Host-microbe interactions and the behavior of Caenorhabditis elegans
Journal of neurogenetics, 2020 Microbes are ubiquitous in the natural environment of Caenorhabditis elegans. Bacteria serve as a food source for C. elegans but may also cause infection in the nematode host. The sensory nervous system of C.

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

GuaB Activity Is Required in Rhizobium tropici During the Early Stages of Nodulation of Determinate Nodules but Is Dispensable for the Sinorhizobium meliloti–Alfalfa Symbiotic Interaction [PDF]
, 2005 The guaB mutant strain Rhizobium tropici CIAT8999-10T is defective in symbiosis with common bean, forming nodules that lack rhizobial content. In order to investigate the timing of the guaB requirement during the nodule formation on the host common ...

The Use of Defined Microbial Communities To Model Host-Microbe Interactions in the Human Gut
Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2019 The human intestinal ecosystem is characterized by a complex interplay between different microorganisms and the host. The high variation within the human population further complicates the quest toward an adequate understanding of this complex system ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A dual‐layer living hydrogel, ProΦGel, integrates bacteriophages and probiotics for synergistic wound infection therapy. The outer gelatin‐based matrix releases phages on demand in response to P. aeruginosa infections, while inner alginate beads sustain probiotic delivery.

Beyond tug-of-war: Iron metabolism in cooperative host–microbe interactions
PLoS Pathogens, 2020 Infections induce dramatic rearrangements in host macroand micronutrient processes [1] and likely reflect host adaptive mechanisms to defend against infection. Traditional models to explain these adaptations suggest antagonistic host–pathogen coevolution.

An Engineered Living Material With Pro‐Angiogenic Activity Inducible by Near‐Infrared Light
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.NIR‐responsive engineered living materials (ELMs) for controlled angiogenesis: Near‐infrared (800 nm) light activates engineered probiotic bacteria within alginate‐based living materials to secrete a blood vessel‐regenerating protein. The released protein promotes pro‐angiogenic effects in endothelial networks and chick chorioallantoic membranes.
