The findings of a recent study suggest a potential role of gut microbiota and microbial metabolites in the link between sugar-sweetened beverages intake and diabetes risk.
Scientific research
A new database of thousands of gut microbiota samples from across the word highlights the need for more diverse microbiota research across the globe.
Gynecology
Certain features of the vaginal microbiota, including specific bacterial communities, could indicate an increased Chlamydia infection risk.
Gastroenterology, Nutrition
Researchers have developed a new approach to restore the gut microbiota by combining a high-fiber, plant-based diet with supplementation of beneficial microbes such as Limosilactobacillus reuteri.
Oncology
The microbiota plays a protective role against colorectal cancer by regulating Snhg9.
Gastroenterology, Scientific research
By suggesting that BA–MCYs can regulate the production of bile acids, the findings of a recent study offer insights for treating metabolic conditions such as diabetes.
Dermatology
Specific microbial metabolites can lead to new therapies for skin barrier disorders such as eczema and psoriasis.
Scientific research
Chemical biology offers useful methods to study microbial systems and gather molecular information about microbiomes.
Oncology
Probiotics such as Lactobacillus can complement breast cancer therapy to improve prevention and treatment.
Gastroenterology
High levels of bile acids drive bacterial colonization of the gut and exacerbate gut inflammation by altering the intestinal environment.
