Microbiota-derived aspartate drives pathogenic Enterobacteriaceae expansion in the inflamed gut

This study shows that inflammation increases intestinal aspartate levels, which pathogens like S. Tm and E. coli use via aspA to grow during colitis.

The Effects of Prenatal Nicotine and THC E-Cigarette Exposure on Motor Development in Rats

This study examines how prenatal exposure to nicotine, THC, or their combination via e-cigarettes affects motor development in rat offspring, finding that combined exposure delays sensorimotor development and worsens motor coordination impairments, especially in females.

Pharmacokinetic Effects of Combined Exposure to Nicotine and THC via E-Cigarettes in Pregnant Rats

This study examines the physiological effects of combined nicotine and THC exposure via e-cigarettes in pregnant rats, finding altered drug levels and temperature changes.

Prenatal Alcohol and THC E-Cigarette Exposure Effects on Motor Development

This study examines the effects of prenatal alcohol and THC e-cigarette exposure on motor development in rats, finding delayed sensorimotor development from THC alone and hyperactivity from combined exposure.

Combined Vapor Exposure to THC and Alcohol in Pregnant Rats: Maternal Outcomes and Pharmacokinetic Effects

This study examines the effects of combined THC and alcohol vapor exposure in pregnant rats, finding altered drug metabolism and developmental impacts on offspring.
