Host foraging behavior and nest type influence prevalence of avian haemosporidian parasites in the Pantanal
Avian haemosporidians from the genera Plasmodium and Haemoproteus are vector transmitted parasites. A growing body of evidence suggests that...

Host–Microbe Interactions and Infectious Disease
Infectious disease is defined as the damage that occurs in a host because of a host–microbe interaction, where damage is the disruption of the normal... -
Gut microbiota-derived metabolites tune host homeostasis fate
The gut microbiota, housing trillions of microorganisms within the gastrointestinal tract, has emerged as a critical regulator of host health and...

Systemic Oncospheres: Host Inflammation and Cancer
Inflammation is a double-edged sword in a sense that it can eradicate pathogens and encourages tissue repair under homeostatic condition. However,... -
Microbial underdogs: exploring the significance of low-abundance commensals in host-microbe interactions
Our understanding of host-microbe interactions has broadened through numerous studies over the past decades. However, most investigations primarily...

Next-generation neuropeptide Y receptor small-molecule agonists inhibit mosquito-biting behavior
BackgroundFemale Aedes aegypti mosquitoes can spread disease-causing pathogens when they bite humans to obtain blood nutrients required for egg...

Hypoxia-inducible factor-driven glycolytic adaptations in host-microbe interactions
Mammalian cells utilize glucose as a primary carbon source to produce energy for most cellular functions. However, the bioenergetic homeostasis of...

Systemic Onco-Sphere: Host Metabolic System and Cancer
It is well established that patients with altered metabolism manifesting as obesity, metabolic syndrome and chronic inflammation have an increased... -
The Role of Anions in Rare-earth Activated Inorganic Host Materials for its Luminescence Characteristics
This work is inspired from the comprehensive work done by our research team aimed at improving the efficiency of white light emitting diodes (LEDs)...

Host species and habitat shape fish-associated bacterial communities: phylosymbiosis between fish and their microbiome
BackgroundWhile many studies have reported that the structure of the gut and skin microbiota is driven by both species-specific and habitat-specific...

Antennal transcriptome analysis reveals sensory receptors potentially associated with host detection in the livestock pest Lucilia cuprina
BackgroundLucilia cuprina (Wiedemann, 1830) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) is the main causative agent of flystrike of sheep in Australia and New Zealand....

Gut Microbes and Drosophila Behavior
Gut microbiota plays an essential role in gut–brain interactions. From insect to mammals, studies using germ-free animals have demonstrated that... -
Computational network analysis of host genetic risk variants of severe COVID-19
BackgroundGenome-wide association studies have identified numerous human host genetic risk variants that play a substantial role in the host immune...

The Gut Microbiota and Host Metabolism
The intestinal tract is colonized by a tremendous number of microorganisms, termed the gut microbiota. This microbial community can be considered as... -
Systemic Onco-Sphere: Host Neuronal System in Cancer
In human, the nervous system governs vital functional activities of many organs. As tumor is a systemic disease, it does not grow as an independent...
