The diverse enteric viral communities that infect microbes and the animal host collectively
constitute the gut virome. Although recent advances in sequencing and analysis of …

Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) sensing commensal microorganisms in the intestine
induce tightly controlled tonic signaling in the intestinal mucosa, which is required to …

The composition of the human microbiome is considered a major source of interindividual
variation in immunity and, by extension, susceptibility to diseases. Intestinal bacteria have …

The enteric virome consists largely of bacteriophages and prophages related to commensal
bacteria. Bacteriophages indirectly affect the host immune system by targeting their …

The human virome comprises viruses that infect host cells, virus‐derived elements in our
chromosomes, and viruses that infect other organisms, including bacteriophages and plant …

Background The human virome consists of animal‐cell viruses causing transient infections,
bacteriophage (phage) predators of bacteria and archaea, endogenous retroviruses and …

The human gut virome is comprised of diverse commensal and pathogenic viruses. The
colonization by these viruses begins right after birth through vaginal delivery, then continues …

Gut virome has been shown to yield some beneficial effects on humans, being deeply
involved in physiology, inflammation, immunity, and disease. Together with transkingdom …

In recent years, there has been ample evidence illustrating the effect of microbiota on gut
immunity, homeostasis, and disease. Most of these studies have engaged more efforts in …

The mammalian virome includes diverse commensal and pathogenic viruses that evoke a
broad range of immune responses from the host. Sustained viral immunomodulation is …
