Microbiota signature may predict severe outcome of SARS-CoV-2 infection

The findings of a recent study suggest that, during SARS-CoV-2 infection, some bacteria in the upper airways’ microbiota may be associated with a person’s disease progression to intubation.

Commensal microbes modulate skin immunity against bacteria causing Lyme disease

The findings of a recent stydy suggest that the skin microbiota triggers a rapid immune response of resident skin cells at the onset of Borrelia infection.

Mice study hints at how gut microbes may protect from childhood obesity

The findings of a recent study suggest that the microbiota-derived metabolite phenyllactic acid can prevent antibiotic-associated obesity in early life.

A mother’s microbiota influences placental growth, mouse study shows

The findings of a recent study suggest that a mother’s gut microbiota influences fetal health by promoting placental growth and vascularization.

Alterations in the gut microbiota may drive binge eating, mice study suggests

The findings of a recent study suggest that the interplay between the microbiota, the gut and the brain drives binge-eating disorders.

Study reveals the microbiota of people with genetic immune deficiency

A recent study analyzed microbial colonization in people with RAG deficiency to shed light on the effects of secondary immunodeficiencies.

Mixture of milk sugars and live bacteria may restore damaged gut microbiotas

The findings of a recent study suggest that a mixture of B. infantis and HMOs can modulate the gut microbiota in adults.

Dietary intervention may change the microbiota, alleviate fatty liver disease

The findings of a recent study suggest that resistant-starch supplements can alter the gut microbiota in ways that alleviate NAFLD.

Socio-economic adversities are associated with gut microbiota alterations

Microbial differences may help to identify targets that could be modulated to mitigate health inequities.

How sugar changes the metabolism of cavity-causing bacteria

The findings suggest that lysine lactylation contributes to metabolic regulation in bacteria and that GNAT13 may limit sucrose-driven biofilm formation.
