With the rapid development of systems biology technology, there is a deeper understanding
of the molecular biological mechanisms and physiological characteristics of …

Genetically identical cells are known to differ in many physiological parameters such as
growth rate and drug tolerance. Metabolic specialization is believed to be a cause of such …

A meta-analysis of literature data with statistical analysis concerning the effect of lichen
substances on the inhibition of 10 yeast species (Candida albicans, C. dubliniensis, C …

Background For some ICU patients, an artificial airway must be established with an
endotracheal tube, but Candida albicans can easily adhere to the tube surface and form a …

The DNA replication influences the inheritance of genetic information in the DNA life cycle.
As the distribution of replication origins (ORIs) is the major determinant to precisely regulate …

In a prior study, we elucidated the biofilm formation of Saccharomyces boulardii on glass
surfaces during beer bottle aging. Here, we supplemented brewing wort with curcumin at 25 …

Cellular adaptation to stressful environments such as starvation is essential to the survival of
microbial communities, but the uniform response of the cell community may lead to entire …

To persist in variable environments, populations of microorganisms have to survive periods
of starvation and be able to restart cell division in nutrient-rich conditions. Typically …

When organisms are stimulated by external stresses, oxidative stress is induced, resulting in
the production of large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that inhibit cell growth …

Developing precise definitions and fine categories is an important part of the scientific
endeavour, enabling fidelity of transfers of knowledge and the progress of science …
