TL;DR: The impact of 30 unequivocal CD-risk loci, each tagged by a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the mucosa-associated bacteria in healthy individuals was studied.

TL;DR: It is shown that B1 auxotrophy, the need for exogenous B1 or precursors for survival, is widespread among wild bacterioplankton, and a hitherto overlooked influence of B1/precursor availability on aquatic biochemical cycling is suggested.

TL;DR: This study conducts metagenomics binning of water samples collected over major environmental gradients in the Baltic Sea and uses machine-learning to predict the placement of genome clusters along niche gradients based on the content of functional genes.

TL;DR: Neither hyperglycaemia nor hyperinsulinaemia per se are primarily responsible for the growth of islets in obese-hyperglycaemic mice, and the present data suggest that the genetic background is very important for morphological and functional responses of the islets to a prolonged period of hyper glycaemic stress.

TL;DR: A combination of two potentially cell-damaging mechanisms (formation of oxygen radicals and hypomethylation) aggravated the retardation of cell growth compared to only one of these mechanisms being present, suggesting that several mechanisms of homocysteine-induced cell damage contribute to the increased rate of the atherogenic process observed in hyperhomocysteinemia.
