Gut Microbiota Modulation by Inulin Improves Metabolism and Ovarian Function in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work proposes a novel strategy targeting gut microbiota for managing polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Inulin, a gut microbiota modulator, notably boosts the growth of short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs)‐producers, represented by Bifidobacterium, thereby improving glucolipid metabolism and ovarian function of PCOS through suppressing the inflammatory ...

Antler tine homologies and cervid systematics: A review of past and present controversies with special emphasis on Elaphurus davidianus

The Anatomical Record, Volume 306, Issue 1, Page 5-28, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Antlers are the most conspicuous trait of cervids and have been used in the past to establish a classification of their fossil and living representatives. Since the availability of molecular data, morphological characters have generally become less important for phylogenetic reconstructions.

SIMS analyses of the oldest known assemblage of microfossils document their taxon-correlated carbon isotope compositions

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance Although the existence of the Archaea (one of three all-encompassing domains of life) in the Archean Eon (4,000 to 2,500 million years ago) has been inferred from carbon isotopes in bulk samples of ancient rocks, their cellular fossils have ...

Gut Microbiota Colonization in Early Life Influences Susceptibility to Adulthood Hepatic Lipid Accumulation in High‐Fat‐Diet‐Fed Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study indicates that perinatal antibiotic exposure elevates susceptibility to high‐fat‐diet‐induced hepatic lipid accumulation via disrupting early‐life gut microbiota colonization. The decreased Lactobacillus colonization inhibits primary‐to‐secondary bile acid conversion, lowering secondary bile acids, enhancing adulthood intestinal lipid ...

A review of helochelydrid shell material from late Albian to early Cenomanian greensands of Southern England, United Kingdom

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract A number of helochelydrid turtle shell remains were recovered over the course of the 19th century from mid‐Cretaceous sediments throughout Southern England, including the poorly figured and described types of Trachydermochelys phlyctaenus from the Cambridge Greensand of Cambridgeshire, Plastremys lata from the Upper Greensand of the Isle of ...

Comparison of taxon‐specific versus general locus sets for targeted sequence capture in plant phylogenomics

Applications in Plant Sciences, 2018
Premise of the Study Targeted sequence capture can be used to efficiently gather sequence data for large numbers of loci, such as single‐copy nuclear loci.

Machine Learning‐Enabled Drug‐Induced Toxicity Prediction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Unexpected toxicity accounts for 30% of drug development failures. This review highlights ML innovations in predicting drug‐induced toxicity, emphasizing comparative analyses, interpretable algorithms, and multi‐source data integration. It categorizes toxicity types, summarizes ML models, and organizes key databases, offering strategies to address ...

Variation and development of the turtle chondrocranium, with a description of the common musk turtle (Sternotherus odoratus, Kinosternidae, Cryptodira, Testudines)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Based on histological cross‐sections, the chondrocranium of the common musk turtle (Sternotherus odoratus) was reconstructed, described, and compared with other turtles. It differs from that of other turtle chondrocrania by possessing elongated, slightly dorsally orientated nasal capsules with three dorsolateral foramina, which might be ...

Dimethyl Itaconate Alleviates Escherichia coli‐Induced Endometritis Through the Guanosine‐CXCL14 Axis via Increasing the Abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The research findings indicate that dimethyl itaconate (DI) alleviates Escherichia coli (E. coli) induced endometritis by modulating the gut microbiota and enriching the abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae, thereby increasing the production of guanosine.
