Hotter, faster, sicker? Warming shifts the cost of infection from individuals to populations

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examines how temperature alters disease impacts across biological scales in a host–pathogen system. We found infected hosts appear healthiest at warm temperatures, yet populations suffer most. This suggests climate warming may intensify disease impacts for populations in ways traditional individual‐level virulence metrics fail to predict ...

Heatwave‐Resilient Cuticular Microbiota Protect the Leaf Beetle Plagiodera versicolora From Fungal Infection

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing frequency and intensity of heatwaves—extreme thermal events characterized by prolonged supra‐optimal temperatures—exert profound impacts on global ecosystem stability and species interactions. While the disruptive effects of thermal stress on host physiology and gut microbiota are well documented, the role of cuticular ...

Postcode‐Level Variation and Environmental Determinants of Respiratory Allergies in a Large German Cohort

Allergy, EarlyView.
Young children (0–9 years) and residents of urban areas appeared particularly vulnerable to respiratory allergy development and exacerbation. Incidence showed nonlinear associations with PM10, PM2.5, temperature, and alder/birch pollen, while DPMR showed similar patterns, except for NO2 and the interaction O3*NO2.

Environmental Changes and Their Effect on the Airway Microbiome: Implications for Airway Diseases

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive airway diseases, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), represent the two major chronic airway inflammatory diseases. In both conditions, the airways are exposed to a variety of microbial and environmental stimuli.

Response of Remote Tropical West Pacific Islands to Climate Variability: A Multiproxy Record From T‐Lake, Palau, Spanning the Early Holocene to Present

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lake sediments are natural archives of past environmental dynamics and how these systems have responded to past climate variability. Sediment geochemistry, governed by local geology and climate processes, is unique to each lake‐catchment and geochemical proxies must be validated for each study site.

Hair Degradation Patterns in Aquatic and Soil Environments

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hair is a biological material that can provide information in archaeology and forensics. Previous studies have mainly examined changes occurring post‐mortem. In this study, we focused on hair pulled out ante‐mortem. The aim of the study was to identify patterns in the degradation of hair in water and soil.

Rifaximin ameliorates memory impairment and Alzheimer's pathological changes in APP/PS1 mice associated with changes in the gut microbiome–bile acids–serum metabolites networks

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Modifying the brain–gut–microbiota axis has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy against Alzheimer's disease (AD). Whether rifaximin, a non‐absorbed and non‐systemic antibiotic, can be applied to the treatment of AD remains unexplored.

Advances in Spatial Heterogeneity and Cellular Localization Specificity of Intratumoral Bacteria

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Spatial localization of intratumoral bacteria governs their functional roles in tumor progression, metastasis, and treatment responses, with guiding significance for clinical management, as reviewed across three spatial paradigms. ABSTRACT Bacteria in tumors are increasingly recognized to be a part of the tumor microenvironment and their biological ...
