Toxocariasis, mainly caused by Toxocara canis, and to a lesser extent, Toxocara cati, is a neglected parasitic zoonosis. The mechanisms that underlie the changes in lipid metabolism of T. canis infection in Beagle dogs' lungs remain unclear. Lipidomics is a rapidly emer...
The mechanistic role of the airway microbiome in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains largely unexplored. We present a landscape of airway microbe-host interactions in COPD by an in-depth profiling of sputum metagenome, metabolome, host transcriptome and proteome from 99 COPD pati...
Background In large-scale poultry farming, broilers of the same breed, sharing a common genetic background and identical management conditions, nevertheless exhibit considerable individual variation in body weight. Multitudinous stressors can profoundly influence the host microbiota, thereby...
Background: Staphylococcus aureus (SA) remains a global health threat due to its increasing drug resistance and intracellular persistence, which compromise the efficacy of conventional antibiotics. Host-directed therapy (HDT) has emerged as a promising alternative by modulating host...
