Snake Gut Microbiota as a Source of Anti‐Inflammatory Probiotics: Isolation and Functional Characterization of Two Novel Strains

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study assessed the probiotic potential of intestinal microbiomes from five snake species using metagenomics and in vitro isolation, identifying two promising strains (Lactobacillus johnsonii DA0116 and Limosilactobacillus reuteri DA0218) through comprehensive screening.

Seasonal and Regional Dietary Heterogeneity Is Associated With Gut Microbiota Differentiation in Przewalski's Gazelle (Procapra przewalskii)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Seasonal and regional dietary variation in Przewalski's gazelle was linked to coordinated changes in gut microbiota, functional pathways, and fecal metabolites. Winter diets featured Poaceae, Cyperaceae, and Iridaceae, whereas summer diets shifted toward forb families.

Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Incorporation of Carob Into a High‐Fat Meal Influences Subjective Satiety, Ghrelin and PYY Regulation

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dietary components that influence appetite‐related hormones and subjective satiety may help regulate food intake. Aqueous carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) preparations may have a role in postprandial appetite regulation. Aims To investigate the effects of an aqueous carob preparation incorporated into a high‐fat meal on postprandial ...

Phenotypic characterization of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants that alleviate root growth defects in a vitamin B6 biosynthesis mutant

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Vitamin B6 is a critical molecule for plant metabolism and development. Rsr4‐1, a loss‐of‐function mutant in a vitamin B6 biosynthesis gene, has a distinct short root phenotype. Here we describe five novel suppressor mutants with an rsr4‐1 background that have normalized root growth and distinct phenotypic and molecular characteristics, representing a ...

When biology meets materials science – Interdisciplinary applications of electron microscopy

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Research at the interface between biology and materials science creates challenges for electron microscopists. Everything from the sample preparation to the choice of imaging and analytical techniques and the interpretation of the resulting data refuses to sit comfortably within the domain of one discipline or the other.

Visualising Physcomitrium patens protoplasts with full‐rotation soft X‐ray tomography

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Soft X‐ray tomography (SXT) is a label‐free, high‐resolution imaging modality that is optimal for 3D visualisation of whole hydrated cells. Although SXT has been extensively used to study remodelling in more than 130 mammalian cell lines, its application to plants remains largely unexplored. In this study, we present the first approach at full‐
