METTL3 Alleviates Liver Abscess by Enhancing Macrophage Efferocytosis via m6A Methylation of Nrf2 mRNA

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Persistent inflammation and impaired macrophage efferocytosis contribute to liver injury during bacterial liver abscesses (BLA). This study was conducted to investigate whether METTL3 alleviates BLA by promoting macrophage efferocytosis through m6A methylation of Nrf2 mRNA. Materials and Methods METTL3 was overexpressed in the liver

From Rhizosphere to Resistance: Microbe‐Plant Interactions in Eco‐Smart Biocontrol

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Conceptual framework of eco‐smart biocontrol: Root exudates released by plants shape rhizosphere microbial community assembly by selectively recruiting beneficial microorganisms. These microbes suppress phytopathogens through direct mechanisms such as antibiosis, parasitism, enzyme production, and niche competition, while simultaneously activating ...

The Salmonella Pathogenicity Island 2-Encoded Type III Secretion System Is Essential for the Survival of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium in Free-Living Amoebae [PDF]

, 2009
Free-living amoebae represent a potential reservoir and predator of Salmonella enterica. Through the use of type III secretion system (T3SS) mutants and analysis of transcription of selected T3SS genes, we demonstrated that the Salmonella pathogenicity ...

Drivers of Soil Community Composition in Apple Orchards: Insights From Environmental Metabarcoding

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Despite uniform management practices, single orchards of the 26 studied had only a small part of total diversity of prokaryotes, protists and fungi. Community assembly was governed primarily by stochastic processes and turnover dominated community composition for all organismal groups. ABSTRACT Soil biodiversity in apple orchards plays a vital role for
