TL;DR: It is proposed that the gut microbiota regulates behaviors in mice via production of neuroactive metabolites, suggesting that gut-brain connections contribute to the pathophysiology of ASD.

TL;DR: The data in this study support that children with ASD have altered metabolite profiles in feces when compared with neurotypical children and warrant further investigation of metabolites in larger cohorts.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that endogenous c-myc increased 13C labeling of ribose sugars, purines and amino acids, indicating partitioning of glucose carbons into C1/folate and pentose phosphate pathways, and increased tricarboxylic acid cycle turnover at the expense of anaplerotic flux.

TL;DR: The goal of this study was to quantify the contribution of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) to U(VI) immobilization by Shewanella sp.

TL;DR: Transcriptomics and proteomics were used to examine the observed increased growth of SCF1 grown on media amended with lignin compared to unamended growth, and suggested the use of lign in as terminal electron acceptor, showing the advantages of a multi-omics approach toward providing insights as to how lignIn may be used in nature by microorganisms coping with poor carbon availability.
