Background Low dietary fiber intake has been shown to disturb the gut microbiome
community, damage the mucus barrier, and promote pathogen susceptibility. However, little …

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies together with an improved access to
compute performance led to a cost-effective genome sequencing over the past several …

Objective Patients increasingly have access to their radiology reports. This systematic
review examined the opinions of patients, referring physicians, and radiologists over time on …

Background High-copper diets have been widely used to promote growth performance of
pigs, but excess copper supplementation can also produce negative effects on ecosystem …

Soil fertilization with wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) biosolids is associated with the
introduction of resistance genes (RGs), mobile genetic elements (MGEs) and potentially …

The underground community of soil organisms, known as soil biota, plays a critical role in

Despite the central role of microorganisms in soil fertility, little understanding exists
regarding the impact of management practices and soil microbial diversity on soil processes …

Gut microbiota stimulates the immune system and inhibits pathogens, and thus, it is critical
for disease prevention. Probiotics represent an effective alternative to antibiotics used for the …

Dendritic cell (DC) dysfunction is known to exacerbate intestinal pathologies, but the
mechanisms compromising DC-mediated immune regulation in this context remain unclear …

Background In piglets, low birth weight (LBW) is associated with intestinal dysfunction, which
affects their growth performance and causes economic losses. Objectives This study was …
