The generalist inside the specialist: gut bacterial communities of two insect species feeding on toxic plants are dominated by enterococcus sp. [PDF]
, 2016 Some specialist insects feed on plants rich in secondary compounds, which pose a major selective pressure on both the phytophagous and the gut microbiota. However, microbial communities of toxic plant feeders are still poorly characterized. Here, we show

Natural products targeting tumour angiogenesis
British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 10, Page 2094-2136, May 2025.Abstract Tumour angiogenesis is the formation of new blood vessels to support the growth of a tumour. This process is critical for tumour progression and metastasis, making it an attractive approach to cancer therapy. Natural products derived from plants, animals or microorganisms exert anti‐angiogenic properties and can be used to inhibit tumour ...

Lettuce fortification through vitamin B12‐producing bacteria – proof of concept study
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 3343-3354, April 2025.Abstract BACKGROUND Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) can be produced de novo only by certain bacteria and archaea. It plays a crucial role in the health of animals and humans, which obtain it only through diet, mainly from animal products. This study aimed to identify endophytic bacterial strains capable of synthesizing vitamin B12 and enriching edible plants ...
