ABSTRACT Background Emerging research suggests the presence of a blood microbiome in clinically healthy individuals. Characterizing bacterial composition and abundance in blood from a group of healthy horses is of clinic...

Abstract Background Existing research suggested that the intratumoral microbiome participates in the progression and metastasis of lung cancer. However, its role in distinguishing benign from early-stage malignant pulmon...

"We report extensive numerical simulations of the flow of anisotropic self-propelled particles through a constriction. In particular, we explore the role of the particles’ desired orientation with respect to the moving...

Abstract Soil microbes are essential for ecosystem functioning, affecting soil health and fertility. The microbial diversity present in soil is influenced by diverse land-use practices and environmental conditions; howev...

The host cell recognition and removal of invading pathogens are crucial for the control of microbial infections. However, several microorganisms have developed mechanisms that allow them to survive and replicate intracel...

This study compared the growth performance, rumen fermentation patterns, and microbial community structure between three-way crossbred (Poll Dorset × Southdown × Hu, TNH) and purebred Hu (HH) sheep. A total of 75 male ...

Methane emissions and chemical pollutants often co-occur in natural and engineered environments, contributing to ecosystem degradation. Microorganisms play key roles in regulating these processes through methane oxidatio...

Abstract Background Blanket bogs are rare ombrotrophic peatlands that function as important long-term carbon stores. Their persistence depends on strong nutrient limitation, which maintains Sphagnum dominance and suppres...

The article investigates the effects of exercise modalities on metabolic disturbances and the gut microbiome in women with metabolic syndrome The relevance of the study is determined by the rapidly increasing prevalence ...

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...

Abstract Background The role of the gastric microbiome in development or persistence of equine glandular gastric disease (EGGD) remains to be investigated. Hypothesis/Objectives The objective was to characterize the glan...

ObjectiveThe southern margin of the Junggar Basin (also referred to as the southern Junggar) possesses abundant medium- to low-rank coalbed methane (CBM) resources, with significant progress achieved in CBM exploration a...

BackgroundThe intestinal barrier is a critical interface between the host and the external environment, and growing evidence indicates that bidirectional crosstalk between the gut microbiota and the intestinal barrier is...

Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) such as bacteriophages and plasmids profoundly shape microbial community structure and drive horizontal gene transfer across ecosystems. Wastewater treatment systems, with their high cell d...

Plastic pollution is a global crisis, with polystyrene (PS) among the most recalcitrant polymers owing to its stable aromatic structure and resistance to natural degradation. Although insect larvae such as mealworms and ...

Background. The human gastrointestinal tract contains a large community of microorganisms, known as the gut microbiota. Their metabolic and immunological functions influence host physiology. Disruption of this community,...

Abstract Sinking macroalgal biomass carbon to the deep seafloor has been proposed as a means of removing atmospheric carbon dioxide, but the persistence of this carbon and its ecological impacts remain poorly constrained...

Introduction IBS is a chronic disorder of gut–brain interaction characterized by recurrent abdominal pain associated with altered bowel habits and substantial impairment in quality of life and psychosocial functioning....

The Nck adaptor protein recruits cytosolic effectors such as N-WASP that induce localized actin polymerization. Experimental aggregation of Nck SH3 domains at the membrane induces actin comet tails-dynamic, elongated fil...

Objective: Periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) combines selective alveolar decortication with orthodontic force to accelerate tooth movement, but its influence on the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) ...

Abstract Background The microbiome is significant for conservation biology and should be considered in threatened species management programs. Commensal microbes contribute important functions for host health, while path...

Mucinous cancers are characterized by tumor gland cells secreting copious amounts of mucus that forms gel-like structures. Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP), a rare yet prototypical mucinous malignancy, exemplifies this patho...

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that is becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide. It has a complex, multifactorial pathogenesis and limited therapeutic efficacy. Emerging evidence indicat...
