The nasopharyngeal microbiome

open access: yesEmerging Topics in Life Sciences, 2017
Human microbiomes have received increasing attention over the last 10 years, leading to a pervasiveness of hypotheses relating dysbiosis to health and disease. The respiratory tract has received much less attention in this respect than that of, for example, the human gut. Nevertheless, progress has been made in elucidating the immunological, ecological

Perinatal factors affect the gut microbiota up to four years after birth

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Early life microbiome is affected by factors such as mode of delivery, gestational age at birth and feeding regime. Here, the authors show that gestational age at birth still imprints on the microbiome at four years of age, suggesting a link between ...

The microbiome in spondyloarthritis

open access: yesBest Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2019
A causal link between the wealth of microbes that populate our body surfaces, designated as microbiota, and inflammatory disorders, including ankylosing spondylitis and the related spondyloarthritis (SpA) has been suspected for decades. This specially concerns the gut microbiota that became only recently accessible to thorough description thanks to ...

Macrophage cytokine responses to commensal Gram-positive Lactobacillus salivarius strains are TLR2-independent and Myd88-dependent

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The mechanisms through which cells of the host innate immune system distinguish commensal bacteria from pathogens are currently unclear. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a class of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) expressed by host cells which ...
