From Dysbiosis to Disease: How Vaginal Microbiota Shape Group B Streptococcus Pathogenesis
ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Lactobacillus crispatus plays a critical role in the vaginal microbiome. Limiting glucose shifts metabolism toward HMO consumption and amino acid metabolism. These actions enable alkali production and competition. Homeostasis, characterized by dense Lactobacilli colonization and suppression of pathogens, provides resistance to dysbiosis.

Cathelicidin Insufficiency in Patients with Fatal Leptospirosis
PLOS Pathogens, 2016 Leptospirosis causes significant morbidity and mortality worldwide; however, the role of the host immune response in disease progression and high case fatality (>10-50%) is poorly understood. We conducted a multi-parameter investigation of patients with acute leptospirosis to identify mechanisms associated with case fatality.

Identification of a novel cathelicidin gene in the rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss
, 2005 We report the cloning of a novel antimicrobial peptide gene, termed rtCATH_1, found in the rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss. The predicted 216-residue rtCATH_1 prepropeptide consists of three domains: a 22-residue signal peptide, a 128-residue cathelin-
