Argulus coregoni (Crustacea: Branchiura: Argulidae) Parasitic on a Freshwater Minnow Opsariichthys platypus (Cypriniformes: Xenocyprididae) in a Low-Elevation Stream in Kyushu, Western Japan

Species Diversity
An adult female of Argulus coregoni Thorell, 1864 was collected from the operculum of a freshwater minnow Opsariichthys platypus (Temminck and Schlegel, 1846) (Cypriniformes: Xenocyprididae) at 15 m elevation in a stream in Oita Prefecture, Kyushu ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Argulus coregoni (Crustacea: Branchiura: Argulidae) Parasitic on a Dark Chub Nipponocypris temminckii (Cypriniformes: Xenocyprididae) in a Stream, Central Japan, with a List of Its Known Hosts in East Asia

Species Diversity
An adult male specimen of Argulus coregoni Thorell, 1864 was collected from the body surface of a dark chub Nipponocypris temminckii (Temminck and Schlegel, 1846) at 15 m elevation in a small stream in central Japan.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Utilization of DC-SIGN for Entry of Feline Coronaviruses into Host Cells [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2008
ABSTRACT The entry and dissemination of viruses in several families can be mediated by C-type lectins such as DC-SIGN. We showed that entry of the serotype II feline coronavirus strains feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) WSU 79-1146 and DF2 into nonpermissive mouse 3T3 cells can be rescued by the expression of human DC-SIGN (hDC-SIGN)

Occurrence and Morphology of Argulus coregoni (Crustacea: Branchiura: Argulidae) on Three Species of Fishes in Three Orders (Acipenseriformes, Cypriniformes, and Salmoniformes) Reared at a Fish Hatchery in Central Japan

Species Diversity
Adults of both sexes of Argulus coregoni Thorell, 1864 were collected from the body surface of bester [a hybrid of beluga Huso huso (Linnaeus, 1758) × sterlet sturgeon H. ruthenus (Linnaeus, 1758)], common carp Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus, 1758, and rainbow

Cross-feeding of bifidobacteria promotes intestinal homeostasis: a lifelong perspective on the host health

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes
Throughout the life span of a host, bifidobacteria have shown superior colonization and glycan abilities. Complex glycans, such as human milk oligosaccharides and plant glycans, that reach the colon are directly internalized by the transport system of ...

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
