DECODING MICROBIOME DYSBIOSIS THROUGH METAGENOMIC ALPHA DIVERSITY

Problems of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases
Background: Sarcoidosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that can affect multiple organs. The aetiology of sarcoidosis is not fully understood, but there is increasing evidence that the microbiome may play a role.

Alpha-diversity of bacterial communities.

, 2018
Chao 1 (A), OTU richness (B) and Shannon index (C) alpha diversity measures of bacterial communities associated to S. muticum across seasons at its northern (VC: Viana do Castelo) and southern distribution in Portugal (PC: Porto Covo). Differentiated are

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Species–area relationships in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands emerge because rarer species are disproportionately favored on larger islands

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The island species–area relationship (ISAR) describes how the number of species increases with increasing size of an island (or island‐like habitat), and is of fundamental importance in island biogeography and conservation. Here, we use a framework based

The microbiome in human skin aging

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Alpha diversity.

, 2019
Alpha diversity was significantly lower among human exposed (HE) relative to human controls (HC) based on the observed features (p = 0.04), Shannon’s index (p = 0.02), and Simpson’s index (p = 0.04).

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...
