Longitudinal alterations of the gut mycobiota and microbiota on COVID-19 severity [PDF]
BMC Infectious Diseases, 2022 Background The impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection on the gut fungal (mycobiota) and bacterial (microbiota) communities has been elucidated individually. This study analyzed both gut mycobiota and microbiota and their correlation in the COVID-19 patients with

Gut Mycobiota in Immunity and Inflammatory Disease. [PDF]
Immunity, 2019 The mammalian intestine is colonized by a wealth of microorganisms-including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi-that are all integrated into a functional trans-kingdom community. Characterization of the composition of the fungal community-the mycobiota-has advanced further than the much-needed mechanistic studies.

Human gut mycobiota tune immunity via CARD9-dependent induction of anti-fungal IgG antibodies. [PDF]
Cell, 2021 Antibodies mediate natural and vaccine-induced immunity against viral and bacterial pathogens, whereas fungi represent a widespread kingdom of pathogenic species for which neither vaccine nor neutralizing antibody therapies are clinically available.

Effect of intrapartum azithromycin on early childhood gut mycobiota development: post hoc analysis of a double-blind randomized trial [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsIntrapartum azithromycin prophylaxis reduced maternal infections but showed no effect on neonatal sepsis and mortality. Although antibiotic exposure may indirectly alter the mycobiota (community of fungi that live in a given environment), there is no ...

Intestinal mycobiota in health and diseases: from a disrupted equilibrium to clinical opportunities
Microbiome, 2021 Bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi establish a complex ecosystem in the gut. Like other microbiota, gut mycobiota plays an indispensable role in modulating intestinal physiology.
