Mesenchymal Stem Cells Reduce Inflammation in a Mouse Model of Lyme Arthritis

Stem Cells International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Lyme disease (LD), a zoonotic infectious disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi (B. burgdorferi), can affect various organs, including the skin, heart, nervous system, and joints. Lyme arthritis (LA) is the most common and severe late‐stage presentation of LD, often presenting with intermittent joint swelling and pain.

Comparative microbiome analysis reveals the variation in microbial communities between ‘Kyoho’ grape and its bud mutant variety

PLoS ONE, 2023
Microbes are an important part of the vineyard ecosystem, which significantly influence the quality of grapes. Previously, we identified a bud mutant variety (named ‘Fengzao’) from ‘Kyoho’ grapes.

Lactobacillus plantarum PFM 105 Promotes Intestinal Development Through Modulation of Gut Microbiota in Weaning Piglets

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Lactobacillus plantarum is a widespread bacterial species and is commonly used as a probiotic. L. plantarum PFM105 was isolated from the rectum of a healthy sow. Here we found that L.

Comprehensive analysis of predominant pathogenic bacteria and viruses in seafood products

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 4, July 2024.
Abstract Given the growing global demand for seafood, it is imperative to conduct a comprehensive study on the prevalence and persistence patterns of pathogenic bacteria and viruses associated with specific seafood varieties. This assessment thoroughly examines the safety of seafood products, considering the diverse processing methods employed in the ...

Phylogenetic diversity and temporal variation in the Spirochaeta populations from two Mediterranean microbial mats [PDF]

, 2010
Spirochetes represent one of the bacterial groups often observed in hydrogen- sulfide-rich layers from coastal microbial mats. However, relatively few spirochetes from these microbial mats have been described and characterized.

YeeD is an essential partner for YeeE-mediated thiosulfate uptake in bacteria and regulates thiosulfate ion decomposition.

PLoS Biology
Uptake of thiosulfate ions as an inorganic sulfur source from the environment is important for bacterial sulfur assimilation. Recently, a selective thiosulfate uptake pathway involving a membrane protein YeeE (TsuA) in Escherichia coli was characterized.

Organic matter content and source is associated with the depth‐dependent distribution of prokaryotes in lake sediments

Freshwater Biology, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 496-508, April 2024.
Abstract Aquatic sediments harbour a diverse array of microorganisms that drive organic matter recycling, carbon sequestration and greenhouse gases (e.g., CO2, CH4, N2O) emissions. Although largely studied in water columns, vertical profiles of the diversity and composition of prokaryotic communities (i.e., Bacteria and Archaea) in aquatic sediments ...

Metabarcoding reveals unique microbial mat communities and evidence of biogeographic influence in low‐oxygen, high‐sulfur sinkholes and springs

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
Groundwater‐fed underwater sinkholes and springs create habitats with high‐sulfur, low‐oxygen conditions. Multi‐marker metabarcoding was used to describe microbial mat communities in these extreme aquatic habitats. Unique bacterial and diatom communities were found in five springs in Michigan and Florida, with water parameters and biogeography ...
