Introduction Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Over 1 million residents in the United States and…

Introduction Mastitis, an inflammatory response of the mammary parenchyma, affects almost all lactating mammals especially high-yield cows (1). It can lead to decreased milk production, severely restraining dairy industry development…

Within this Research Topic (RT) we have collected articles addressing microbial stress with special attention on methodology and applications in food technology, medicine or microbiotechnology. We anticipated contributions from members…

Biochemical characterization of AmyZ1 expressed by B. subtilis WB600 In our previous study, AmyZ1 expressed in recombinant E. coli existed in the form of inclusion bodies [8]. In order to…

The L-carnosine synthase gene mining from deep-sea sediment metagenome Firstly, a local unique protein set was constructed from a deep-sea sediment metagenome (unpublished data). Briefly, our in-depth metagenomic sequencing reads…

The positive correlation between the pI value and the secretion level We previously developed the XTHHly platform, which could be used for the secretory production and simple purification of peptides…

Comparison of the fermentability between detoxicated SECS and starchy feedstocks for butanol production As Table 1 shows, the main components of SECS are glucose (59.3%), xylose (23.4%) and cellulose (11.35%);…

1. Introduction The importance of understanding natural microbial communities in a scenario of global change is increasingly recognized (Hutchins and Fu, 2017). In the open ocean, where external outputs of…

1 Introduction Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical syndrome that occurs during severe infections, shock, trauma, and burns and is mostly caused by sepsis (Force et al., 2012;…

The present study firstly investigated whether migraine-related cephalic allodynia could induce microbial composition alteration in a rat model. Our results showed that repeated dural IS infusions induced cephalic allodynia, nociception-related…
