Interkingdom Interactions in the Gut: Ecological Mechanisms, Homeostasis, and Therapeutic Modulation

open access: yesGut Medicine, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 23-39, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The gut microbiota constitutes a highly complex and dynamic ecosystem that profoundly influences host physiology, metabolism, and immunity. This review provides an integrative overview of the mechanisms through which gut microorganisms—particularly bacteria and fungi—interact with host cells and with each other to maintain intestinal ...

Pathogenic Escherichia coli Hijacks GTPase-Activated p21-Activated Kinase for Actin Pedestal Formation

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli and enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EPEC and EHEC, respectively) are extracellular pathogens that reorganize the host cell cytoskeleton to form “actin pedestals” beneath the tightly adherent bacteria, a critical step in ...

Genomic Epidemiology and Machine Learning–Based Drug Discovery for Antimicrobial Resistant Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study integrates genomic epidemiology and machine learning–based virtual screening to identify novel therapeutic candidates, Alatamide and Isosativan, with strong binding stability against multidrug‐resistant diarrheagenic Escherichia coli virulence targets, highlighting computational drug discovery as a promising strategy to combat antimicrobial ...

Survival and recovery of Escherichia coli O157:H7 during starvation at sub-optimal temperatures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is an important foodborne pathogen with a dual lifestyle of growth within a host and persistence in non-host environments. Environmental survival of E.

Animal Models of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Infection.

open access: yes, 2020
The first major outbreaks caused by enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) raised public and medical awareness of the risks associated with acquiring this potentially deadly infection. The widespread presence of these organisms in the environment, the

Fate of the H-NS-repressed bgl operon in evolution of Escherichia coli. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In the enterobacterial species Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica, expression of horizontally acquired genes with a higher than average AT content is repressed by the nucleoid-associated protein H-NS.

Facing the D‐Ilemma of Heat Resistance Parameters: From Pathogen Risk Assessment to Surrogate Selection Challenges in the Fruit Juice and Nectar Production

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the years, numerous D‐ and z‐values have been published in the scientific literature. While these values initially appear to be valid criteria for assessing and comparing the heat resistance of different microorganisms under the same conditions or the same microorganism under different conditions, this is not always the case.

The yad and yeh fimbrial loci influence gene expression and virulence in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7

open access: yesmSphere
Fimbriae are essential virulence factors for many bacterial pathogens. Fimbriae are extracellular structures that attach bacteria to surfaces. Thus, fimbriae mediate a critical step required for any pathogen to establish infection by anchoring a ...

Beer Production With Umbu (Spondias tuberosa) Using Conventional and Nonconventional Yeast

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the fermentation performance and bioactive properties of beers produced by Pichia kluyveri L131 and commercial Saccharomyces pastorianus, individually and in coculture, in wort enriched with umbu pulp. Fermentation profiles were assessed over 12 days, focusing on yeast population dynamics, carbohydrate consumption, and ...

Replication of plasmids derived from Shiga toxinconverting bacteriophages in starved Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The pathogenicity of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) depends on the expression of stx genes that are located on lambdoid prophages. Effective toxin production occurs only after prophage induction, and one may presume that replication of the
