In this study, we investigated the genomic characteristics and bioactive metabolite profiles of three novel strains that were isolated from the intestinal tracts of healthy carp (). Strain identification and whole-genome sequencing were performed before analysis. Among the three novel strains, R1 and R4 were classified as , and strain R5 was classified as . Genome mining revealed a repertoire of secondary metabolites, including bacillaene, bacillibactin, bacilysin, difficidin, and fengycin, which likely contribute to the probiotic potential of these strains. The metabolite profiles were further characterized using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry, with fengycins and bacillibactin specifically isolated and identified. Additionally, the presence of genetic markers associated with antimicrobial resistance was assessed, and these gene profiles were reconstructed. These strains represent promising candidates for the development of novel feed additives for aquaculture.

Background: There is a higher prevalence of heart rate corrected QT (QTc) prolongation in patients with diabetes and metabolic syndrome. QT interval genome-wide association studies have identified candidate genes for cardiac energy metabolism, and experimental studies suggest that polyunsaturated fatty acids have direct effects on ion channel function. Despite this, there has been limited study of metabolite concentration relationships with QT intervals.

Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), characterized by impaired spermatogenesis and the complete absence of sperm in the ejaculate, represents one of the most severe forms of male infertility. Current diagnostic strategies rely on invasive procedures such as testicular sperm extraction, underscoring the urgent need for reliable, non-invasive alternatives. In the present study, we performed untargeted metabolomic profiling of human seminal plasma to identify biomarker panels capable of stratifying azoospermia subtypes through a stepwise approach.

Rationale: Chrysotoxine, a bibenzyl derivative from the stems of Dendrobium medicinal herbs, has recently emerged as a promising therapeutic candidate for cervical cancer. This study aimed to characterize chrysotoxine metabolites across multiple hepatocyte species and in rat urine.
Methods: Metabolites were identified and characterized using liquid chromatography coupled with benchtop Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-Orbitrap-MS/MS) combined with Compound Discoverer software.

Background: Soil salinization represents a critical global challenge to agricultural productivity, profoundly impacting crop yields and threatening food security. Plant salt-responsive is complex and dynamic, making it challenging to fully elucidate salt tolerance mechanism and leading to gaps in our understanding of how plants adapt to and mitigate salt stress.
Results: Here, we conduct high-resolution time-series transcriptomic and metabolomic profiling of the extremely salt-tolerant maize inbred line, HLZY, and the salt-sensitive elite line, JI853.
