Aim: To examine the independent and joint associations of oral microbiome diversity and diet quality with risks of all-cause and cause-specific mortality.

Materials And Methods: We included 7,055 eligible adults from the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Oral microbiome diversity was measured with α-diversity, including the Simpson Index, observed amplicon sequence variants (ASVs), Faith's phylogenetic diversity, and Shannon-Weiner index. Dietary quality was assessed using the Healthy Eating Index-2015 (HEI-2015). Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the corresponding associations.

Results: During a mean follow-up of 9.0 years, we documented 382 all-cause deaths. We observed independent associations of oral microbiome diversity indices and dietary quality with all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.63; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.49-0.82 for observed ASVs; HR = 0.68, 95% CI: 0.52-0.89 for HEI-2015). Jointly, participants with the highest tertiles of both oral microbiome diversity (in Simpson index) and HEI-2015 had the lowest hazard of mortality (HR = 0.37, 95% CI: 0.23-0.60). In addition, higher oral microbiome diversity was associated with lower risks of deaths from cardiometabolic disease and cancer.

Conclusions: Higher oral microbiome α-diversity and diet quality were independently associated with lower risk of mortality.

Orally targeting nanostrategies of multiple nutraceuticals have attracted increasing attention in ulcerative colitis (UC) therapy for superior patient compliance, cost-effectiveness, and biocompatibility. However, the actual targeting delivery and bioefficacy of nutraceuticals are extremely restricted by their poor solubility, interior gastrointestinal retention, and base permeability. Herein, we developed controllable colon-targeting nanoparticles (NPs) composed of a quaternary ammonium chitosan (HTCC) shell and succinic acid-modified γ-cyclodextrin (SACD) core for precise UC treatment.

We provide 309 quality-controlled bacterial metagenome-assembled genomes recovered from supragingival plaque metagenomes. Samples were collected from head and neck cancer patients following radiotherapy, so the recovered genomes can be useful to investigate the effects of oral cavity irradiation on oral microbiome members.

Preliminary report: Protective effects of probiotics on cefovecin-induced gut dysbiosis in dogs.

The objective of this study was to evaluate whether supplementation with probiotics over a 2-week period stabilizes the gut microbiota in dogs following prolonged cefovecin treatment. A significant number of clinical veterinarians prescribe oral probiotics to dogs in conjunction with systemic antibiotics with the intention of protecting against gut dysbiosis. The effects of antibiotics and probiotics in dogs have not been extensively studied, however, and the optimal treatment for gut dysbiosis remains uncertain.

Introduction: The primary objective of our investigation was to assess the repercussions of prolonged exposure to heavy metals and smoking on the microbiome of the oral buccal mucosa. Concurrently, we aimed to elucidate the intricate interplay between external environmental exposures and the composition of the oral microbial ecosystem, thereby discerning its potential implications for human health.

Methods: Our study cohort was stratified into four distinct groups: MS (characterized by concurrent exposure to heavy metals and smoking), M (exposed solely to heavy metals), S (exposed solely to smoking), and C (comprising individuals serving as a control group).

Local immunomodulation with nanoparticles (NPs) and focused ultrasound (FUS) is recognized for triggering anti-tumor immunity. However, the impact of these tumor immunomodulations on sex-specific microbiome diversity at distant sites and their correlation with therapeutic effectiveness remains unknown. Here, we conducted local intratumoral therapy using immunogenic cell death-enhancing Calreticulin-Nanoparticles (CRT-NPs) and FUS in male and female mice.
