mass spectrometry

[Metabolomics] Researchers combined determination of bile acids and molecular lipids by liquid chromatography with ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry, and separately quantified cord blood concentrations of sixteen poly-/per-fluoroalkyl substances in a cohort of Chinese infants in a cross-sectional study.

[Cell Death & Disease] Scientists characterized the gastric microbiome and metabolome profiles of 37 gastric cancer tumor tissues and matched non-tumor tissues using 16s rRNA gene sequencing and ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry, respectively.

[Scientific Reports] Researchers investigated if α-tocopherol phosphate, a promising new antioxidant, could protect against long-wave UVA1 induced cell death and scavenge UVA1 induced reactive oxygen species in a skin cell model.

[Circulation Research] The authors identified the protein syndesmos to specifically interact with cZNF292 in endothelial cells by RNA affinity purification and subsequent mass spectrometry analysis.

[Hepatology] High-throughput RNA-seq was used to identify the differentially expressed circRNAs upon IL-6 stimulation in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma cells.

[Scientific Reports] Providing a 3D permissive environment with epothilone B significantly improved motor neuron-like cell differentiation and maturation of human endometrial stem cells (hEnSCs) and was a promising approach to replace lost neurons after spinal cord injury.
