Scientific research
A new study assessed that transplantation of human microbiota into mice durably reshapes the gut microbial community.
Neuroscience
A japanese team identified bacterial populations that may determine intestinal pathology and influence the development of Parkinson's disease.
Immunology
A study published in Nature revealed that immune-regulating bacteria are lost when transplanting microbiota from humans to laboratory mice and that the established human microbiota results in a weak stimulation…
Scientific research
Researchers at North Carolina State University have underlined the evolutionary interplay between microbiomes development and human social structures.
Gynecology
