Neuroscience, Pediatrics
The findings of a recent study show that Q-net can accurately predict the long-term trajectories of gut microbes and identify patterns indicative of future cognitive deficits.
Gastroenterology, Pediatrics
The findings of a recent study suggest that the infant gut microbiota begins to develop circadian rhythms soon after birth, with diet having minimal influence on these microbial patterns.
Gastroenterology, Nephrology
The findings of a recent study reveal how gut bacteria modify immune molecules in ways that lead to the development of IgA nephropathy.
Gastroenterology, Nutrition
The findings of a recent study suggest that Ruminococcus bacteria were more prevalent in ancient human populations and non-industrialized societies, likely due to the high dietary fiber intake.
Gastroenterology, Immunology
The findings of a recent study suggest that the infant microbiota produces neurotransmitters that are required for the development of the immune system.
Gastroenterology
The results of a recent study suggest that certain dietary changes can counteract bacterial functions that promote disease. The findings thus underscore the importance of examining microbial functions to understand…
Gastroenterology, Oncology
The findings of a recent study highlight the importance of considering age-related immune changes and gut microbiota composition for developing personalized immunotherapy approaches.
Gastroenterology, Oncology
A recent study demonstrated causation between microbial DCA metabolism and anti-tumor CD8+ T cell response in colorectal cancer.
Cardiology
The findings of a recent study shed light on how the microbiota impacts cholesterol levels. They may also inform microbial-based interventions against high cholesterol.
Oncology
The findings of a recent study suggest that L. johnsonii or its metabolite IPA could be used as a microbial-based approach to improve a person’s response to immunotherapy.
