From Oral Candidiasis to Candidemia: A Review of Superficial to Invasive Progression

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Recent and limited evidence indicates that oral candidiasis can disseminate Candida albicans throughout the body, leading to invasive candidiasis, such as candidemia, a life‐threatening infection. Considering antifungal resistance and global outbreaks of emergent non‐albicans Candida and related yeasts, murine models help understand dissemination ...

The Dual Role of the Gut Microbiota in Cancer Chemoresistance

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Comparison between Microbiota and Cancer therapy. ABSTRACT Chemoresistance is one of the primary reasons that cancer chemotherapy fails to deliver successful treatment outcomes and contributes to poor overall survival rates for patients with cancer. New research has begun to shed light on the effects of the gut microbiome (GM).

Bacteriophage Resistance, Adhesin’s and Toxin’s Genes Profile of Staphylococcus aureus Causing Infections in Children and Adolescents

Microorganisms
Staphylococcus aureus is a common pathogen, often recovered from children’s infections. Βiofilm formation, antimicrobial resistance and production of adhesins and toxins contribute to its virulence.

De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.

Structural and functional insights from the sequences and complex domain architecture of adhesin-like proteins from Methanobrevibacter smithii and Methanosphaera stadtmanae

Frontiers in Microbiology
Methanogenic archaea, or methanogens, are crucial in guts and rumens, consuming hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and other fermentation products. While their molecular interactions with other microorganisms are not fully understood, genomic sequences provide ...

Pathogenesis of Tuberculosis: Interplay Between Host Antituberculosis Immunity and Immune Evasion Strategies of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis–host interactions and infection outcomes. Following initial infection, alveolar macrophages phagocytose the pathogen, prompting the recruitment of innate immune cells including neutrophils, NK cells, and interstitial macrophages.

MYC in Oncogenesis and Therapeutic Implications

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
The MYC oncogene family (c‐MYC, N‐MYC, L‐MYC) functions as a central transcriptional hub orchestrating cancer progression through multiple interconnected pathways. This graphical abstract illustrates MYC's role as a multidimensional regulator positioned at the nexus of tumor microenvironment remodeling, metabolic reprogramming, and therapeutic ...

Absence of biofilm adhesin proteins changes surface attachment and cell strategy for Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough

Journal of Bacteriology
Ubiquitous in nature, biofilms provide stability in a fluctuating environment and provide protection from stressors. Biofilms formed in industrial processes are exceedingly problematic and costly.

Nanostructured Ti–6Al–4V Reduces Adhesion of Several Bacterial Species: An In Vitro Study

Small Science, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
Alkaline etching transforms Ti–6Al–4V into nanostructured, highly hydrophilic surfaces with thicker oxide layers and selective alloy depletion. These physicochemical changes reduce early bacterial adhesion across multiple species by limiting effective nanoscale contact points, while osteoblast‐like cells retain good attachment and spreading.
