Fungal infections after liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The risk factors for development of invasive fungal infections after liver transplantation were (1) longer duration of treatment with nonprophylactic IV antibiotics, (2) longer cumulative surgical time and a higher number of laparotomies, (3) an ...

Bidirectional cross-kingdom RNAi and fungal uptake of external RNAs confer plant protection

open access: yesNature Plants, 2016
Aggressive fungal pathogens such as Botrytis and Verticillium spp. cause severe crop losses worldwide. We recently discovered that Botrytis cinerea delivers small RNAs (Bc–sRNAs) into plant cells to silence host immunity genes.

Tailoring a Functional Synthetic Microbial Community Alleviates Fusobacterium nucleatum‐infected Colorectal Cancer via Ecological Control

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The bottom‐up strategy based on multiomics data is used for the SynCom design, and it successfully inhibited F. nucleatum growth and achieved stable colonization in vivo. In addition, it promoted tryptophan metabolism and secondary bile acid conversion, reduced lipid accumulation, relieved microbiome disorder, decreased inflammatory reaction, and ...

Natural Allelic Variations in IbCHYR1–IbZnFR Complex Regulate Fusarium Root Rot Resistance in Sweet Potato

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
FfRlpA2, a conserved Fusarium effector, functions as a protease inhibitor by hijacking the E3 ubiquitin ligase IbCHYR1 to degrade the resistance factor IbZnFR, thereby promoting Fusarium pathogenicity. Conversely, the high dosage Pro::IbZnFRHap2 allele was associated with resistance to root rot disease.

The Still Underestimated Problem of Fungal Diseases Worldwide

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
In the past few years, fungal diseases caused estimated over 1.6 million deaths annually and over one billion people suffer from severe fungal diseases (Brown et al., 2012; Anonymous, 2017b). Public health surveillance of fungal diseases is generally not

Candida tropicalis brain abscess in a neonate: An emerging nosocomial menace

open access: yesAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2014
Fungi are a relatively uncommon cause of brain abscess in neonates and early infancy. They are usually associated with predisposing factors like prematurity, low birth weight, use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, and prolonged stay in the intensive care ...

Optogenetic‐Controlled iPSC‐Based Vaccines for Prophylactic and Therapeutic Tumor Suppression in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops an a red/far‐red light‐controlled iPSC‐based vaccines (RIVA) based on the chimeric photosensory protein FnBphP and its interaction partner LDB3 for cancer immunotherapy. The RIVA preserves the multiple intrinsic tumor antigens of iPSCs and enables optogenetic control of the expression of the immune adjuvant type I interferon β under

Current insights into fungal species diversity and perspective on naming the environmental DNA sequences of fungi

open access: yesMycology, 2019
The global bio-diversity of fungi has been extensively investigated and their species number has been estimated. Notably, the development of molecular phylogeny has revealed an unexpected fungal diversity and utilisation of culture-independent approaches
