A 2026 review finds that bacteriophages can selectively alter gut bacteria, but durable human microbiome reconstruction remains unproven.

In a first-of-its-kind case report, clinicians describe adjunctive bacteriophage therapy in an 11-year-old girl with severe refractory PANDAS, observing sustained ...

A new review links enrichment of gut E. coli to IgA nephropathy through LPS-driven immune activation, pyroptosis, and metabolite-mediated kidney ...

Researchers in Germany have characterized a carbapenem-resistant Citrobacter braakii strain from hospital sewage and a lytic Kayfunavirus phage from the ...

Researchers in Türkiye have isolated and fully characterized a lytic bacteriophage, KBU_SV1, that kills carbapenem-resistant E. coli, disrupts biofilms and ...

A new transposon-insertion sequencing method called HIDEN-SEQ systematically maps gene essentiality in bacteriophages and uncovers previously unknown antidefence factors.

Researchers have isolated six infectious Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophages, along with a live strain of the bacterium itself, directly from human ...

Researchers have built a phylogeny-agnostic machine-learning framework that predicts strain-level phage–host interactions from genome sequences alone and validated it experimentally ...
