Analysis of Spermine Oxidase gene and proinflammatory cytokines expression in gastric cancer patients with and without Helicobacter pylori infection – A pilot study in Polish population Open
The findings confirm that SMOX plays a role in gastric carcinogenesis. However, further research is needed on the role of inflammatory and other factors involved in this process to identify targets for cancer immunotherapy.

<i>Helicobacter pylori</i> and Epstein-Barr Virus Co-Infection in Polish Patients with Gastric Cancer – A Pilot Study Open
The infectious agents may be the etiological factor of up to 15–20% of cancers. In stomach cancer, attention is paid to Helicobacter pylori and Epstein-Barr virus, both of which cause gastritis and can lead to tumor development. In co-infe…

Can negative results of 40 g glucose load test exclude auto‐brewery syndrome? Comment to: “Auto‐brewery syndrome caused by oral fungi and periodontal disease bacteria” by Takahashi <i>et al</i>. Acute Med Surg. 2021 May 3; 8: e652. Open
In 2021 Takahashi et al.1 published an interesting case report describing a man with auto-brewery syndrome (ABS), supposedly caused by the production of ethanol by oral fungi and periodontal disease bacteria. The authors reckoned that the …

The uninvited guests of our microbiome: <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> and Epstein-Barr virus and their role in gastric cancerogenesis Open
It is well established that human body is an ecosystem for numerous microorganisms: bacteria, fungi, eukaryotic parasites, and viruses. They form a “microbiome” that under conditions of homeostasis remains in a friendly mutual relationship…

The occurrence of potentially pathogenic filamentous fungi in recreational surface water as a public health risk Open
Microfungi occurring in surface water may represent an important health risk. Recreational water reservoirs are a potential reservoir of pathogenic fungi. The aim of the study was to assess the diversity of mycobiota in selected artificial…

Neuroinfections caused by fungi Open
Although the number of fungal species causing CNS mycosis is increasing, only some possess well-defined treatment standards (e.g., cryptococcal meningitis and CNS aspergillosis). The early diagnosis of fungal infection, accompanied by iden…

ROLE OF MICROBIOTA IN MAINTAINING THE HOMEOSTASIS IN THE HUMAN BODY Open
The human body is believed to be occupied by around 4 × 10 13 microorganism cells, which is 10 times the number of cells of the human body. Multidisciplinary studies conducted worldwide by microbiologists and physicians suggest that the mi…
