Gut mycobiome in health and disease
The complexity of the human microbiota remains poorly understood, despite the evolutionary insights gained in recent years. In particular, the functional role of fungi as one of the key players in the human microbiota remains to be defined. This review provides a summary of the emerging data on the mycobiota in health and disease published in the last ...

Mycobiome of the Bat White Nose Syndrome (WNS) Affected Caves and Mines reveals High Diversity of Fungi and Local Adaptation by the Fungal Pathogen Pseudogymnoascus (Geomyces) destructans [PDF]
The investigations of the bat White Nose Syndrome (WNS) have yet to provide answers as to how the causative fungus Pseudogymnoascus (Geomyces) destructans (Pd) first appeared in the Northeast and how a single clone has spread rapidly in the US and Canada.

Multi-omics insights reveal the remodeling of gut mycobiome with P. gingivalis
As a keystone periodontal pathogen, Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) was suggested to be involved in the progression of systemic diseases by altering the intestinal microecology. However, studies concerning gut microbiome have focused entirely on

Captivity Is Associated With Gut Mycobiome Composition in Tibetan Macaques (Macaca thibetana)
Although recent studies have revealed that gut fungi may play an important functional role in animal biology and health, little is known concerning the effects of anthropogenic pressures on the gut mycobiome.

Gut mycobiome dysbiosis after sepsis and trauma. [PDF]
Abstract Background Sepsis and trauma are known to disrupt gut bacterial microbiome communities, but the impacts and perturbations in the fungal (mycobiome) community after severe infection or injury, particularly in patients experiencing chronic critical illness (CCI), remain unstudied ...

Metagenomics reveals unique gut mycobiome biomarkers in psoriasis. [PDF]
AbstractPurposeIn present, the diagnosis of psoriasis is mainly based on the patient's typical clinical manifestations, dermoscopy and skin biopsy, and unlike other immune diseases, psoriasis lacks specific indicators in the blood. Therefore, we are required to search novel biomarkers for the diagnosis of psoriasis.MethodsIn this study, we analyzed the
