Abstract Soils are the primary environmental reservoir of plant pathogens impacting food production and ecosystem productivity worldwide. Yet, some soils can also suppress pathogens through environmental and microbial re...

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells express a semi-invariant T cell receptor (TCR) that detects microbial metabolites presented by the nonpolymorphic major histocompatibility complex (MHC)–like molecule MR1. Th...

Abstract Background Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) emerging as a standout in the clinical setting. In this study, we harnessed the power of mNGS to explore the pathogenic spectrum and temporal variations i...

The aim of this study was to perform a current molecular characterization of bovine pathogenic Escherichia coli strains isolated from random samplings in Argentinean dairy farms. Rectal swabs were obtained from 395 (63.7...

The aim of this review is to describe the main theoretical findings and research conclusions about obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in the perinatal period. On one hand, epidemiological studies show that the risk of O...

Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) are a serious threat to global food security, with estimated annual losses exceeding $173 billion. Beyond their direct damage, interactions between PPNs and other phytopathogens can lead ...

Abstract Zoonoses are among the greatest threats to human health, with many zoonotic pathogens believed to have emerged following the Neolithic transition. Palaeomicrobiological investigations of the zooarchaeological re...

Strains of Pseudomonas fluorescens and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, isolated from soybean rhizosphere, inhibited mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, in vitro. Leaves from Brassica napus seedl...

Introduction. The correlation between psoriasis and metabolic syndrome has been well established. Psoriasis may also coexist with autoimmune blistering disease, mainly bullous pemphigoid. The pathogenetic relationship b...

Background: Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) from Gram-negative bacteria are spherical lipid bilayer nanostructures with diameters of 20 to 250 nm. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), a keystone periodontal pathogen,...

To investigate the role and importance of iinmun system on the pathogenesis of uncomplicated RUTIs, 24 children with uncomplicated RUTIs (21 girls, 3 beys; age 5.81.0 years) were studied in the present study. Absolute ...

Brucella pathogens are responsible for brucellosis, a worldwide zoonosis. They are facultative intracellular pathogens characterized by their asymmetric division and their unipolar growth. This growth modality generates ...

Abstract Background The risk of outbreaks escalating into pandemics has soared with globalization. Therefore, understanding transmission mechanisms of infectious diseases has become critical to formulating global public ...

Zinc is a key micronutrient of the skin, where it is responsible, among others, for regulating the processes of melanocyte proliferation, maturation, and differentiation. Recent research has revealed a possible link betw...

ABSTRACT Background Thoracic ultrasonography (TUS) could improve antibiotic treatment selection in cattle with respiratory diseases. Hypothesis/Objectives Evaluate the association between respiratory pathogens and consol...

BackgroundRegulator of telomere elongation helicase 1 (RTEL1) is a gene that encodes a DNA helicase crucial for DNA repair and telomere maintenance. It belongs to a family of genes associated with telomere biology disord...

This investigation focused on the compilation and analysis of the incidence of foodborne diseases and foodborne outbreaks related to protein-based foods, published in official surveillance reports from the European Union...

Abstract Background Lynch syndrome (LS) is a common hereditary cancer predisposition syndrome caused by pathogenic germline mutations in MMR genes. This study aimed to conduct LS screening in a South Chinese Endometrial ...

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a complex multifactorial infectious disorder of the female reproductive tract, associated with severe long-term sequelae including infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and chronic pelvic p...

The prevalence of co-morbid gastrointestinal symptoms is high in dialysis patients, while abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, anorexia and abdominal bloating are the second-most common group of symptoms following dys...

Mansonella ozzardi (Nematoda: Onchocercidae) is an understudied filarial nematode, originally described by Patrick Manson in 1897, that can be transmitted by two families of dipteran vectors, biting midges (most of them ...

Abstract Tick-borne pathogens pose significant threats to wildlife health and may serve as sources of zoonotic infections. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of Anaplasma spp., particularly Anaplasma ovis, in...

ABSTRACT Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, has often been linked to oral transmission through açai consumption. Molecular methods that allow fast and accurate identification of the pathogen are ...
