Candida albicans is a major fungal pathogen of humans. It exists as a commensal in the oral
cavity, gut or genital tract of most individuals, constrained by the local microbiota, epithelial …

The dynamic and polymicrobial oral microbiome is a direct precursor of diseases such as
dental caries and periodontitis, two of the most prevalent microbially induced disorders …

As a major etiological agent of human dental caries, Streptococcus mutans resides primarily
in biofilms that form on the tooth surfaces, also known as dental plaque. In addition to caries …

Biofilms are microbial communities embedded within an extracellular matrix, forming a
highly organized structure that causes many human infections. Dental caries (tooth decay) is …

Glucosyltransferases (Gtfs) play critical roles in the etiology and pathogenesis of
Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans)-mediated dental caries including early childhood caries …

Candida albicans is a common fungus of the human microbiota. While generally a harmless
commensal in healthy individuals, several factors can lead to its overgrowth and cause a …

Smart biomaterials can sense and react to physiological or external environmental stimuli
(eg, mechanical, chemical, electrical, or magnetic signals). The last decades have seen …

Designing an effective treatment strategy to combat oral diseases caused by complex
polymicrobial biofilms remains a great challenge. Herein, a series of metal‐phenolic network …

Fungi and bacteria encounter each other in various niches of the human body. There, they
interact directly with one another or indirectly via the host response. In both cases …

Candida albicans has been detected in root carious lesions. The current study aimed to
explore the action of this fungal species on the microbial ecology and the pathogenesis of …
