Disentangling the age-related manner in the associations between gut microbiome and women’s health: a multi-cohort microbiome study

Gut Microbes, 2023
Women’s health encompasses life-course healthcare, and mounting evidence emphasizes the pivotal contribution of gut microbiota. Therefore, understanding the temporal dynamics of gut microbiota and how age influences disease-gut microbiota associations is

Maternal intake of fatty acids during pregnancy and allergies in the offspring [PDF]

, 2011
Fatty acids (FA) are known to have a number of immunological effects and, accordingly, may play a role in the development of allergic diseases. We investigated the effect of maternal intake of FA during pregnancy on the risk of allergic rhinitis, wheeze ...

Vascular dysfunction induced in offspring by maternal dietary fat involves altered arterial polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis

, 2012
Nutrition during development affects risk of future cardiovascular disease. Relatively little is known about whether the amount and type of fat in the maternal diet affect vascular function in the offspring.

Functional Investigation of a Novel PIWIL4 Mutation in Nonobstructive Azoospermia During the First Wave of Spermatogenesis

Biomolecules
PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that are almost exclusively expressed in germ cells to silence harmful transposons to maintain genome stability. PIWIL4 is guided by its associated piRNAs to transposable elements, where it recruits

Effects of Offspring and Parental Inbreeding on Parent-Offspring Communication

The American Naturalist, 2018
There is mounting evidence that inbreeding can have complex effects on social interactions among inbred and outbred individuals. Here, we investigate effects of offspring and maternal inbreeding on parent-offspring communication in the burying beetle Nicrophorus vespilloides.

The mystery of ornate offspring [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Human curiosity, arguably our species’ best feature, invites speculation about nature’s myriad puzzles. Darwin’s twin theories of selection (natural and sexual) provided a solid foundation for understanding how complex structures and behavior can evolve from simpler versions without divine assistance.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...
