Harnessing viral footprints in circulating free DNA (cfDNA) for early cancer detection: A focus on liquid‐biopsy‐based screening

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Viral infections play a significant role in cancer development, making detecting viral signatures a promising approach for early cancer diagnosis. Circulating free DNA (cfDNA), released into the bloodstream by tumors and other cells, has emerged as a powerful biomarker for non‐invasive cancer screening.

The gut virome and the relevance of temperate phages in human health

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Alterations in the gut virome impact human health. Bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, dominate the gut virome and are mainly composed by virulent and temperate phages. While virulent phages exclusively replicate within and lyse their bacterial

Awaking the dormant virome in the rhizosphere

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2023
AbstractThe rhizosphere is a vital soil compartment providing key plant‐beneficial functions. However, little is known about the mechanisms driving viral diversity in the rhizosphere. Viruses can establish lytic or lysogenic interactions with their bacterial hosts.

Distinctive metabolic disturbances associated with redox homeostasis, nervous and hormonal functions during gut microbial enrichment upon polystyrene microplastic exposure

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Microplastic‐induced gut microbial enrichment was dominated by bacteria within Eubacteriales, correlated with the virome, and accompanied by colitis. The polyamine synthetic pathway was activated to maintain glutathionylspermidine homeostasis, concurrent with decreases in pathways involved in the production of energy and reactive oxygen species under ...

Putting the Virome on the Map: The Influence of Host Geography and Ethnicity on the Gut Virome [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2020
We know little about factors that ordain the composition of the diverse community of viruses (virome) in the human gut. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Zuo et al. highlight the importance of geography, urbanization, ethnicity, and diet on the shape of the adult gut DNA virome.

Improved single-swab sample preparation for recovering bacterial and phage DNA from human skin and wound microbiomes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundCharacterization of the skin and wound microbiome is of high biomedical interest, but is hampered by the low biomass of typical samples. While sample preparation from other microbiomes (e.g., gut) has been the subject of extensive optimization,

ΦCrAss001 represents the most abundant bacteriophage family in the human gut and infects Bacteroides intestinalis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
peer-reviewedCrAssphages are an extensive and ubiquitous family of tailed bacteriophages, predicted to infect bacteria of the order Bacteroidales. Despite being found in ~50% of individuals and representing up to 90% of human gut viromes, members of this

Alterations in colorectal cancer virome and its persistence after surgery

open access: yesScientific Reports
Viruses are a key component of the colon microbiome, but the relationship between virome and colorectal cancer (CRC) remains poorly understood. We seek to identify alterations in the viral community that is characteristic of CRC and examine if they ...

Extensive gut virome variation and its associations with host and environmental factors in a population-level cohort

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Indigenous bacteriophage communities (virome) in the human gut have a huge impact on the structure and function of gut bacterial communities (bacteriome), but virome variation at a population scale is not fully investigated yet.
