Host tracheal and intestinal microbiomes inhibit Coccidioides growth in vitro

S. Tejeda-Garibay, L. Zhao, N. R. Hum, M. Pimentel, A. L. Diep, B. Amiri, S. Sindi, D. Weilhammer, G. G. Loots, K. K. Hoyer

This study shows that host tracheal and intestinal microbiomes inhibit Coccidioides growth in vitro, but antibiotic depletion reduces this inhibition, suggesting microbiome disruption may worsen fungal infections.

Interleukin-10 knockout mice do not reliably exhibit macroscopic inflammation: a natural history endoscopic surveillance study

S. Y. Kim, J. Park, G. Leite, M. Pimentel, A. Rezaie

This study tracks endoscopic changes in IL-10 knockout mice and finds that 40% do not develop colitis, with all cases resolving spontaneously.
