Infancy is a key period for bone growth, determining bone strength later in life. Studies have provided early insights into the role that human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) may play in growth, potentially through their effects on the microbiome. However, f ...

Nori is a component of the traditional Japanese diet. The Japanese have a low prevalence of obesity and cardiovascular disease worldwide, and components of nori may have disease-preventive effects. Here, we focused on porphyran, which is abundant in nori t ...

Wastewater resulting from human activities must be treated to minimize the impact on the receiving ecosystems. One of such potential impacts in lakes and other water bodies is eutrophication, an excessive increase in their nitrogen and phosphorus content. ...

Host–gut microbiota interactions are more complex than good or bad. Both gut symbiotic bacteria and pathobionts can provide essential functions to their host in one scenario and yet be detrimental to host health in another. So, these gut-dwelling bacteria ...

Recent advancements in next-generation sequencing have revolutionized our understanding of the human microbiome. Despite this progress, challenges persist in comprehending the microbiome's influence on disease, hindered by technical complexities in species ...

BackgroundPermafrost microbiomes are of paramount importance for the biogeochemistry of high latitude soils and while endemic biosynthetic domain sequences involved in secondary metabolism have been found in polar surface soils, the biosynthetic potential ...

Bacteria are ubiquitous single cellular organisms. Compared to eukaryotic cells, bacteria have two unique characteristics: the membrane-less nucleoid and the cell wall built of peptidoglycan (PG). In most bacteria, a single circular chromosome is compacted ...

Diverse bacteria can colonize the animal gut using dietary nutrients or by engaging in microbial crossfeeding interactions. Less is known about the role of host-derived nutrients in enabling gut bacterial colonization. Here we examined metabolic interactio ...

Most cryospheric ecosystems are energy limited. How their energetics will respond to climate change remains largely unknown. This is particularly true for glacier-fed streams, which interface with the cryosphere and initiate some of Earth's largest river s ...

Background Braak's hypothesis states that sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD) follows a specific progression of pathology from the peripheral to the central nervous system, and this progression can be monitored by detecting the accumulation of alpha-Synuclei ...

Caenorhabditiselegans (C. elegans) has gained importance as a model for studying host-microbiota interactions and bacterial infections related to human pathogens. Assessing the fate of ingested bacteria in the worm's intestine is therefore of great interes ...

Mitochondria are responsible for respiration and energy harvesting across the eukaryotic kingdom. They also take part in other cellular processes like intermediary metabolism. As a result, mitochondrial function directly impacts organismal features such as ...

Malaria puts at risk of infection half of the world population and still kills around half a million people every year. The rapid and worrisome rise of drug-resistant malaria parasites hinders the treatment of malaria and calls for a global collaboration t ...

Microorganisms aggregated into matrix-enclosed biofilms dominate microbial life in most natural, engineered, and medical systems. Despite this, the ecological adaptations and metabolic trade-offs of the formation of complex biofilms are currently poorly un ...

Helminth infections affect around one fourth of the world population living in the poorest regions of our planet. Helminths mainly cause debilitating chronic effects on health, development and nutritional status of infected people. The development of a vac ...

Background: Disturbance to human microbiota may underlie several pathologies. Yet, we lack a comprehensive understanding of how lifestyle affects the dynamics of human-associated microbial communities. Results: Here, we link over 10,000 longitudinal measur ...
