Indigenous Yanomami gut microbiota protects against diet-induced metabolic dysfunction

This study transplants gut microbiota from Indigenous Yanomami and urban donors into mice to show Yanomami microbiota protects against diet-induced metabolic dysfunction.

Comparisons among Yanomami populations reveal transitional gut microbiome configurations under urban influence

The paper compares gut microbiomes of Yanomami populations with varying urban influence and a Belgian urban cohort, finding urban-associated features and shifts in microbial composition and function.

Multi-omics Analyses of Facial Skin in Acne Identify Distinct Microbial and Metabolic Features at Lesional and Non-lesional Sites

This study identifies distinct microbial and metabolic features in non-lesional acne skin using multi-omics analyses, showing molecular dysbiosis extends beyond visible lesions.

Depletion of skin bacteria by topical antibiotic treatment accelerates onset of Zika virus disease in mice.

This study shows that topical antibiotics reduce skin bacteria in mice, leading to faster Zika virus disease progression and higher viral loads in multiple tissues.

Algorithmic Learning for Auto-deconvolution of GC-MS Data to Enable Molecular Networking within GNPS.

The paper develops a machine learning workflow for auto-deconvolution of GC-MS data within GNPS, enabling molecular networking and applications in breathomics and volatilome mapping.
