Indirect DNA extraction method suitable for acidic soil with high clay content
MethodsX, 2018 DNA extraction is an essential procedure when investigating microbial communities in environmental samples by sequencing technologies. High clay soils can be problematic as DNA adsorbs to the clay particles and can thereby be preserved from lysed, non ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

The emerging role of DNA methylation in the pathogenicity of bacterial pathogens
Journal of BacteriologyUncovering the mechanisms regulating the pathogenicity of bacterial pathogens can help improve diagnostic capabilities and aid the development of new drugs, both of which are crucial for reducing the burden caused by bacterial infections. In recent years,

Bacterial DNA amplifies neutrophilic inflammation in IL-17-exposed airways
ERJ Open Research, 2023 Background Neutrophilic asthma (NA) is associated with increased airway interleukin (IL)-17 and abnormal bacterial community such as dominance of nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi), particularly during asthma exacerbations.
