Abstract A dual chamber microbial fuel cells was developed using biomass derived reduced graphene oxide (E-rGO) synthesized from Ensete ventricosum corm waste as an anode material for simultaneous bioelectricity generati...

Abstract The significant economic burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) necessitates the development of innovative therapeutic approaches. Interest in the gut microbiota’s role in CRC has increased. Capecitabine, as a chem...

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 The complex relationship between the gut microbiome and immune system development during infancy is considered a key factor in the rising rates of pediatric allergic diseases. Food protein-induced all...

Background: Febrile illness in pediatric populations often poses a diagnostic challenge due to overlapping clinical features across various etiologies. While respiratory infections are common, urinary tract infections (U...

Abstract Nitrogen-doped carbon dots (CDs) were prepared from essential fluorescent amino acids, such as lysine (Lys), phenylalanine (Phe), tyrosine (Tyr), and tryptophan (Trp) by two routes, microwave and teflon-lined au...

Next-generation metagenomic sequencing (mNGS) enables the direct and unbiased detection of pathogens from clinical samples, overcoming the limitations of standard methods. It is particularly valuable in immunocompromised...

ABSTRACT Microorganisms are expected to play vital roles in the development of sustainable societies, but this idea is still poorly understood by the general public. In addition, it would also be important for the future...

Abstract Man-made synthetic/manufactured nano-objects (MNOs) are increasingly used in almost every scientific sector, including pharmaceutical, agricultural, food, and drug industries worldwide. Rapid advances in nanotec...

Bone infection is a severe disease caused by microbial invasion of bone tissue, characterized by inflammatory responses, bone destruction, and impaired repair. Its high recurrence rate and refractory nature have posed si...

Abstract Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), a metabolic syndrome with chronic excessive non-alcohol related triglyceride accumulation in liver cells, is characterised by a gradient of hepat...

ABSTRACT Staphylococcus aureus is a common upper respiratory tract (URT) pathobiont with high carriage rates in the upper airway disease chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). CRS is associated with increased prevalence and abund...

The gut microbiota has co-evolved with its host and forms an essential component of the human body. It is acquired at birth and continues to develop alongside the host, preserving its diversity and stability throughout l...

Abstract Background Gas-phase bioprocesses that immobilize microbial cells on solid carriers enable efficient conversion of volatile or poorly water-soluble substrates. Acinetobacter sp. Tol 5 is a highly adhesive bacter...

Abstract Dormancy, as a microbial survival strategy, plays a crucial role in sustaining microbial diversity. However, the large-scale distribution patterns of microbial dormancy and drivers remain poorly understood. Here...

"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...

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...

Abstract Microbial bioconversion using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) provides several human health benefits. Although whey and whey-derived bioactive compounds can contribute to an improvement in human health, the potential...

Abstract Background Cervicovaginal microbiota dysbiosis has been implicated in the progression of cervical cancer. Recent studies have reported an increased abundance of Porphyromonas species in the vaginal microbiota of...

IntroductionRecent research has highlighted the role of the gut microbiome in shaping the development and function of the mammalian immune system. Interactions between these complex networks of microbes and host cells se...

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 Late presentation of HIV-1 infection is linked to gut dysbiosis, impaired immune reconstitution, excess inflammation, immune activation, and increased morbidity and mortality. It is unclear if antiretroviral the...

Genetic alteration of the genes of cytoskeletal regulatory proteins (e.g., actin-related protein complex-1 [ARPC1]) results in severe immune and hematological defects. ARPC1B deficiency (ARPC1BD) is an immune-actinopathy...

Antibiotics have been found extensively in the environment, particularly in groundwater, sediments, and surface water. The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify antibiotic-resistant bacteria from wastewater c...
