Microbiome and Malignancy [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2011
Current knowledge is insufficient to explain why only a proportion of individuals exposed to environmental carcinogens or carrying a genetic predisposition to cancer develop disease. Clearly, other factors must be important, and one such element that has recently received attention is the human microbiome, the residential microbes including Bacteria ...

The microbiome of the nasopharynx [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 2021
The nasopharyngeal microbiome is a dynamic microbial interface of the aerodigestive tract, and a diagnostic window in the fight against respiratory infections and antimicrobial resistance. As its constituent bacteria, viruses and mycobacteria become better understood and sampling accuracy improves, diagnostics of the nasopharynx could guide more ...

The microbiome in bronchiectasis [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2019
Bronchiectasis is increasing in prevalence worldwide, yet current treatments available are limited to those alleviating symptoms and reducing exacerbations. The pathogenesis of the disease and the inflammatory, infective and molecular drivers of disease progression are not fully understood, making the development of novel treatments challenging ...

Effect of commonly used cosmetic preservatives on skin resident microflora dynamics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Human skin is populated by various microorganisms, the so-called microbiota, such as bacteria, viruses, yeasts, fungi, and archaea. The skin microbiota is in constant contact with the surrounding environment which can alter its eubiotic state.

Metagenomic analysis of mother-infant gut microbiome reveals global distinct and shared microbial signatures

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2021
Emerging evidence indicates maternal microbiota as one major reservoir for pioneering microbes in infants. However, the global distinct and identical features of mother–infant gut microbiota at various taxonomic resolutions and metabolic functions across

Akkermansia muciniphila reduces susceptibility to Listeria monocytogenes infection in mice fed a high-fat diet

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2023
A high-fat (HF) diet reduces resistance to the foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. We demonstrate that short-term gavage with A. muciniphila increases resistance to oral and systemic L. monocytogenes infection in mice fed a HF diet. A. muciniphila
