Although several studies have identified a distinct gut microbial composition in Parkinson's disease (PD), few investigated the oral microbiome or functional alteration of PD. We aimed to investigate connection between and changes PD-specific using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. The taxonomic was significantly different PD patients healthy controls (P = 0.003 0.001, respectively). Oral Lactobacillus more abundant associated with opportunistic pathogens (FDR-adjusted P < 0.038). Functional...
Invertebrates are a very attractive subject for studying host-microbe interactions because of their simple gut microbial community and host diversity. Studying the composition invertebrate microbiota determining factors is essential understanding symbiotic mechanism. Cephalopods invertebrates that have similar biological properties to vertebrates such as closed circulation system, an advanced nervous well-differentiated digestive system. However, it not currently known whether microbiomes...

ABSTRACT Abnormalities in the human microbiota are associated with etiology of allergic diseases. Although disease site-specific may be pathophysiology, role nasal is unclear. We sought to characterize site rhinitis, inferior turbinate, subjects rhinitis ( n = 20) and healthy controls 12) examine relationship mucosal occurrence, sensitized allergen number, allergen-specific total IgE levels. Microbial dysbiosis correlated significantly levels representing combined responses but not number...
