The microbiome and human cancer
BACKGROUND Historical accounts linking cancer and microbes date as early as four millennia ago. After establishment of the germ theory of infectious diseases, clinical research of microbial influences on cancer began in 1868, when William Busch reported spontaneous tumor regressions in ...

The human microbiome refers to the complex microbial ecosystems that colonize different niches in our bodies and significantly impact homeostasis and overall health. The most studied is certainly the gut microbiome, but knowledge is also increasing on the oral, cutaneous, vaginal communities, etc.

Microbiome and plant cell transformation trigger insect gall induction in cassava [PDF]
Several specialised insects can manipulate normal plant development to induce a highly organised structure known as a gall, which represents one of the most complex interactions between insects and plants. Thus far, the mechanism for insect-induced plant

The human skin microbiome [PDF]
Functioning as the exterior interface of the human body with the environment, skin acts as a physical barrier to prevent the invasion of foreign pathogens while providing a home to the commensal microbiota. The harsh physical landscape of skin, particularly the desiccated, nutrient-poor, acidic environment, also contributes to the adversity that ...

Host-microbiome interactions in atopic and allergic diseases
The environmental exposome impacts the human microbiome, which in turn influences various immune and metabolic functions. Microbiome dysbiosis can be triggered by exposome components and may lead to the development of atopies or exacerbation of existing ...

The Human Microbiome and Cancer [PDF]
Abstract Recent scientific advances have significantly contributed to our understanding of the complex connection between the microbiome and cancer. Our bodies are continuously exposed to microbial cells, both resident and transient, as well as their byproducts, including toxic metabolites. Circulation of toxic metabolites may contribute

Bioarchaeology of the Human Microbiome [PDF]
From prehistory to the present, microbes have played a significant role in the development of human society and culture—from providing essential nutrients and protection through the microbiome, to shaping populations through infectious disease, to producing fermented foods such as cheese, bread, and beer.

Context and the human microbiome [PDF]
Human microbiome reference datasets provide epidemiological context for researchers, enabling them to uncover new insights into their own data through meta-analyses. In addition, large and comprehensive reference sets offer a means to develop or test hypotheses and can pave the way for addressing practical study design considerations such as sample ...

Phylogenetics and the Human Microbiome [PDF]
The human microbiome is the ensemble of genes in the microbes that live inside and on the surface of humans. Because microbial sequencing information is now much easier to come by than phenotypic information, there has been an explosion of sequencing and genetic analysis of microbiome samples.
