Fungal ecology in the age of 'omics

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The advancement of technology in recent decades has given us an unprecedented ability to observe the natural world. With modern sequencing and bioinformatics technologies, we can obtain more information about the microscopic world, and its interactions with the macroscopic world, than ever before.

Impacts of Lifestyle and Microbiota‐Targeted Interventions for Overweight and Obesity on the Human Gut Microbiome: A Systematic Review

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
Dietary interventions showed the strongest evidence for improving microbiome composition. Probiotics and prebiotics consistently increased beneficial bacteria. Exercise and fecal microbiota transplantation had limited evidence but showed potential for microbiome modulation.

Bacterial Involvement in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Potentially Malignant Oral Disorders

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To clarify the relationship between oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), potentially malignant oral disease (OPMD), and bacterial flora using metagenomic analysis. Methods This cross‐sectional observational study included 50 patients in the control group and 77 patients with OPMDs, 41 with early OSCCs, and 20 with advanced OSCCs ...

The Role of the Oral Microbiome in Circulating Metabolic Biomarkers and the Influence of Air Pollution

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims The oral microbiome is at the frontline for environmental exposure and plays an important role in human metabolism. This study explores the relationship between PM2.5 exposure, the oral microbiome, and metabolic biomarkers including ghrelin, resistin, and insulin.

Defense Systems and Prophage Detection in Streptococcus mutans Strains

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although the species is extensively studied, limited data are available on antiphage defense systems (APDSs) in Streptococcus mutans. The present study aimed to explore the diversity and the occurrence of APDSs and to search for prophages in the genomes of clinical isolates of S. mutans using bioinformatics tools.

Investigation of 222‐nm ultraviolet C irradiation bactericidal effect on the surgical field in a rabbit model

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
In a rabbit surgical field model seeded with polymicrobial flora, a single dose of 222‐nm UV‐C (500 mJ/cm2) markedly reduced bacterial colonies, achieving a bactericidal effect comparable to 254‐nm UV‐C (200 mJ/cm2), while no UV‐C irradiation showed heavy growth. Wound healing did not differ among groups. Microbiota profiling detected SSI‐relevant taxa

Effects of solar‐simulated (UVB plus UVA) radiation on the skin microbiome: An exploratory study

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This exploratory in vivo study investigated the effects of solar‐simulated ultraviolet radiation (UVB plus UVA) on the human skin microbiome. Healthy male volunteers were exposed to suberythemal and erythemal UV doses, and skin microbiota were analyzed at multiple time points using flow cytometry‐based profiling and the open‐access bioinformatic ...
