Abstract Background Aging is accompanied by a chronic low‐grade inflammatory process, known as inflammaging, as well as immunosenescence, an age‐related decline and dysregulation of immune function, and cellular senescence, a process in which cells enter a state of irreversible growth arrest while actively releasing pro‐inflammatory factors.

ABSTRACT Aquaculture intensification is increasingly constrained by high water demand, nutrient‐rich effluents and disease risk, increasing interest in biofloc technology (BFT) as a waste‐recycling, low‐exchange production model. However, BFT performance depends strongly on the carbon source used to adjust the carbon‐to‐nitrogen (C/N) ratio and ...

The Silent Link: Exploring the Impact of Periodontal Diseases on Head and Neck Carcinogenesis
ABSTRACT Objectives Oral dysbiosis can accelerate the progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) by fostering a pro‐inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and metabolically altered environment. This narrative review examines the relationships between periodontitis‐associated bacteria and HNSCC, focusing on their impact on oncogenic pathways,

Postbiotic Supernatants From Psychobiotic Strains Modulate Antioxidant and Serotonergic Responses
Cell‐free postbiotic supernatants obtained from psychobiotic strains exhibit strain‐dependent antioxidant and serotonergic effects. SCFA‐rich metabolites enhance antioxidant protection and modulate serotonin release in enterochromaffin cells, supporting their potential as functional ingredients for gut and brain health.

Nanoshell Fabrication Techniques for Probiotic Encapsulation: A Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Probiotics, beneficial microorganisms, confer numerous health benefits when administered. However, their efficacy is hindered by harsh gut conditions, including acidity, bile acids, and enzymatic degradation. To overcome these challenges, encapsulation and nanoshell technology have emerged as a pivotal strategy to enhance probiotic stability ...

Antagonistic activity expressed by Shigella sonnei: identification of a putative new bacteriocin
Bacteriocins are antibacterial, proteinaceous substances that mediate microbial dynamics. Bacteriocin production is a highly disseminated property among all major lineages of bacteria, including Shigella.

Biosynthesis and transcriptional analysis of thurincin H, a tandem repeated bacteriocin genetic locus, produced by Bacillus thuringiensis SF361 [PDF]
Thurincin H, a bacteriocin produced by Bacillus thuringiensis SF361 isolated from honey, strongly inhibited the growth of Bacillus cereus F4552. The bacteriocin was purified by 65% ammonium sulfate precipitation of the culture supernatant, followed by ...
