transiently overexpressed mouse SS in the livers ...
