Discordant transmission of bacteria and viruses from mothers to babies at birth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: The earliest microbial colonizers of the human gut can have life-long consequences for their hosts. Precisely how the neonatal gut bacterial microbiome and virome are initially populated is not well understood.

Diet rapidly and reproducibly alters the human gut microbiome

open access: yesNature, 2013
Long-term dietary intake influences the structure and activity of the trillions of microorganisms residing in the human gut, but it remains unclear how rapidly and reproducibly the human gut microbiome responds to short-term macronutrient change. Here we

Is There a Brain Microbiome? [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Insights, 2021
Numerous studies have identified microbial sequences or epitopes in pathological and non-pathological human brain samples. It has not been resolved if these observations are artifactual, or truly represent population of the brain by microbes. Given the tempting speculation that resident microbes could play a role in the many neuropsychiatric and ...

Alpha-synuclein alters the faecal viromes of rats in a gut-initiated model of Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Stockdale et al. assess longitudinal faecal virome changes in a rat model of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) in which either monomeric or preformed fibrils (PFF) of α-synuclein were administered directly into their enteric nervous system.

The role of bacteria in pine wilt disease: insights from microbiome analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pine Wilt Disease (PWD) has a significant impact on Eurasia pine forests. The microbiome of the nematode (the primary cause of the disease), its insect vector, and the host tree may be relevant for the disease mechanism.

SaQuant: a real-time PCR assay for quantitative assessment of Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2021
Background Molecular assays are important tools for pathogen detection but need to be periodically re-evaluated with the discovery of additional genetic diversity that may cause assays to exclude target taxa or include non-target taxa.
