Comparative genomics provides structural and functional insights into Bacteroides RNA biology
Most of our knowledge of bacterial regulatory RNAs and their associated proteins stems from model organisms such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica. In contrast, the RNA biology of Bacteroides spp.—an important component of the human gut microbiota—is significantly understudied.

The Mystery of Exosomes in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the common pregnancy complications, which increases the risk of short‐term and long‐term adverse consequences in both the mother and offspring. However, the pathophysiological mechanism of GDM is still poorly understood.

Redox stress defines the small artery vasculopathy of hypertension: how do we bridge the bench-to-bedside gap? [PDF]
Although convincing experimental evidence demonstrates the importance of vascular reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), oxidative stress, and perturbed redox signaling as causative processes in the vasculopathy of hypertension, this has not ...

Transposon Insertion Sequencing Elucidates Novel Gene Involvement in Susceptibility and Resistance to Phages T4 and T7 in Escherichia coli O157. [PDF]
Experiments using bacteriophage (phage) to infect bacterial strains have helped define some basic genetic concepts in microbiology, but our understanding of the complexity of bacterium-phage interactions is still limited.
