Some gut bacteria may trigger autoimmunity in rheumatoid arthritis

The findings of a recent study suggest that a specific strain of Subdoligranulum can drive the production of autoantibodies in rheumatoid arthritis.

Nicotine-degrading microbes may protect against smoking-related liver disease

Scientists identified a bacterium, Bacteroides xylanisolvens, that reduced gut nicotine concentrations in mice exposed to nicotine as well as the severity of NAFLD.

Some gut bacteria can curb atherosclerosis in mice

A recent study provides evidence for the beneficial effects of GMD and the gut commensal bacterium P. merdae against obesity-related atherosclerosis.

Microbiota-derived ethanol may contribute to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

The findings of a new research suggest that, in some people, microbial ethanol can contribute to the development of NAFLD.

Tumor-microbiota interactions may help to identify new treatments for pancreatic cancer

The findings of a new research may help to develop improved diagnostic or treatment approaches for pancreatic cancer.

How microbiotas interact after fecal transplantation

Researchers found that the microbiota of the recipient, rather than that of the donor, determines the microbial mix resulting from a fecal transplant.

Studies reveal the fungal communities associated with tumors

New studies provide evidence that there may be fungi within tumors and could also help to diagnose certain types of cancer or predicting their course.

Engraftment levels may determine success of microbiota transplant

The findings of a new research could help to optimize fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) protocols and identify the most suitable donors for transplantation.

Recurrent infections and estrogen can shape the urogenital microbiota

New research indicates that recurrent urinary tract infections and estrogen can shape the urogenital microbiota in ways that may protect against recurrent infections.

New study supports link between gut bacteria and multiple sclerosis

The findings of a new research shed light on the mechanisms by which gut bacteria influence the development and progression of multiple sclerosis.
