Differences in maternal subgingival microbiome between preterm and term births: The MOHEPI study

Journal of Periodontal Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 939-950, October 2024.
Maternal subgingival microbiome of preterm births has distinctive features from term births. The schematic is created with Biorender.com. Abstract Aim Periodontitis is a potential risk factor for preterm birth (PTB) in women; however, the causal relationship or the exact mechanism remain unknown. This study aimed to compare the oral microbiome features

Effects of dietary nutrients of the gut microbiota in the long‐tailed dwarf hamster (Cricetulus longicaudatus)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
The dietary structure can significantly impact the diversity and community composition of gut microbiota in Cricetulus longicaudatus, which primarily inhabits dryland farming areas. The abundance of specific microbiota is closely correlated with the nutrient content of the diet.

Combination of microbiome analysis and serodiagnostics to assess the risk of pathogen transmission by ticks to humans and animals in central Germany

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Arthropod-borne diseases remain a major health-threat for humans and animals worldwide. To estimate the distribution of pathogenic agents and especially Bartonella spp., we conducted tick microbiome analysis and determination of the infection ...

Causal influence of gut microbiota on small cell lung cancer: a Mendelian randomization study

The Clinical Respiratory Journal, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2024.
Mendelian randomization to investigate the causal impact of the gut microbiota on small cell lung cancer (SCLC). It begins with the careful selection of genetic instruments linked to the microbiome, utilizes robust statistical methods to address confounding elements, and arrives at meaningful conclusions.

Seasonal and Spatial Variations in Bacterial Communities From Tetrodotoxin-Bearing and Non-tetrodotoxin-Bearing Clams

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is one of the most potent naturally occurring compounds and is responsible for many human intoxications worldwide. Paphies australis are endemic clams to New Zealand which contain varying concentrations of TTX. Research suggests that P.

Bacterial symbionts of the precious coral Corallium rubrum are differentially distributed across colony‐specific compartments and differ among colormorphs

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2024.
The distribution and functions of the symbiotic microbes of the precious coral Corallium rubrum are unknown. We optimised coral dissection protocols by using RNAlater, and employed 16S rRNA metabarcoding to characterise the microbiota in different compartments (polyps, coenenchyme, skeleton) and in three colormorphs (red, pink, white).

Secondary syphilis in the third trimester of pregnancy

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 3, March 2024.
Histopathological findings in placenta of patients with syphilis. Key Clinical Message Syphilis infections discovered late in pregnancy, as in this case, may not be treated long enough for delivery. The Japanese guidelines should be revised because they do not describe the mode of delivery for pregnant women infected with syphilis.

Moderate Dietary Protein Restriction Optimized Gut Microbiota and Mucosal Barrier in Growing Pig Model

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Appropriate protein concentration is essential for animal at certain stage. This study evaluated the effects of different percentages of dietary protein restriction on intestinal health of growing pigs. Eighteen barrows were randomly assigned to a normal
