Early life inter-kingdom interactions shape the immunological

WEBThere is increasing evidence that the airway microbiome plays a key role in the establishment of respiratory health by interacting with the developing immune system early in life. While it has become clear that bacteria are involved in this process, there is a knowledge gap concerning the role of fungi. Moreover, the inter-kingdom interactions …

Cleanliness in context: reconciling hygiene with a modern …

WEBThe concept of hygiene is rooted in the relationship between cleanliness and the maintenance of good health. Since the widespread acceptance of the germ theory of disease, hygiene has become increasingly conflated with sterilization. In reviewing studies across the hygiene literature (most often hand hygiene), we found that nearly all studies …

Direct impact of commonly used dietary emulsifiers on human gut

WEBSeveral dietary emulsifiers impact microbiota density in the MBRA model. Two widely used synthetic dietary emulsifiers, CMC and P80, directly alter the composition and gene expression of human microbiota in vitro, in doses ranging from 0.10 to 1.00%, recapitulating their actions in vivo in animal models [5, 11].We sought to investigate if …

Dissecting the factors shaping fish skin microbiomes in a …

WEBBackground Fish skin microbiomes are rarely studied in inland water systems, in spite of their importance for fish health and ecology. This is mainly because fish species distribution often covaries with other biotic and abiotic factors, complicating the study design. We tackled this issue in the northern part of the Jordan River system, in …
