Enhancing probiotic impact: engineering Saccharomyces boulardii for optimal acetic acid production and gastric passage t...
Saccharomyces boulardii has been a subject of growing interest due to its potential as a probiotic microorganism with applications in gastrointestinal health, but the molecular cause for its probiotic potency has remained elusive. The recent discovery that S. boulardii contains unique mutations causing high acetic acid accumulation and inhibition o...

Left bundle branch pacing better preserves ventricular mechanical synchrony than right ventricular pacing: a two-centre ...
...
AIMS: Left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) has been shown to better maintain electrical synchrony compared with right ventricular pacing (RVP), but little is known about its impact on mechanical synchrony. This study investigates whether LBBP better preserves left ventricular (LV) mechanical synchronicity and function compared with RVP. METHODS AND RES...

Viscoelastic materials are most energy efficient when loaded and unloaded at equal rates
Biological springs can be used in nature for energy conservation and ultra-fast motion. The loading and unloading rates of elastic materials can play an important role in determining how the properties of these springs affect movements. We investigate the mechanical energy efficiency of biological springs (American bullfrog plantaris tendons and gu...
Genomic mining of Vibrio parahaemolyticus highlights prevalence of antimicrobial resistance genes and new genetic marker...
Background: Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease (AHPND) causes significant mortality in shrimp aquaculture. The infection is primarily instigated by Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) strains carrying a plasmid encoding the binary toxin PirAB. Yet, comprehension of supplementary virulence factors associated with this relatively recent disease remains...
Contrasting roles of cytochrome P450s in amitraz and chlorfenapyr resistance in the crop pest Tetranychus urticae
...
The molecular mechanisms of amitraz and chlorfenapyr resistance remain only poorly understood for major agricultural pests and vectors of human diseases. This study focusses on a multi-resistant field strain of the crop pest Tetranychus urticae, which could be readily selected in the laboratory to high levels of amitraz and chlorfenapyr resistance....
Intergenerational effects of maternal lifetime stressor exposure on offspring telomere length in Black and White women
...
BackgroundAlthough maternal stressor exposure has been associated with shorter telomere length (TL) in offspring, this literature is based largely on White samples. Furthermore, timing of maternal stressors has rarely been examined. Here, we examined how maternal stressors occurring during adolescence, pregnancy, and across the lifespan related to ...
