Multiple sclerosis patients have an altered gut mycobiome and increased fungal to bacterial richness

PLoS ONE, 2022
Trillions of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses exist in the healthy human gut microbiome. Although gut bacterial dysbiosis has been extensively studied in multiple sclerosis (MS), the significance of the fungal microbiome (mycobiome) is an ...

The gut mycobiome of healthy mice is shaped by the environment and correlates with metabolic outcomes in response to diet

Communications Biology, 2021
Tahliyah S. Mims et al. investigate the influence of the gut mycobiome abundance and composition on host metabolism. Using mice from four different commercial suppliers they find that the gut mycobiome is shaped by diet, and that abundance and ...

The Human Mycobiome: Colonization, Composition and the Role in Health and Disease

Journal of Fungi, 2022
The mycobiome is the fungal component of the human microbial ecosystem that represents only a small part of this environment but plays an essential role in maintaining homeostasis. Colonization by fungi begins immediately after birth.

Alterations in the gut mycobiome with coronary artery disease severity. [PDF]

EBioMedicine
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a prevalent cardiovascular condition, and numerous studies have linked gut bacterial imbalance to CAD. However, the relationship of gut fungi, another essential component of the intestinal microbiota, with CAD remains poorly understood.In this cross-sectional study, we analyzed fecal samples from 132 participants, split

Long-term prednisone treatment causes fungal microbiota dysbiosis and alters the ecological interaction between gut mycobiome and bacteriome in rats

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are widely used in the treatment of immune-mediated diseases due to their anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. Prednisone is one of the most commonly used GCs.

Gut mycobiome alterations in obesity in geographically different regions. [PDF]

Gut Microbes
The gut fungi play important roles in human health and are involved in energy metabolism. This study aimed to examine gut mycobiome composition in obese subjects in two geographically different regions in China and to identify specific gut fungi associated with obesity.

Associations between infant fungal and bacterial dysbiosis and childhood atopic wheeze in a nonindustrialized setting. [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Asthma is the most prevalent chronic disease of childhood. Recently, we identified a critical window early in the life of both mice and Canadian infants during which gut microbial changes (dysbiosis) affect asthma development.

Human Gut Mycobiome and Fungal Community Interaction: The Unknown Musketeer in the Chemotherapy Response Status in Bladder Cancer

European Urology Open Science, 2022
Background: Until recently, the properties of microbiome and mycobiome in humans and its relevance to disease have largely been unexplored. While the interest of microbiome and malignancy over the past few years have burgeoned with advent of new ...

Through the Scope Darkly: The Gut Mycobiome Comes into Focus [PDF]

Cell Host & Microbe, 2017
The gut microbiome is comprised of microbes from multiple kingdoms, including bacteria, but also fungi, viruses, and perhaps other agents. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Jiang et al. (2017) reveal that fungal monocolonization after antibiotic-mediated depletion of intestinal bacteria prevents colitis and influenza, thus highlighting beneficial ...
