In annually reoccurring patterns, microalgae form blooms that persist and decline thereby contributing massively to global biogeochemical cycles. The decline of blooms is mainly caused by nutrient limitation and goes ahead with the aging of individual algal cells. Nutrient intake can re-initiate ...

In animals and plants extracellular ATP (eATP) functions as signal and regulates the immune response. During inflammation intestinal bacteria are exposed to elevated eATP originating from the mucosa. However, whether bacteria respond to eATP is unclear. Here we show that non-pathogenic Escherichi...
The environmental contamination by manufactured chemicals has by some estimates exceeded the safe planetary boundary. Due to the widespread contamination of water and agricultural systems, a vast number of chemical pollutants make it into the food and hence into the human body. The gut microbiota...
Bacterial metabolism in oral biofilms is comprised of complex networks of nutritional chains and biochemical regulations. These processes involve both intraspecies and interspecies networks as well as interactions with components from host saliva, gingival crevicular fluid, and dietary intake. In...
Coffee influences multiple physiological processes, including gut function, stress, cognition, and the microbiome. However, the mechanisms underlying these effects remain poorly understood. In this study, we examined coffee’s impact on the microbiota–gut–brain axis—a bidirectional communication p...
