Canagliflozin attenuates kidney injury, gut-derived toxins, and gut microbiota imbalance in high-salt diet-fed Dahl salt-sensitive rats by Lili He, Qingjuan Zuo, Sai Ma, Guorui Zhang, Zhongli Wang, Tingting Zhang, Jianlong Zhai, Yifang Guo

“…Purpose To investigate the effects of canagliflozin (20 mg/kg) on Dahl salt-sensitive (DSS) rat gut microbiota and salt-sensitive hypertension-induced kidney injury and further explore its possible mechanism.Methods Rats were fed a high-salt diet to induce hypertension and kidney injury, and physical and physiological indicators were measured afterwards. This study employed 16S rRNA sequencing technology and liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS)-based metabolic profiling combined with advanced differential and association analyses to investigate the correlation between the microbiome and the metabolome in male DSS rats.Results A high-salt diet disrupted the balance of the intestinal flora and increased toxic metabolites (methyhistidines, creatinine, homocitrulline, and indoxyl sulfate), resulting in severe kidney damage. …”

Two sexually compatible monokaryons from a heterokaryotic Lentinula edodes strain respond differently to heat stress by Yuan Guo, Wenyu Jiao, Yajie Zhang, Meiting Tan, Qi Gao, Yu Liu, Shouxian Wang

“…BackgroundDespite the extensive research conducted on heat responses of Lentinula edodes heterokaryotic cells, the responses of the two sexually compatible monokaryons to heat stress (HS) remain largely unknown.MethodsTo bridge this gap, we examined the nucleus-specific (SP3 and SP30) heat resistant mechanisms using an integrated physiological, metabolomic and transcriptomic approach.ResultsThe results showed that HS elicited the boost of ROS and hampered mycelium growth for both monokaryons. …”
