Dual Disruption of the Immune Cytokine Spätzle Facilitates Fungal Infection of Diverse Insect Hosts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The Toll pathway is essential for insect defense against fungal pathogens. This works reports that fungal parasites employ two divergent virulent effectors to target the Toll receptor ligand Spätzle: a metalloprotease degrading it and a hairpin‐like effector hijacking it to block signal transduction. This dual strategy enables the fungus to kill a wide

Dispersal in microbes: fungi in indoor air are dominated by outdoor air and show dispersal limitation at short distances. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The indoor microbiome is a complex system that is thought to depend on dispersal from the outdoor biome and the occupants' microbiome combined with selective pressures imposed by the occupants' behaviors and the building itself.

Arid1a Deficiency Drives Aristolochic Acid‐Induced Liver Tumorigenesis through Ctnnb1 Mutation and Defective Nucleotide Excision Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ARID1A is frequently mutated in both non‐malignant tissues and cancers, but its role in tumor development after exposure to genotoxic carcinogen remains unclear. It is found that aristolochic acid I accelerated liver tumorigenesis in ARID1A‐deficient context by impairing nucleotide excision repair and enhancing carcinogen bioactivation, revealing key ...

In vitro culture of Leucoagaricus gongylophorus (Agaricaceae), symbiont fungus of the leaf-cutting ant Atta mexicana (Hymenoptera, Formicidae), using solid and plant-supplemented culture media

open access: yesActa Botanica Mexicana
Background and Aims: The mutualism between leaf-cutting ants and the fungus Leucoagaricus gongylophorus is a remarkable instance of insect-fungus symbiosis. In this study, we aimed to make a molecular identification of the L.

Comparing Prophylactic Administration of Sulbactam/Ampicillin Versus Cefmetazole for Prevention of Perineal Wound Infection Following Abdominoperineal Resection for Rectal Cancer: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This prospective randomized trial demonstrated that a 4‐day regimen of sulbactam/ampicillin significantly reduced the incidence of perineal wound infection (PWI) following abdominoperineal resection compared to a 1‐day cefmetazole regimen. This simple approach to antibiotic selection may be beneficial for preventing PWI.
