Microbiota Imbalance Contributes to COPD Deterioration by Enhancing IL-17a Production via miR-122 and miR-30a

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2020
The changes of microbiota in lungs could change interleukin-17a (IL-17a) expression by altering microRNAs (miRNAs) profile, thus contributing to the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Dynamics of microbial community and fermentation quality during ensiling of sterile and nonsterile alfalfa with or without Lactobacillus plantarum inoculant.

Bioresource Technology, 2019
To reveal the mechanism of the survival and adaption of inoculated Lactobacillus plantarum during ensiling. Alfalfa was ensiled directly (A1), after γ-ray irradiation (A0), and after inoculation of the sterile (A0L) or fresh alfalfa (A1L) with ...

Effect of Chlorhexidine Gluconate (0.2%), Combination (0.2% Chlorhexidine and 0.05% Sodium Fluoride), and Green Tea Extract (0.5%) Mouth Rinses on Colony Count Changes of Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus in Saliva – A Randomized Controlled Trial

Journal of Indian Association of Public Health Dentistry
Introduction Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus acidophilus are the well-known etiological factors for dental caries. Chlorhexidine (CHX) gluconate is the “gold-standard” antimicrobial agent but having adverse effects such as brown staining of the ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Dual‐Layer Living Hydrogel Enables On‐Demand Delivery of Phages and Probiotics for Synergistic Wound Infection Therapy

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.
