Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) has seen a dramatic rise in incidence in developed countries over the past three decades. Early detection of its precursors-gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Barrett's esophagus (BE), and high-grade dysplasia (HG...
UNLABELLED: Hydrocarbon seepage in marine sediments exerts selective pressure on benthic microbiomes. Accordingly, microbial community composition in these sediments can reflect the presence of hydrocarbons, with specific groups being more prolific i...
BACKGROUND: Identifying key characteristics of unknown suspects, such as age, height, and drug use, is essential for advancing forensic investigations.
Hyperuricemia (HUA) and gout result from imbalances in uric acid metabolism and are closely associated with the gut microbiota. Advanced analytical methods facilitate the exploration of microbiota complexity. In this study, 16S rRNA sequencing data f...
The DNA binding of most Escherichia coli Transcription Factors (TFs) has not been comprehensively mapped, and few have models that can quantitatively predict binding affinity. We report the global mapping of in vivo DNA binding for 139 E. coli TFs us...
Quantification of the absolute microbial abundance in a human stool sample is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of the microbial ecosystem, but this information is lost upon metagenomic sequencing. While several methods exist to measure absol...

BACKGROUND: Yin-deficiency constitution (YinDC) refers to a traditional Chinese medicine concept, characterized by an imbalance state that includes an imbalance in the gut microbiota, resulting from a relative deficiency of Yin fluids within the body...
Nucleic-acid biosensors have emerged as useful tools for on-farm detection of foodborne pathogens on fresh produce. Such tools are specifically designed to be user-friendly so that a producer can operate them with minimal training and in a few simple...
