Interindividual variability and intraindividual stability of oral fungal microbiota over time [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2014
Oral microbiota is one of the most complex and diverse microbial communities in the human body. In the present study, we aimed to characterize oral fungi biodiversity and stability over time in a group of healthy participants with good oral health. Oral health and oral fungal microbiota were evaluated in 40 healthy individuals.

The Degree of Mucosa-Associated Microecological Imbalance in Ulcerative Colitis Patients with Different Mayo Score and Its Relationship with Mucosal Mechanical Barrier Damage

The Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology
Background/Aims: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease known for mucosal inflammation and dysbiosis of gut microbiota. The association between mucosa-related microecological imbalance and UC severity is a crucial aspect in ...

Targeting neutrophil extracellular traps in metabolic and immune niche: Nanomaterials for diabetes tissue regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The effects of NETs on regeneration of various diabetic tissues, and strategies targeting NETs for diabetes tissue regeneration. In the diabetic environment, NETs undergo complex metabolic and immune reprogramming, leading to dynamic changes in antibacterial and proinflammatory functions, and affecting regeneration of multiple systemic tissues.

The fungal gut microbiota in pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis

Frontiers in Microbiology
Evidence suggests that the gut microbiome may play a role in multiple sclerosis (MS). However, the majority of the studies have focused on gut bacterial communities; none have examined the fungal microbiota (mycobiota) in persons with pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis (POMS).

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.
