First-Year Dynamics of the Anaerobic Microbiome and Archaeome in Infants Oral and Gastrointestinal Systems

This study examines the development of oral and gastrointestinal microbiomes in infants, showing that breastfeeding influences the maturation of anaerobic and archaeal communities.

Proteomic and Metabolomic Profiling of Archaeal Extracellular Vesicles from the Human Gut

This study profiles proteomic and metabolomic features of archaeal extracellular vesicles from the human gut, revealing their structural similarity to bacterial EVs and their potential to modulate immune responses.

Expanding the cultivable human archaeome: Methanobrevibacter intestini sp. nov. and strain Methanobrevibacter smithii GRAZ-2 from human feces

The paper isolates and characterizes two new Methanobrevibacter species from human feces, highlighting genomic and phenotypic differences.

Expanding the cultivated human archaeome by targeted isolation of novel Methanobrevibacter strains from fecal samples

This study isolates and characterizes novel Methanobrevibacter strains from human fecal samples, expanding the cultivated archaeome and linking them to gastrointestinal health.

Age-Related Dynamics of Methanogenic Archaea in the Human Gut Microbiome: Implications for Longevity and Health

This study examines age-related changes in methanogenic archaea in the human gut microbiome, finding that centenarians have a methanogen composition similar to younger adults and that Ca. M. intestini plays a key role in network stability.

Fecal microbiota transplantation from individual with bipolar disorder and healthy control elicits distinct behaviors and metabolite profiles in mice

This study uses FMT from BD and healthy donors to show distinct behavioral and metabolite profiles in mice, implicating gut-brain signaling in BD.

The Dynamics of the Female Microbiome: Unveiling Abrupt Changes of Microbial Domains across Body Sites from Preconception to Perinatal Phase

This study tracks microbial and metabolic changes in women from preconception to postpartum, revealing significant shifts in oral and urogenital microbiomes and urinary metabolomes.

Acute appendicitis manifests as two microbiome state types with oral pathogens influencing severity

This study identifies two microbiome state types in acute appendicitis, with oral pathogens linked to severe cases and gut-associated microbes linked to less severe cases.

Methane emission of humans is explained by dietary habits, host genetics, local formate availability and a uniform archaeome

The paper identifies factors explaining human methane emission, including diet, genetics, formate availability, and microbiome composition.

The indoor environment - a potential source for intact human-associated anaerobes

This study shows that obligate anaerobic microbes can survive in the built environment for at least 6 hours, suggesting it is a potential source of human-associated anaerobes.

Human Milk Oligosaccharides modulate the risk for preterm birth in a microbiome dependent and independent manner

The paper investigates how human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) in blood and urine affect the risk of preterm birth through microbiome-dependent and independent mechanisms.

Exploring the archaeome: detection of archaeal signatures in the human body

The paper detects and quantifies archaeal signatures in human body samples using optimized methods, finding high archaeal prevalence in under-studied regions.

The International Space Station selects for microorganisms adapted to the extreme environment, but does not induce genomic and physiological changes relevant for human health

The study analyzes the microbial environment of the ISS, finding it similar to Earth's confined spaces, with microorganisms adapted to the extreme environment but not causing genomic changes relevant to human health.

Dead or Alive? Molecular life-dead distinction in human stool samples reveals significantly different composition of the microbial community

This study uses PMA treatment to distinguish live from dead microbes in human stool samples, showing that 100 M PMA effectively reduces signals from dead cells.
