Our paper "Gene ancestries reveal diverse microbial associations during eukaryogenesis.” is finally out in Nature.
Eukaryogenesis was likely a gradual process shaped by multiple microbial partners and virus-mediated gene transfer, rather than a single binary symbiosis.

Happy to see this published!
A fantastic collaboration with Yolanda Sanz and her team highlighting the importance of the gut microbiota and immunometabolism in obesity.

Featured Article: Metabolic flexibility allows neutrophils to fight Candida
Upon C. albicans glucose consumption, neutrophils upregulate PYGL-mediated glycogenolysis through a dectin-1/PKA axis, thus sustaining antifungal function in glucose-low tissues

The gut microbiota plays a central role in modulating both immunity and metabolism. Obesity-associated microbiota configuration is a critical driver of persistent inflammatory activation and immune...
Neutrophils depend on glucose for their antifungal activities. Candida albicans consumes
glucose, thus posing metabolic challenges for neutrophils. Choi and colleagues show
that neutrophils upregulate...
Nature Microbiology, Published online: 25 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41564-026-02369-5Multi-omics analysis of the plant fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae reveals the mitophagy pathway regulator Cox6 as a druggable target for antifungal treatment.
Mucosal barriers play critical roles in the interaction with commensal and pathogenic microbes. Here the authors show non-canonical IL-22 signalling results in mucosal remodelling in a murine model du...
Introduction. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a malignant tumour in which dysbiosis of the gut microbiome is a contributing factor in the development of cancer. However, the species composition and species-specific changes in the gut microbiome related to CRC still require comprehensive investigation.
Hypothesis. There is a significant difference in gut microbiome between CRC patients and healthy individuals.
Aim. The microbiome-based association test methods are used for the association between the microbiome and host phenotypes, and linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) analysis is...
