Some artificial sweeteners may alter the microbiota, affect blood glucose control

A recent study suggests that the microbiome changes in response to human consumption of non-nutritive sweetener may induce glycemic changes in consumers in a personalized manner.

Babies acquire multi-drug-resistant bacteria within hours of birth

Antimicrobial resistant bacteria are present in newborns after just a few hours of life and they help to understand the routes of transmission of antibiotic-resistance genes.

Microbial signature may predict a person’s response to statins

The findings of a new research suggest that different responses to statins can be explained by the variation in the human microbiota.

How some gut microbes worsen chronic pain

The findings of a new research illuminate the link between IBS and gut bacteria, and suggest that histamine is a good target for therapies against the condition.

Older siblings may influence a child’s microbiota

The findings of a new research suggest that during the early maturation, the microbiota would be more likely to be influenced by other microbiotas on a not-too-distant level of maturity.

Gut microbes may regulate host physiology by metabolizing vitamin A

The results of a new research done in mice suggest that gut bacteria can regulate host physiology by metabolizing vitamin A.

Specific prebiotics may influence gut microbes in ways that prevent obesity

New research in mice suggests that two MACs, L-arabinose and sucrose, have specific effects on gut microbes that may prevent diet-induced obesity.

How gut bacteria may evolve to become harmful

The findings of a new research show that gut bacteria can become harmful over time by gaining the ability to escape the intestine and persist in other organs where they…

Bacterial signatures in gut and airway may be biomarker for COVID-19 severity

The findings of a new research suggest that changes in the microbial composition of people with COVID-19 could be used as a biomarker of invasion of lung pathogens and dysbiosis…

IgA antibodies bind to specific gut bacteria in mice

The findings of a new research may inform strategies for treating intestinal diseases by targeting pathogens without killing beneficial gut bacteria.
