Cheese production involves various lactic acid bacteria (LAB) that break down lactose, milk proteins, and fats, producing key nutrients and influencing the cheese's flavor. They form communities that play a crucial role in determining the cheese's organoleptic properties. The composition of cheeses' microbial communities is shaped by physicochemical factors (e.

The imbalance between estrogen and androgen may be an important mechanism of BPH, but the specific mechanism remains unclear. We used mixed sustained-release pellets made of testosterone and estradiol (T + E) to stimulate the establishment of a BPH rat model. Compared to the prostate hyperplasia rat model using only androgens, the new prostate hyperplasia rat model can be observed to have better macroscopic and pathological characteristics of prostate hyperplasia.

Potatoes are a critical staple crop worldwide, yet their yield is significantly constrained by salt stress. Understanding and enhancing salt tolerance in potatoes is crucial for ensuring food security. This study evaluated the salt tolerance of 17 diverse potato varieties using principal component analysis, membership function analysis, cluster analysis, and stepwise regression analysis.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, but the primary factors triggering this inflammation remain unclear. Extracellular or cell-free DNA (exDNA) originates from virtually all tissues, being released during cell death, and stimulates the innate immune system. Our study was designed as an observational, cross-sectional cohort study of children with CKD (both before and after kidney transplantation) and controls to analyze associations between exDNA, markers of inflammation, and cardiovascular health.

Packaging of DNA into viruses in some cases involves remarkably sophisticated electrical control mechanisms. One example is how the T4 bacteriophage uses an electrostatically driven motor to pump DNA into the viral capsid.
