Regulation of translation in haloarchaea: 5'- and 3'-UTRs are essential and have to functionally interact in vivo. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
Recently a first genome-wide analysis of translational regulation using prokaryotic species had been performed which revealed that regulation of translational efficiency plays an important role in haloarchaea.

Microbiota-assisted iron uptake promotes immune tolerance in the intestine

Nature Communications, 2023
Iron deficiencies are the most common nonenteric syndromes observed in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, but little is known about their impacts on immune tolerance.

The antidiabetic drug metformin aids bacteria in hijacking vitamin B12 from the environment through RcdA

Communications Biology, 2023
The antidiabetic drug, metformin, helps E. coli gather vitamin B12 from the environment by increasing the expressions of transporter genes in a RcdA-dependent manner.

The gut microbiota-bile acid axis links the positive association between chronic insomnia and cardiometabolic diseases

Nature Communications, 2022
Chronic insomnia is associated with cardiometabolic diseases. Here, in two clinical cohorts (n = 7,931), authors show that gut microbiota-bile acid axis may be an intervention target to attenuate the impact of chronic insomnia on cardiometabolic health.

Epitherapy and immune checkpoint blockade: using epigenetic reinvigoration of exhausted and dysfunctional T cells to reimburse immunotherapy response

BMC Immunology, 2020
Background Cancer cells subvert natural immunosuppression by upregulating the expression of checkpoint proteins and their ligands. For example, tumor cells expressing programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) induce immune cell tolerance to cancers, thereby ...

Canonical and early lineage-specific stem cell types identified in planarian SirNeoblasts

Cell Regeneration, 2021
Background The pluripotent stem cells in planarians, a model for tissue and cellular regeneration, remain further identification. We recently developed a method to enrich piwi-1+ cells in Schmidtea mediterranea, by staining cells with SiR-DNA and Cell ...

Preferential translation of p53 target genes

RNA Biology, 2022
The transcription factor p53 exerts its tumour suppressive effect through transcriptional activation of numerous target genes controlling cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, cellular senescence and DNA repair. In addition, there is evidence that p53 influences
