Colorectal carcinoma has increasingly been reported to be associated with gut microbial dysbiosis. Bacteroides, Fusobacterium, Faecalibacterium, Blautia, etc., are microbes commonly colorectal carcinoma. Gut dysregulation secondary infectious, inflammatory, toxin exposure or change in dietary habits coupled the disruption of inner mucosal layer overlying luminal epithelium is hypothesized as in...

Redox variations across the Permian-Triassic boundary (PTB) have long been debated, especially during proliferation of PTB microbialites. Here, we report redox fluctuations to evaluate links between two based on pyrite framboid analysis from basin platform settings in South China. During end-Permian extinction, abundant framboids indicate a widespread anoxia that was likely direct cause extinct...

p204 is a member of the interferon-inducible p200 family proteins in mice. The p200 family has been reported to be multifunctional regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and senescence. Interferon-inducible protein 16 (IFI16) is regarded as the human ortholog of p204 in several studies. This is possibly due to the similarity of their structures. However the consistency of ...

Macroautophagy (hereafter referred to as autophagy) is a well-conserved intracellular degradation process. Recent studies examining cells lacking the autophagy genes Atg5 and Atg7 have demonstrated that autophagy plays essential roles in cell survival during starvation, in innate cell clearance of microbial pathogens, and in neural cell maintenance. However, the role of autophagy in T lymphocyt...

The present work describes the fabrication, structure and functional characterization of composite microcapsules containing encapsulated viable yeast cells, fluorescently labeled liposomes and magnetic nanoparticles embedded in a calcium alginate matrix produced by ink-jet printing. The proliferation of the encapsulated cells under favorable conditions (presence of nutrients, temperature) is us...

A significant contributor to cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide is head neck cancer (HNC). Depending on the affected site, its etiology may include risk factors like geographic differences, genetic predisposition, gender, age, type of diet, smoking and/or alcohol consumption habits, sexual preferences. Dysbiosis, or disruption oral microbiota balance, another proposed causative fa...

Bilge wastewater is a high strength, typically saline wastewater, originating from operation of ships. In this study, the treatment real bilge was tested using pure isolated aerobic strains and mixed cultures (aerobic anaerobic). The Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) ecotoxicity decrease were monitored over time, while microbial dynamics alterations in also recorded. Pseudodonghicola xiamenensis, Ha...

Management of chronic diabetic ulcers remains as a major challenge in healthcare which requires extensive multidisciplinary approaches to ensure wound protection, management excess exudates and promoting healing. Developing healing patches that can act protective barrier support is highly needed manage ulcers. In order boost the potential patch material, bioactive agents such growth factors be ...

A growing appreciation that the intestinal microbiota might exert changes on central nervous system via gut-brain has emerged as a new research frontier in neurological disorders. Moreover, approaches for studying and manipulating gut microbiome, including metabolomics faecal transplantation, have highlighted tremendous potential microbes neuroinflammation, metabolic, neuroendocrine signaling p...
