Birth mode and location influence the infant gut microbiota

The findings of a recent study suggest that environmental factors are important for the development of a healthy microbiota.

The role of gut microbes in aging

Understanding how gut microbes influence biological processes related to aging may inform interventions aimed at optimizing the microbiota to promote longevity.

Fiber-rich diet and specific gut microbes may alleviate alcohol-induced liver injury

The findings of a recent study suggest that combining dietary fiber with B. acidifaciens can be a therapeutic strategy for alcoholic liver disease.

Artificial intelligence reveals a treasure trove of antimicrobial molecules

The findings suggest that artificial intelligence can help uncover new antibiotics, opening the way for new approaches to antibiotic discovery. The work also offers an open-access resource for antibiotic developers.

New antibiotic kills harmful bacteria while sparing the gut microbiota

The findings of a recent study may inform the development of antibiotics that kill harmful bacteria and not beneficial ones.

Study identifies gut microbiota differences in polycystic ovary syndrome

The findings of a recent study suggest that the gut microbiota of women with PCOS and dyslipidemia differs from that of women with PCOS only and healthy women.

A specific strain of gut bacteria boosts cancer therapy in mice

The findings of a recent study suggest that the combination of anti-PD-1 immunotherapy with a lack of TREM2 generates a gut environment that promotes inflammation, which improves tumor rejection.

How gut bacteria may impact a woman’s health

The findings of a recent study suggest that gut bacteria transform steroids into hormones that may impact a woman’s health, especially during pregnancy.

Small study reveals metformin-induced changes in the gut microbiota of diabetes patients

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.

A father’s gut microbes affect the next generation’s health and lifespan

The work, published in Nature, found a link between the gut, its microbiota and reproductive cells in mice.
