Immunology
IgA can modulate the exposure and immune response to commensal microbes, and its levels determine the severity of immune dysregulation and clinical symptoms in people with IgA deficiency.
An altered metasystem linking the gut microbiota and systemic immune response could lead to impaired host defense and increased vulnerability to hospital-acquired infections in cases of severe illness.
The immune system tolerates flagellins of commensal bacteria while mounting an immune response against flagellins produced by pathogens.
Microbiota alterations in COVID-19 patients appeared to be associated with secondary infections of the blood by gut bacteria: four cases of positive blood cultures of Staphylococcus species were identified.
The findings of a recent study suggest that a specific strain of Subdoligranulum can drive the production of autoantibodies in rheumatoid arthritis.
The findings of a new research show that gut bacteria can become harmful over time by gaining the ability to escape the intestine and persist in other organs where they…
The findings of a new research may inform strategies for treating intestinal diseases by targeting pathogens without killing beneficial gut bacteria.
The findings of a recent study suggest that the production of inositol lipids is common in Bacteroidetes and other gut-associated bacteria, and it may be a means of cross-kingdom communication.
The impact of age-induced microbiota alterations facilitates the accumulation of CML metabolite in the microglia of mice and humans.
Researchers have found that a specific microbial metabolite may boost the efficacy of anticancer therapy in people with TNBC. The findings could inform the development of improved treatments for TNBC.
