Neuroscience
The findings may inform strategies to modulate the gut microbiota as a way to prevent or treat neurodegeneration.
Oncology
Vaccines against F. nucleatum and other onco-microbes may help prevent diseases such as colorectal cancer.
Gastroenterology, Scientific research
The findings of a recent study suggest that the availability of iron can reshape the composition of the gut microbiota in irreversible ways.
Neuroscience
The findings of a recent study suggest that the microbiota can promote neuronal repair after tissue damage.
Endocrinology, Gastroenterology
The findings of a recent study may inform dietary interventions to help protect people against type 1 diabetes and other autoimmune diseases.
Gastroenterology
The findings of a recent study advance our understanding of bacterial dysbiosis in Crohn’s disease and may inform new therapeutic strategies.
Gynecology, Oncology
The findings of a recent study tie the gut microbiota to immune surveillance of ovarian cancer and may inform new treatment approaches.
Pediatrics
A mother’s microbiota may shape the infant gut microbiota through horizontal gene transfer, in addition to the classical transmission of maternal bacteria to the infant’s gut.
Gastroenterology, Neuroscience
The findings of a recent study suggest that signals derived from the gut can boost the motivation to exercise.
Gastroenterology, Neuroscience
A recent study suggests that the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier is another barrier along the gut-brain axis that is likely influenced by the gut microbiota.
