A Rare Case of Fungaemia Due to Kodamaea ohmeri in a Neonate
Background: K. ohmeri is seen predominantly in cutaneous, endocarditis, fungemia and catheter-related bloodstream infections. Neonates are predisposed to systemic fungal infections due to prematurity, immunocompromised state, invasive procedures ...

The graphical abstract summarizes the laboratory characterization of Naganishia uzbekistanensis strain CY11558. The isolate shows distinct colony morphology, globular yeast cells with a fibrillar surface network under scanning electron microscopy, and a weakly positive cryptococcal antigen reaction.

ABSTRACT Wine with unique flavor and aroma from nonspontaneous wine fermentation with nonconventional yeasts has gained attention in the wine industry. To develop a stable and controllable pathway for winemaking, the current study screened aroma‐producing yeast strains from grape vineyards in Taiwan and evaluated their suitability through co ...

This graphical abstract illustrates how altered gut microbiota lead to autoimmunity. It shows that gut dysbiosis causes a “leaky gut” and activates autoreactive intestinal immune cells, which then migrate to other organs, ultimately triggering systemic autoimmune responses.

ABSTRACT Background Malassezia spp. are part of the microbiota of many animals, including humans. However, under certain conditions, they can become pathogenic. Diseases associated with Malassezia include pityriasis versicolor (PV), seborrheic dermatitis (SD), Malassezia folliculitis, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and fungemia.

Bloodstream infections (BSI) are one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in both civilian and military populations. This paper summarizes recent progress in novel treatment strategies to manage BSI arising from both bacterial and fungal pathogens using molecules, particles, and materials to elicit host‐directed immunity.

Current Advancements of Probiotic Foods and Their Role in Sustainable Food Security
ABSTRACT Probiotic foods have evolved from traditional fermented products to scientifically validated functional foods, defined by the FAO and WHO as live microorganism that confer a health benefit on the host when administered in adequate amounts, with effects being strain, does and end point specific.
