Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the leading cause of chronic liver diseases worldwide, necessitating urgent novel oral treatments. In this study, β-cell expansion factor A (BefA) was evaluated in a murine NAFLD model induced by high-fat diet (HFD). Our results revealed that BefA significantly reduced body weight (36.

Background: The oncogenesis and progression of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a complicated process involving several key molecules and factors, yet whether microbiota are present in EOC, and their role in the development of EOC, remains greatly unknown.
Methods: In this study, 20 patients were enrolled to compare the similarities and differences of intratumour microbiota among patients with epithelial benign ovarian tumours (EBOTs) and patients with EOC based on the high-throughput sequencing method. Subsequently, we further isolated the specific EOC-related bacteria and defined as a key strain in facilitating EOC progression.
