Malaria, caused by Plasmodium species, remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality globally. Gut bacteria can influence the severity of malaria, but the contribution of specific bacteria to the risk of severe malaria is unknown. Here, multiomics approaches demonstrate specific...
Malaria is a major public health problem, but many of the factors underlying the pathogenesis of this disease are not well understood. Here, we demonstrate in Malian children that susceptibility to febrile malaria following infection with Plasmodium falciparum is associated with the comp...
Modulating cell endocytosis activity to reduce host susceptibility to virus represents a promising strategy for antiviral drug development. In this study, we reveal that lactate transporter SLC16A3 as a critical host factor for reducing diverse virus invasion. By performing metabolomics, proteomi...
Regional structure of the intestinal epithelium is critical for its function and is associated with the risk of specific gut diseases. However, how regionalization is established and how it influences disease susceptibility remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role of the gut micr...
Ischemic stroke is a highly prevalent disease with constrained therapeutic options, and recent studies suggest that gut microbiota significantly influences its development. However, it remains unclear whether the gut microbiota has an impact on the susceptibility of ischemic stroke. Here, we aime...
Aspergillus fumigatus is a notorious opportunistic pathogen that causes Invasive Aspergillosis (IA) infections with high mortality in immunosuppressed individuals. Long-term antifungal drug azole abuse in clinical treatment and agriculture renders it ineffectual or drug resistant. Drug resistance...
Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) mutations can result in clonal hematopoiesis (CH) with heterogeneous clinical outcomes. Here, we investigated how the cell state preceding Tet2 mutation impacts the pre-malignant phenotype. Using an inducible system for clonal analysis of myeloid progenitors...
