The findings of a recent study suggest that metformin regulates glucose metabolism by altering specific gut bacteria rather than by causing a general increase in microbial diversity.
Gastroenterology
The work, published in Nature, found a link between the gut, its microbiota and reproductive cells in mice.
Gastroenterology, Nutrition
The findings of a recent study suggest that Desulfovibrio can drive cancer progression, paving the way for therapeutic approached that targeting the gut microbiota.
Gastroenterology, Pediatrics
The authors advocate for further research on worm-microbiota interactions, suggesting that new animal models could help inform strategies for improving health during early life.
Dermatology, Scientific research
The findings of a recent study may help clinicians to select more targeted antimicrobials based on where on the body the surgery is taking place or which type of bacteria…
Oncology
The findings uncover a link between vitamin D, the immune system and gut bacteria, and they suggest that vitamin D levels could be important for cancer immunity and the efficacy…
Neuroscience, Pediatrics
The findings of a recent study show that Q-net can accurately predict the long-term trajectories of gut microbes and identify patterns indicative of future cognitive deficits.
Gastroenterology, Pediatrics
The findings of a recent study suggest that the infant gut microbiota begins to develop circadian rhythms soon after birth, with diet having minimal influence on these microbial patterns.
Gastroenterology, Nephrology
The findings of a recent study reveal how gut bacteria modify immune molecules in ways that lead to the development of IgA nephropathy.
Gastroenterology, Nutrition
The findings of a recent study suggest that Ruminococcus bacteria were more prevalent in ancient human populations and non-industrialized societies, likely due to the high dietary fiber intake.
