Fumarate hydratase is a critical metabolic regulator of hematopoietic stem cell functions.
(2017-03-06)
Strict regulation of stem cell metabolism is essential for tissue functions and tumor suppression. In this study, we investigated the role of fumarate hydratase (Fh1), a key component of the mitochondrial tricarboxylic ...
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids critically regulate behaviour and gut microbiota development in adolescence and adulthood.
(2017-01)
BACKGROUND: Neurodevelopment is strongly influenced by maternal and early-postnatal diet. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) are vital structural and functional components of the developing brain. The gut ...
Deficiency of essential dietary n-3 PUFA disrupts the caecal microbiome and metabolome in mice.
(2017-12)
n-3 PUFA are lipids that play crucial roles in immune-regulation, cardio-protection and neurodevelopment. However, little is known about the role that these essential dietary fats play in modulating caecal microbiota ...
A genome-wide screen identifies YAP/WBP2 interplay conferring growth advantage on human epidermal stem cells.
(2017-03-23)
Individual human epidermal cells differ in their self-renewal ability. To uncover the molecular basis for this heterogeneity, we performed genome-wide pooled RNA interference screens and identified genes conferring a clonal ...
