The human gut is a complex ecosystem that supports billions of living species, including bacteria, viruses, archaea, phages, fungi, and unicellular eukaryotes. Bacteria give genes enzymes for microbial host-produced compounds, establishing symbiotic link between the external environment host at both systemic levels. microbiome, which primarily made up commensal critical maintaining healthy host's immune system, aiding digestion, synthesizing essential nutrients, protecting against pathogenic as well influencing endocrine, neural, humoral, immunological functions metabolic pathways. Qualitative, quantitative, and/or topographic shifts can alter resulting in dysbiosis dysfunction, contribute to variety noncommunicable illnesses, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, inflammatory bowel cancer, irritable syndrome. While most evidence date observational does not establish direct causation, ongoing clinical trials advanced genomic techniques are steadily enhancing our understanding these intricate interactions. This review will explore key aspects relationship microbiota, eubiosis, health highlighting emerging strategies microbiome engineering potential therapeutic approaches various conditions.

Over the past decades, rising antibiotic resistance bacteria (ARB) are continuing to emerge as a global threat due potential public health risk. Rapidly evolving and its persistence in environment, have underpinned need for more studies identify possible sources limit spread. In this context, not commonly studied neglected genetic material called extracellular DNA (eDNA) is gaining increased attention it can be one of significant drivers transmission ARGS (eARGs) via horizontal gene transfer (HGT) competent environmental diverse antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs) environment. Consequently, review highlights that address occurrence eDNA encoding eARGs impact on resistome. review, we also brief recent dedicated technological advancements accelerating extraction efficiency treatment technologies reducing focuses ecological

Microbiome research is a highly transdisciplinary field with wide range of applications and methods for studying it, involving different computational approaches models. The fact that people host radically microbiota highlights forensic perspectives in understanding what leads to this variation regulates order effectively use microbes as evidence. This narrative review provides an overview some the main scientific works so far produced, focusing on potentiality using skin microbiome profiling human identification forensics. was performed following Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. examined literature clearly ascertains microbial communities, although personalized, vary systematically across body sites time, intrapersonal differences over time smaller than interpersonal ones, showing such high degree spatial temporal variability nature can constitute itself important parameter useful distinguishing individuals from one another. Even making effort organically synthesize all results achieved until now, it quite evident these are still pieces puzzle, which not yet complete.
