Diversity of human vaginal bacterial communities and associations with clinically defined bacterial vaginosis
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common syndrome associated with numerous adverse health outcomes in women. Despite its medical importance, the etiology and microbial ecology of BV remain poorly understood. We used broad-range PCR to census the community structure of the healthy and BV-affected vaginal microbial ecosystems and synthesized current publicly available bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequence ...

Impact of operating history on mixed culture fermentation microbial ecology and product mixture
Mixed culture fermentation is an alternative to pure culture fermentation for production of biofuels and valuable products. A glucose-fed, continuous reactor was operated cyclically to a central pH of 5.5 from a number of precedent pHs, from 4.5 to 7.5. At each pH, stable chemical production was reached after 2 retention times and was held for least 2 further retention times prior to the next ...

Linking soil process and microbial ecology in freshwater
Abstract Soil microorganisms mediate many processes such as nitrification, denitrification, and methanogenesis that regulate ecosystem functioning and also feed back to influence atmospheric chemistry. These processes are of particular interest in freshwater wetland ecosystems where nutrient cycling is highly responsive to fluctuating hydrology and nutrients and soil gas releases may be ...

CD Genomics Perspective: Bioinformatic Analysis for Microbial Metagenomics
Introduction to Bioinformatics for Microbial Metagenomics In microbial ecology, metagenomic techniques are now widely utilized to research microbial communities in greater depth, including many strains that cannot be produced in the lab. Microbial bioinformatics may now be used to mine large metagenomic datasets for broad patterns that govern microbial communities. Typical metagenomic and ...

Applications of Metagenomics in Biotechnology and Health Care
Microbes are present almost everywhere. They play a vital role in cycling carbon, release important compounds, and may be associated with infectious diseases. Metagenomics is the culture-independent genomic research of microbial communities. Metagenomics presents a powerful tool to study prokaryotes and viruses in the environment via the analysis of their DNA obtained directly from environmental ...

ELife: T Interferon Suppresses Inflammatory Diseases by Balancing the Microbiome
The maintenance of immune homeostasis involves a synergistic relationship between the host and the microbiome. Canonical interferon (IFN) signaling controls the response to acute microbial infection through the involvement of STAT1 transcription factors. However, the contribution of tonic levels of interferon to immune homeostasis in the absence of acute infection remains largely unexplored. The ...

Introduction to Microbiomics
Microorganisms and their environment constitute a complex ecosystem, which is an important part of the biodiversity on earth. The microbiome refers to the collection of all microorganisms and their genetic information in a specific environment or ecosystem, and its connotation includes the interaction of microorganisms with their environment and host. Microbiomics is the study of the microbiome, ...

CD Genomics Perspective: High-Throughput Sequencing Approach to Explore the Human Microbiome
The Use of Microbiome Sequencing in Cancer Research A growing body of evidence now suggests that human microbial dysbiosis has a crucial role in cancer development and progression. Unlike earlier studies relying on culturing bacteria from the tissue of cancer, high-throughput sequencing methods have enabled genotyping the microbial ecosystem within cancer tissue from hundreds to thousands of ...

Sequencing-Based Methods and Techniques for Microbial Identification
Introduction to Microbial Identification Microbiology research revolves around the detection and identification of microorganisms. It can be used in a variety of fields, including the environment, industry, and medicine. Microbial detection and identification techniques have evolved over time, from conventional methods that are based heavily on culture, morphology, physiology, pathology, and ...

Vaginal lactobacilli inhibit growth and hyphae formation of Candida albicans
Abstract Lactobacillusspecies are the predominant vaginal microbiota found in healthy women of reproductive age and help to prevent pathogen infection by producing lactic acid, H2O2 and anti-microbial compounds. Identification of novel vaginalLactobacillus isolates that exhibit efficient colonisation and secrete anti-Candida factors is a promising strategy to prevent vulvovaginal candidiasis. ...

Administration of Lactobacillus fermentum KBL375 Causes Taxonomic and Functional Changes in Gut Microbiota Leading to Improvement of Atopic Dermatitis
Abstract Gut microbiota play an important role in immune responses and energy metabolism. In this study, we evaluated whether administration of Lactobacillus fermentum (L. fermentum) KBL375 isolated from healthy Korean feces improves the atopic dermatitis using the house dust mite (Dermatophagoides farinae)-induced atopic dermatitis (AD) mouse model. Administration of L. fermentum KBL375 ...

Lactobacillus paracasei KBL382 administration attenuates atopic dermatitis by modulating immune response and gut microbiota
ABSTRACT Administration of probiotics has been linked to immune regulation and changes in gut microbiota composition, with effects on atopic dermatitis (AD). In this study, we investigated amelioration of the symptoms of AD using Lactobacillus paracaseiKBL382 isolated from the feces of healthy Koreans. Mice with Dermatophagoides farinaeextract (DFE)-induced AD were fed 1 × 109 CFU ...
