Gut microbiome‐derived metabolites show promise in cancer research and therapy
The metabolites produced by the gut microbiome, which are subject to regulation by multiple factors, play a pivotal role in the progression of various types of cancer. These metabolites not only function as potential biomarkers for the early detection and monitoring of tumor development, but also actively participate in cancer therapeutic processes ...

Expression and molecular characterization of an intriguing hyaluronan synthase (HAS) from the symbiont “Candidatus Mycoplasma liparidae” in snailfish [PDF]
Background Hyaluronan synthases (HASs) are ubiquitous in living organisms, and the hyaluronic acid (HA) synthesized by them are important to their body and well used in medicine, cosmetics and other fields.

Characteristics of Group A Streptococcal Variants Treated with Mitomycin C [PDF]
ABSTRACTTransfers of Streptococcus pyogenes strain T12 in Todd–Hewitt broth containing stepwise increases in amounts of mitomycin C (MC) gave rise to slight changes of their colonial appearances. Variants thus obtained were examined for antibiotic and bile resistances; production of streptolysin‐S, ‐O and deoxyribonuclease; growth in alkaline medium ...

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) exposure disrupts oocyte maturation and early embryonic development. This study elucidates the mechanism by which enhanced O‐GlcNAcylation of FOXK1 underlies the PFOS‐induced reduction of progesterone levels in granulosa cells and the disturbance of follicular microenvironment.

Engineering Orthogonal Polypeptide GalNAc-Transferase and UDP-Sugar Pairs [PDF]
O-Linked α-N-acetylgalactosamine (O-GalNAc) glycans constitute a major part of the human glycome. They are difficult to study because of the complex interplay of 20 distinct glycosyltransferase isoenzymes that initiate this form of glycosylation, the ...
