Antibiotics directly impact host physiology independently of microbiota, altering immune and circadian functions in mice.
Transient CCR5 depletion using a bispecific antibody in neonatal macaques significantly reduces both active and latent SIV reservoirs, with most remaining aviraemic for over three months.
Farnesol sensing through the G-protein-coupled receptor Rsd1 regulates dormancy and germination in Fusarium pseudograminearum, with bacterial interactions influencing this process.
Heterozygous HbS is strongly associated with parasites carrying Pfsa+ alleles in asymptomatic P. falciparum infections, indicating a selective advantage for these alleles in HbS carriers.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses mechanosensing of cell-cell collisions to regulate collective motion, with collision-induced reversals decreasing alignment at high density.
Thiamine cross-feeding between Dioszegia hungarica and Albugo laibachii promotes their coexistence in the leaf microbiome.

Enterobacteriaceae synergize with dietary components to promote Segatella copri dominance over Bacteroidaceae in the human gut.
An ancient GTPase complex in alveolates gates exocytosis for defence and parasitism, with 100% conservation across ciliates and apicomplexan parasites.
Fusobacterium nucleatum amplifies Bacteroides fragilis-induced neuron loss and gut dysmotility in mice, with a 2-hydroxybutyric acid-mediated mechanism.
A fungal gene encoding a β-1,3-glucanase (GH64) is linked to multihost infection in Plectosphaerella cucumerina and other plant-colonizing fungi.

Oncogenic viruses induce LAMP2A SUMOylation via TRIM32, activating CMA to promote tumor growth and viral persistence in vivo.
VRC01 prophylaxis in HIV prevention selects for escape mutants in 8 of 26 treated participants, with mutations conferring resistance emerging after infection.
HIDEN-SEQ reveals conditionally essential viral genes, including unknown antidefence factors, across diverse bacterial hosts and growth conditions in phage T4.
Phage Tn-seq identifies essential genes across diverse phages, including jumbo and hypermodified DNA phages, with 100% success in gene essentiality assignment.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cystic fibrosis lungs induces pathogenic IFNγ(+)Th17 cells that directly promote lung damage and chronic inflammation.
Sequential gene loss in monophasic Salmonella Typhimurium ST34 underpins its clonal expansion as a prevalent zoonotic lineage.
