The beginning of the 21st century was marked by the advent of disruptive technologies, which ushered an era of groundbreaking advances in fundamental sciences, carried by the great pace at which computational capabilities spread and evolved. But the new ce ...
The metabolic capabilities of the species and the local environment shape the microbial interactions in a community either through the exchange of metabolic products or the competition for the resources. Cells are often arranged in close proximity to each ...
Metabolism is the process by which cells and organisms obtain nutrients and energy to perform their functions. In the last years, many human diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and cardiac diseases, have been associated with altered metabolism. Understan ...
Background Multiple pathophysiological processes have been described in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Their inter-individual variations, complex interrelations, and relevance for clinical manifestation and disease progression remain poorly understood. We hypot ...
Brain metabolism evolves rapidly during early post‐natal development in the rat. While changes in amino acids, energy metabolites, antioxidants or metabolites involved in phospholipid metabolism have been reported in the early stages, neurometabolic change ...
SIRT5 is a member of the sirtuin family of NAD(+)-dependent protein lysine deacylases implicated in a variety of physiological processes. SIRT5 removes negatively charged malonyl, succinyl, and glutaryl groups from lysine residues and thereby regulates mul ...
Organohalides are a class of compounds often considered as persistent pollutants and harmful to environmental and human health. Some bacteria, among which are representatives from the Firmicutes phylum, are capable of using these compounds as terminal acce ...
Obesity is currently a leading global health concern. Treatments include undergoing a weight-loss regimen. However, successful weight-loss is variable, where the heritability of obesity is considered part of the cause. This patient variability to weight-lo ...
