Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis in Preeclampsia: Mechanisms, Biomarkers, and Probiotic‐Based Interventions
Background: This study aimed to investigate the impact of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) on gut microbiota composition and serum inflammatory factors in a murine model. Methods: Female C57BL/6J mice (n = 60) were divided into four groups: control (Con), negative (Neg), normal transplantation (NT), and preeclampsia transplantation (PET). The Con

The Effects of Tillage, Glyphosate, and Genetic Modification on Bacterial Root Endophyte Composition in Zea Mays [PDF]
The community structure of the endophytic bacteria in Zea mays roots was examined for the potential effects of glyphosate application, tillage strategies, and whether or not the corn plant in question was of an organic or glyphosate-resistant variety ...

Genome-wide mapping reveals single-origin chromosome replication in Leishmania, a eukaryotic microbe [PDF]
Background DNA replication initiates on defined genome sites, termed origins. Origin usage appears to follow common rules in the eukaryotic organisms examined to date: all chromosomes are replicated from multiple origins, which display variations in ...
