All data generated or analyzed in this study are included in this article, the supplementary information files or the dedicated databases. Small-scale datasets are directly shown in the main figures, extended data figures or supplementary tables. Sequencing data generated in this study were concurrentl...
Future research directions will shed light on the additional importance of host-pathogen-vector interactions and environmental influences. For example, research on the microbiome - the collective genomes of the microorganisms that inhabit our bodies - is yielding increasing evidence for its role in ...
A unique, protective cell envelope contributes to the broad drug resistance of the nosocomial pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii. Here we use transposon insertion sequencing to identify A. baumannii mutants displaying altered susceptibility to a panel of d
In recent years, the food industry has shown increased interest in developing new methods with increased specificity, discriminatory power, and shorter detection times for the identification of spoilage microorganisms in fruit juices. Among these techniques, PCR-based detection systems are the most ...
Monocytes are a fundamental part of the innate immune defense against microorganisms [20]. Different studies have also related this type of immune cells to CeD, and gliadin peptides stimulate their production of IL-8 andTNF-α, especially in celiac patients [21,22]. It has been suggested that...
the German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures (DSMZ, Leibniz, Germany), and they were cultured in 1:1 Ham's F-12/DMEM (4.5 g/l glucose) supplemented with 10% FBS, 10 μg/ml insulin, 2 mMl-glutamine and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. MCF-7 cells were obtained from the ...
Chemical disinfection is typically the essential final step for water treatment plants (WTPs) to inactivate pathogenic microorganisms and reduce the overall risk from waterborne diseases. Free and combined chlorine, such as chlorine gas and hypochlorite salts, are widely used as chemical disinfectants due...

(with adjunctive imaging and laboratory tests), and are defined clinically as the presence of manifestations of an inflammatory process in any tissue below the malleoli in a person with diabetes mellitus3. Most DFIs will initially involve the superficial skin, however microorganisms can spread ...
gene and of which 90 genes (32%) were found in the liver tissue in which the chromatin interaction is observed (Supplementary Data6). Either chromatin interactions or eQTLs within PSC risk loci (Supplementary Data5) were shown on chromosomes 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 11, 16, 19, and 21, ...
