Orally Administered Exosomes Alleviate Mouse Contact Dermatitis through Delivering miRNA-150 to Antigen-Primed Macrophages Targeted by Exosome-Surface Antibody Light Chains

Phages are typically known for having a limited host range, targeting various strains within a specific bacterial species. However, factors like the phylogeny or epidemiology…

Rotavirus causes life-threatening diarrhea in children, resulting in ~200,000 deaths/year. The current treatment during infection is Oral Rehydration Solution which successfully replenishes fluids but does…

Acute gastroenteritis remains the second leading cause of death among children under the age of 5 worldwide. While enteric viruses are the most common etiology,…

The plant rhizosphere is a highly selective environment where bacteria have developed traits to establish themselves or outcompete other microbes. These traits include bacterial secretion…

Changes in the composition of the human microbiota can negatively impact human health. Probiotic bacteria like many lactobacilli help prevent or repair dysbiosis but it…

Plant roots grow in association with a community of microorganisms collectively known as the rhizosphere microbiome. Immune activation in response to elicitors like the flagellin-derived…

Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) strains belonging to the epidemic BI/NAP1/027 (RT027) group have been associated with increased transmissibility and disease severity. In addition to the…

TOR, a widely conserved eukaryotic protein kinase, forms TORC1 and TORC2 to regulate diverse cell signaling. TORC1 controls protein synthesis, cell cycle, and autophagy, whereas…

Mounting evidence supports the potential of dietary bioactive compounds to reduce chronic disease risk. Recently, the biological activity of N-trans-caffeoyltyramine (NCT) and N-trans-feruloyltyramine (NFT) has…

Determining why only a fraction of encountered or applied bacterial strains engraft in a given person’s microbiome is crucial for understanding and engineering these communities.…
