Dysbiosis of Gastric Mucosal Fungal Microbiota in the Gastric Cancer Microenvironment

Journal of Immunology Research, 2022
Background. Microbes have been shown to contribute to gastric cancer (GC), gastric bacteria and viruses are associated with gastric carcinogenesis. However, the relationship between gastric fungi and GC is still unclear. Our aim was to evaluate the gastric fungal microbiota in the GC microenvironment. Methods.

Gut Mycobiome and Asthma

Journal of Fungi
This review explores the ‘gut–lung axis’ in asthma with a focus on commensal fungal organisms. We explore how changes to the intestinal commensal fungal community composition alter lung immune function.

Fungal Dysbiosis in Mucosa-associated Microbiota of Crohn's Disease Patients. [PDF]

J Crohns Colitis, 2016
Gut microbiota is involved in many physiological functions and its imbalance is associated with several diseases, particularly with inflammatory bowel diseases. Mucosa-associated microbiota could have a key role in induction of host immunity and in inflammatory process. Although the role of fungi has been suggested in inflammatory disease pathogenesis,

Fungal‐Bacterial Dysbiosis in IBD: Microbial Biomarkers of Disease Activity

MicrobiologyOpen
Inflammatory bowel disease is associated with complex changes in the intestinal microbiota. While bacterial dysbiosis has been widely studied, the role of fungal communities and their interaction with bacteria remains less explored.

Fungal gut microbiome in myasthenia gravis: a sub-analysis of the MYBIOM study [PDF]

, 2023
An altered gut microbiota is a possible contributing pathogenic factor in myasthenia gravis (MG), an autoimmune neuromuscular disease. However, the significance of the fungal microbiome is an understudied and neglected part of the intestinal microbiome ...

Characterization of the Intestinal Fungal Microbiome in HIV and HCV Mono-Infected or Co-Infected Patients

Viruses, 2022
Intestinal mycobiome dysbiosis plays an important role in the advancement of HIV- and HCV-infected patients. Co-infection with HCV is an important risk factor for exacerbating immune activation in HIV-infected patients, and gut fungal microbial dysbiosis
