Lactobacilli comprise all bacteria previously assigned to the <i>Lactobacillus</i> genus and, similar to other lactic acid bacteria, are characterized by their saccharolytic, fermentation-energy metabolism and diverse enzymatic pathways that support redox balance and maintain intracellular pH. Some lactobacilli are pervasive in dairy, meat and plant foods, where they either contribute to spoilage and food waste or are desired and necessary for the production of fermented foods and animal feed. Strains of lactobacilli are the most applied probiotics tested in clinical studies. The study of host-associated intestinal and vaginal microbiomes has demonstrated that lactobacilli drive epithelial and immune cell responses, resulting in mainly beneficial effects on host health. This Review explores both established and emerging concepts related to this group of microorganisms. It highlights central tenants of their genetic diversity, metabolism, stress tolerance and distribution across host-associated microbiomes, as well as their importance in fermented foods and in health modulation as probiotics. With this accumulated knowledge, there remain substantial opportunities for expanded application of lactobacilli across different domains relevant to food production and health.</p>","PeriodicalId":18838,"journal":{"name":"Nature Reviews Microbiology","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":88.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144684467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Monoclonal neutralizing antibodies can be administered therapeutically to people living with HIV-1 and preventively to those who are uninfected and at risk. Neutralizing antibodies block viral entry into susceptible cells by targeting the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein, which mediates entry by membrane fusion. The envelope glycoprotein evades neutralizing antibody responses by multiple means, including extreme sequence variation and a dense protective glycan shield. Despite these impediments, many broadly active neutralizing human antibodies have been isolated, typically after years of HIV-1 infection. In this Review, we describe how such antibodies target distinct epitope clusters that cumulatively now cover most of the external surface of the envelope glycoprotein. These antibodies vary in potency, in the degree to which they reduce infectivity, in mechanism of action, and in structural basis, affinity and kinetics of binding. Broadly neutralizing antibody responses have, however, so far not been elicited by immunization with envelope glycoproteins. That situation may change though with the rapid advancement of structure-guided immunogen design strategies that engage germline versions of human antibodies and guide their maturation towards greater neutralization potency and breadth. In this Review, Klasse et al. explore the biogenesis and structure of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) and examine its functional role in viral entry. They also discuss how neutralizing antibodies interact with Env, the evolution of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) and strategies to elicit bnAbs through germline-targeting immunogen design.","PeriodicalId":18838,"journal":{"name":"Nature Reviews Microbiology","volume":"23 11","pages":"734-752"},"PeriodicalIF":103.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144684531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
