Emerging evidence suggests that the nasal microbiome may influence host susceptibility to initial development and severity of respiratory viral infections. While not as extensively studied as the microbiota of the alimentary tract, it is no...
Macromolecular composition and substrate range of three marine fungi across major cell types [0.03%]
三种海洋真菌主要细胞类型的宏观分子组成和底物范围

Marine fungi exist as three major cell types: unicellular yeasts, filamentous hyphae and zoosporic early-diverging forms, such as the Chytridiomycota (chytrids). To begin to understand the ecological and biogeochemical influence of these ce...
Bacterial-viral interactions: a factor that facilitates transmission heterogeneities [0.03%]
细菌-病毒相互作用：一种促进传播异质性的因素

The transmission of infectious diseases is characterized by heterogeneities that are shaped by the host, the pathogen, and the environment. Extreme forms of these heterogeneities are called super-spreading events. Transmission heterogeneiti...
Serum antibodies to surface proteins of Chlamydia trachomatis as candidate biomarkers of disease: results from the Baltimore Chlamydia Adolescent/Young Adult Reproductive Management (CHARM) cohort [0.03%]
