Molecular analysis of fungal microbiota in samples from healthy human skin and psoriatic lesions

TL;DR: Analysis of mycological microbiota in healthy skin and psoriatic lesions indicates the predominance of Malassezia organisms in healthy human skin, host-specific variation, stability over time, and as yet, no consistent patterns differentiating psoriasis skin from healthy skin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Achieving global targets for antimicrobial resistance

TL;DR: This paper believes that setting targets for reducing drug-resistant infections, adequate financing for global action, and defining the global health architecture to address AMR should be elements of a UN plan.
Journal Article

Helicobacter pylori strain-specific genotypes and modulation of the gastric epithelial cell cycle.

TL;DR: The diminished AGS cell viability, progression to G2-M, and apoptosis associated with cag+ H. pylori strains were dependent upon expression of vacA and genes within the cag pathogenicity island, which may explain heterogeneity in levels of gastric epithelial cell proliferation and apoptotic events found within H.pyloricolonized mucosa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitation of Major Human Cutaneous Bacterial and Fungal Populations

TL;DR: The first quantitation of the site and host specificities of major bacterial and fungal populations in human skin is provided and simple methods for their assessment in studies of disease are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

The equilibria that allow bacterial persistence in human hosts

TL;DR: It is proposed that microbes that have developed persistent relationships with human hosts have evolved cross-signalling mechanisms that permit homeostasis that conforms to Nash equilibria and, more specifically, to evolutionarily stable strategies, and that such ecosystems contain nested communities in which equilibrium at one level contributes toHomeostasis at another.
