Effect of Advanced HIV Infection on the Respiratory Microbiome

TL;DR: The lung microbiome in subjects infected with HIV with advanced disease is altered compared with an uninfected population both in diversity and bacterial composition, which is speculated to contribute to chronic inflammation and lung complications seen in the HAART era.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hormonal regulation of cytochrome oxidase subunit messenger RNAs in rat Sertoli cells.

TL;DR: Using differential hybridization to screen a rat Sertoli cell cDNA library for hormonally regulated gene products, a clone, designated 13-10, which contained a 1.0-kilobase insert and hybridization revealed more than 99% homology with a portion of the sequence of rat liver cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COX I).

Household air pollution and the lung microbiome of healthy adults in Malawi: a cross-sectional study

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined whether the presence of black carbon in alveolar macrophages was associated with alterations in the lung microbiome in a Malawi population, and they found that high particulate exposure is associated with higher abundances of potentially pathogenic bacteria (Streptococcus, Neisseria) within their lung microbiome.
Journal ArticleDOI

CcpA Is Important for Growth and Virulence of Enterococcus faecium

TL;DR: It is shown that CcpA affects the growth of E. faecium, that an intact ccpA gene is important for full virulence, and that a cCPA mutation was partly responsible for the highly attenuated phenotype of TX6051.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of Mucosal Dysbiosis of Early Colonic Neoplasia.

TL;DR: It is suggested that perturbations to the normal adherent mucosal flora may constitute a risk factor for early neoplasia, demonstrating the potential impact of mucosal dysbiosis on the tissue microenvironment and behavior of ACF that may facilitate their progression towards more advanced forms ofNeoplasia.
