Bacteriophages (BPs) are viruses that can infect and kill bacteria without any negative effect
on human or animal cells. For this reason, it is supposed that they can be used, alone or in …

The human body is host to large numbers of bacteriophages (phages)–a diverse group of
bacterial viruses that infect bacteria. Phage were previously regarded as bystanders that …

Bacteriophages are the most abundant members of the microbiota and have the potential to
shape gut bacterial communities. Changes to bacteriophage composition are associated …

Hundreds of trillions of diverse bacteriophages (phages) peacefully thrive within and on the
human body. However, whether and how phages influence their mammalian hosts is poorly …

Bacteriophages are not forgotten viruses anymore: scientists and practitioners seek to
understand phage pharmacokinetics in animals and humans, investigating bacteriophages …

Bacteriophages—viruses that infect bacteria—are abundant within our bodies, but their
significance to human health is only beginning to be explored. Here, we synthesize what is …

Although bacteriophages have been overshadowed as therapeutic agents by antibiotics for
decades, the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria and a better understanding of the …

Bacteriophage are sophisticated cellular parasites that can not only parasitize bacteria but
are increasingly recognized for their direct interactions with mammalian hosts. Phage …

Bacteriophages (hence termed phages) are viruses that target bacteria and have long been
considered as potential future treatments against antibiotic-resistant bacterial infection …

The ability of bacteriophages to kill bacteria is well known, as is their potential use as
alternatives to antibiotics. As such, bacteriophages reach high doses locally through …
