Obesity strikes below the belt: Study reveals link between obesity and male infertility

The influence of obesity on male fertility is still under debate. In the present investigation, researchers scrutinized semen samples from both obese individuals and those of normal weight. The aim was to explore the relationship between obesity, the length of sperm telomeres, levels of mRNA associated with autophagy, and diverse semen characteristics.

Scientists unveil a metabolic Achilles' heel in pancreatic cancer

Research unveils the significance of uridine as a metabolic fuel in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) cells under glucose-deprived conditions. Uridine utilization, mediated by uridine phosphorylase 1 (UPP1), supports redox balance, survival, and proliferation in PDA, highlighting its potential as a novel therapeutic target in the treatment of this resistant cancer.

How the gut microbiome supports iron uptake by intestinal regulatory T-cells

Research paper discusses the relationship between iron deficiencies and immune tolerance in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. The study shows that high cellular iron levels fostered by pentanoate, a short-chain fatty acid produced by intestinal microbiota, are necessary for the homeostasis of regulatory T cells in the intestine, and iron deficiencies in Treg can result in lethal autoimmune disease.
