Quantifying Soil Microbiome Abundance by Metatranscriptomics and Complementary Molecular Techniques—Cross‐Validation and Perspectives

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Linking meta‐omics and biogeochemistry approaches in soils has remained challenging. This study evaluates the use of an internal RNA extraction standard and its potential for making quantitative estimates of a given microbial community size (biomass) in soil metatranscriptomics. We evaluate commonly used laboratory protocols for RNA processing,

Enrichment of Helminth Mitochondrial Genomes From Faecal Samples Using Hybridisation Capture

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT New approaches are urgently needed to enrich rare or low‐abundant DNA in complex samples. Soil‐transmitted helminths (STHs) inhabit heterogeneous environments, including the gastrointestinal tract of their host as adults and are excreted as eggs and larvae in faeces, complicating our understanding of their biology and the use of genetic tools ...

Short‐Term Severe Energy Restriction Promotes Molecular Health and Reverses Aging Signatures in Adults With Prediabetes in the PREVIEW Study

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
Severe short‐term energy restriction in adults with prediabetes led to a significant reduction in circulating proteins linked to inflammation, senescence, and protein turnover. These changes, partly mediated by extracellular vesicles, suggest systemic dietary‐induced benefits beyond glycemic control, including improved aging biomarkers.

Integrative Multiparametric Analysis of Circulating Cell‐Free Nucleic Acids of Plasma in Healthy Individuals During Aging

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
We performed the first integrative multiparametric analysis of plasma circulating cell‐free nucleic acids, including nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, as well as ribosomal, messenger, and micro‐RNAs, in a cohort of 139 healthy individuals. We focused on quantity, integrity, and DNA methylation using assays targeting highly repetitive DNA and highly ...

Chronic Cellular NAD Depletion Activates a Viral Infection‐Like Interferon Response Through Mitochondrial DNA Leakage

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
Chronic NAD depletion in fibroblasts lowers NAD levels, increases mitochondrial mass, and triggers an interferon‐dependent inflammatory response via mtDNA leakage through VDAC1, activating the cGAS‐STING pathway. This links NAD deficiency to metabolic and inflammatory processes, with implications for diseases associated with NAD decline.
