Metabolomics and proteomics reveal blocking argininosuccinate synthetase 1 alleviates colitis in mice

The management of ulcerative colitis (UC) remains challenging due to the complexity of its etiology. Here, the authors establish that argininosuccinate synthetase 1 (ASS1) and its metabolite arginine are pivotal inducers of UC, through the triggering of mTOR and iNOS activation, and the induction of gut microbiota dysbiosis by metabolomics and proteomics. Inhibition of ASS1 by C-01 provides a viable strategy for the treatment of UC.

Phylogenomic profiles of whole-genome duplications in Poaceae and landscape of differential duplicate retention and losses among major Poaceae lineages

Grasses share a whole-genome duplication called rho, but the adaptive implications are unclear. Here, the authors conduct phylogenomic and phylotranscriptomic analyses of 363 grasses, identifying additional whole-genome duplications and finding that duplicates are implicated in environmental adaptations or morphogenesis.
