Microorganisms are sensitive indicators of aquatic environmental quality and ecosystem stability. Caohai Wetland, a typical subtropical plateau karst wetland suffering ecological degradation under combined natural-anthropogenic disturbances, is one of the three major plateau fres...

Sex-specific effects of early-life arsenic exposure on body weight, arsenic metabolism, and gut microbiome stability in C57BL/6J mice

Arsenic exposure in early-life is strongly linked to health risks for mothers and their offspring. Although the mechanisms by which arsenic induces the toxicity and health impacts remain unclear, the gut microbiome makes key contributions to the metabolism of arsenic. This study...
