Millions of microorganisms—including bacteria, viruses, fungi, archaea, and protists—reside on and within the human body, collectively forming the human microbiota. This complex and dynamic community plays a crucial ...

The coevolution of the human diet and gut microbiome has played a pivotal role in shaping metabolic, immune, and epigenetic functions across human history. Dietary transitions from high-fiber ancestral patterns to modern...

Environmental factors such as air pollution, weather events, and ambient toxins are major contributors to human disease, with disproportionate impacts on vulnerable populations. In Puerto Rico, chronic exposure to air po...

Diet-microbiome relationships are often evaluated using isolated nutrients, yet microbes encounter complex food matrices in which nutrient accessibility and baseline microbial community context jointly shape gut fermenta...

BackgroundThe research on human microbiota-associated (HMA) animal models is an important tool for studying the human microbiome and holds great potential for elucidating disease mechanisms and microbe-based therapeutic ...

Abstract The gut microbiome is critical in human health, and various dietary factors influence its composition and function. Among these factors, animal products, such as meat, dairy, and eggs, represent crucial sources ...

IntroductionAtopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by immune dysregulation, impaired epidermal barrier function, and recurrent episodes of itching and inflammation. Emerging evidence...

Abstract Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has emerged as a novel approach for understanding anorexia nervosa (AN), a complex eating disorder characterized by severe underweight, fear of weight gain and distorted bo...

Interactions between communities of the gut microbiome and with the host could affect the onset and progression of metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), and can be useful as new diagnostic and prognostic biom...

Antimicrobial resistance threatens millions of lives annually, yet its acceleration by non-antibiotic pollutants remains poorly understood. Artificial sweeteners, now ubiquitous in soils and waters, are known individuall...

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is a staple food with many promising health benefits. However, obstacles associated with continuous cropping are common in modern intensive sweet potato production, partially due to imba...

An emerging body of evidence has highlighted the complex interplay among obesity, insulin resistance, and the gut microbiota. This observational study aimed to evaluate differences in intestinal microbiome profiles betwe...

Oral mucosal ageing represents a fundamental reprogramming of the tissue microenvironment, a dynamic process that underlies the functional decline and heightened disease susceptibility observed in the elderly. This revie...

Abstract Primary temperate forests serve as a natural framework for studying linkages between vegetation, soil properties and microbial communities under minimal human disturbance. Here, we characterize how soil bacteria...

Abstract Background Prolonged exposure to environmental antigens or allergens elicits an immune response in both healthy horses and those with mild asthma. Corticosteroids often are used to treat lower airway inflammatio...

ABSTRACT Deoxynivalenol (DON), a prevalent trichothecene mycotoxin, poses a global threat to the gut health of both humans and livestock. This study investigates the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of glucur...

Abstract Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a worldwide health concern that compromises the successful treatment of a growing array of infectious diseases, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. AMR is exaggera...

The pandemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS2) affected the geriatric population. Among research models, Golden Syrian hamsters (GSH) are one of the most representative to study SARS2 pathogenesi...

Probiotics, defined as live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host, are considered a valid and novel alternative for the prevention and treatment of female urogeni...

Abstract The global rise in mental health conditions has prompted interest in interventions that act beyond conventional psychopharmacology. Psychobiotics, broadly understood as live microorganisms or microbe‐derived p...

It is widely known that traditional northern hunter–gatherers such as the Inuit included putrid meat, fish, and fat in their diet, although the ubiquity and dietary importance of decomposing animal foods seem often to ...

Introduction: In recent decades, Caribbean coral reefs have lost many vital marine species due to diseases. The well-documented mass mortality event of the long-spined black sea urchin Diadema antillarum in the early 198...
