A Phylogenetic, Ecological, and Functional Characterization of Non-Photoautotrophic Bacteria in the Lichen Microbiome
(2011)Although common knowledge dictates that the lichen thallus is formed solely by a fungus (mycobiont) that develops a symbiotic relationship with an alga and/or cyanobacterium (photobiont), the non-photoautotrophic bacteria ... -
Chromatin Accessibility Dynamics Underlying Development and Disease
(2015)Despite a largely static DNA sequence, our genomes are incredibly malleable. Comparative studies of chromatin features between different cell types, tissues, and species have revealed tremendous differences in how the genome ... -
Dendritic cells in the intestine: sensing of microbiota and inducing of inflammatory bowel disease
(2017)Dendritic cells (DCs) are potent antigen presenting cells (APC) that sense microbes and induce T cell activation and functional differentiation. The APC function of DCs is upregulated by the signaling pathway downstream ... -
Short-chain fatty acids are produced by zebrafish microbiota and influence glucose homeostasis
(2018-04-20)Increasingly, attention has been drawn to the association between gut microbiomes and host health, particularly to the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) from indigestible carbohydrates by colonic microbiota. It ...
