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.

High levels of antibodies against specific gut bacteria may be linked to chronic fatigue

The findings of a new research suggest that combining Lachnospiraceae antibody screening with blood tests could improve the diagnosis of ME/CFS.

High-sugar diet could disrupt microbiota, increase odds of obesity and diabetes

The findings of a new study suggest that the interplay between diet, microbiota and intestinal immunity regulates obesity, diabetes and other metabolic conditions.

Microbial metabolite could boost efficacy of immunotherapy in pancreatic cancer

A gut microbial metabolite called trimethylamine N-oxide, or TMAO, could improve immunotherapy success in pancreatic cancer.

Altered gut microbiota linked with poorer survival after organ transplant

The findings of a new research suggest that microbiota-based therapies can help improve clinical outcomes after organ transplants.
