Skin Commensal Microbiota Does Not Influence the Clinical Course of Dermatophyte Infection in Persian Cats

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.
Dermatophytes can be isolated from both symptomatic and asymptomatic cats, yet the role of skin commensals in modulating disease expression remains unclear. This study investigates whether microbial skin communities influence the clinical presentation (symptomatic or asymptomatic) of dermatophyte infection in Persian cats.

Whole Genome Characterization of Klebsiella Strains in European Hedgehogs and Human Nosocomial Settings Identified Shared Sequence Types, Antimicrobial Resistance Genes and Plasmids

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae is a pathogen associated with healthcare‐acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to beta‐lactams and carbapenems. Although wild animals are not typically exposed to antibiotics, they can harbour resistant strains. The European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is increasingly found in urban areas,

Gastrointestinal microbiota and barrier integrity in individuals who develop exertional heat illness and pair‐matched controls: A prospective observational cohort study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been hypothesised that the composition of the gastrointestinal (GI) microbiota contributes to exertional heat illness (EHI) aetiology, but relevant empirical data in humans are lacking. Utilising a unique prospective study design, stool samples and resting blood samples were obtained from 550 individuals prior to (within 3 days ...

Precise assessment of facial skin based on multimodal data fusion of the microbiome

Quantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The skin microecology plays a vital role in maintaining cutaneous health and is intricately linked to host skin phenotypes. However, there remains a lack of precise and quantitative biomarkers for evaluating skin health conditions, making it challenging to identify individuals at potential risk of microecological imbalance.

Clinical Management of Helicobacter Infection in Captive Baboons (Papio anubis and Papio hamadryas), and Isolation and Molecular Characterization of Three Novel Helicobacter Species

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Helicobacter spp. are gastric or enterohepatic bacteria that can be commensal, opportunistic, or pathogenic. Few studies have evaluated Helicobacter spp. in baboons. Methods Twenty‐seven captive baboons were surveyed for Helicobacter spp. by fecal PCR, and a subset evaluated by culture.

Dietary N‐Acetylserotonin offers protection against Shewanella putrefaciens infection in Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Shewanella putrefaciens is an important bacterial pathogen that poses a serious threat to Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) aquaculture. However, the protective effects of N‐Acetylserotonin (NAS) against S. putrefaciens infection in E. sinensis remain unknown.

Neuroprotective Effects of Biosynthetic d‐Calcium Pantothenate and Cyanocobalamin Against MPTP‐Induced Parkinsonism via Microbiota Modulation, Metabolic Homeostasis Restoration, and Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Inhibition

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
Biosynthetic D‐calcium pantothenate and cyanocobalamin alleviate MPTP‐induced Parkinsonism in mice by modulating gut microbiota, restoring metabolic homeostasis, and inhibiting Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress. ABSTRACT Vitamin B5 (VB5) and Vitamin B12 (VB12) are essential micronutrients widely distributed in functional foods, yet their neuroprotective ...

Tri‐Parametric Assessment of α‐Galactosidase A Activity, lysoGb3 and X‐Inactivation Aids Genotype‐Phenotype Categorization of Fabry Disease Female Patients

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Fabry disease (FD, OMIM 301500) is an X‐linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficient activity of lysosomal alpha‐galactosidase A (AGAL, E.C. 3.2.1.22) due to pathogenic variants in the GLA gene (HGNC:4296, Xq22.1). Plasmatic deacylated globotriaosylceramide (lysoGb3) is elevated in FD patients as a reflection of lysosomal accumulation

Comparative analysis of fungal microbiomes in Korean and Chinese chili pepper powders

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 9, Page 5680-5687, July 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Chili pepper powder plays a crucial role in kimchi fermentation; however, its use may result in fungal contamination. Therefore, analyzing its mycobiome is vital to maintain quality control standards. In this study, we used internal transcribed spacer (ITS)2 amplicon sequencing to compare fungal communities in commercially available
