An investigation into the effects of a simulated human gastro-intestinal tract has on Bacillus cereus and Bacillus weihenstephanensis viability and pathogenicity [PDF]

, 2012
Bacillus cereus is one of the known causes of diarrhoeal food poisoning. In their natural environment of soil surviving as spores facilitates their colonisation of raw food ingredients enabling their access to the food chain.

Short- and Long-Term Biomarkers for Bacterial Robustness: A Framework for Quantifying Correlations between Cellular Indicators and Adaptive Behavior [PDF]

, 2010
The ability of microorganisms to adapt to changing environments challenges the prediction of their history-dependent behavior. Cellular biomarkers that are quantitatively correlated to stress adaptive behavior will facilitate our ability to predict the ...

Omnidirectional Interaction Networks Modulating Phenotypic Plasticity in the Gut Microbiota Towards Ulcerative Colitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study employs a spouse‐pair cohort design and an idopNetwork model that integrates evolutionary game theory, predator‐prey dynamics, and developmental modularity theory to reconstruct maximally informative microbial interaction networks. This approach reveals how interspecies interactions drive the phenotypic plasticity of the gut microbiota in ...

A Novel Immunosuppressive Effector Functions as a Bio‐Adjuvant to Enhance the Activity of Bacillus Thuringiensis and Chemical Insecticides

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A previously unrecognized link between quorum sensing and host immune suppression is revealed in Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt). The PlcR‐PapR system induces the novel immunosuppressive effector PisP, which inhibits DAF‐16 nuclear translocation and downstream immune defenses, thereby promoting Bt pathogenicity.

Next Generation Antimicrobial Coatings for High Touch Surfaces: Application, Benefits, Risks, Environmental Impacts and Sustainability Aspects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial coatings for high touch surfaces promise infection control but are too often validated only in the lab. This review shows that active‐agent release governs both human toxicity and environmental impact and argues that durability and real‐world performance must be primary design criteria, placing a safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework ...

Bacillus Licheniformis‐Induced Cognitive Decline in Mice Linking Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis, Metabolic Perturbations, and Hippocampal Neuroinflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic oral administration of specific probiotic strains triggers gut microbiota dysbiosis and systemic metabolic perturbations in mice. Multi‐omics profiling reveals subsequent hippocampal glial remodeling and neuroinflammation, which are linked to cognitive impairment.
