Mice born to mothers exposed to Akkermansia muciniphila during pregnancy showed improvements in stem cell activity.
A study revealed a link between gut microbiota composition and brain development in preterm infants, suggesting that specific bacteria and their metabolites can influence neurodevelopment.
The findings suggest that the microbial communities inhabiting an infant’s nose and throat can play a role in the severity of RSV infections.
Clara Delaroque, from Institut Pasteur (France), emphasizes the critical interplay between early-life microbiota and host health, specifically how the use of common food additives impacts the susceptibility to diseases later…
The findings suggest that the composition of the gut microbiota in early life is not a key factor in obesity risk.
The findings highlight the importance of maintaining a healthy microbiota after EEN and suggest that personalized dietary approaches can help induce remission for children with Crohn’s disease.
The results also indicate that the hospital environment influences the gut bacteria of preterm infants, highligting the importance of managing antibiotics and medications to support a healthy gut development.
The findings highlight the importance of the gut microbiota in gut development and immunity, and they provide insights into how microbiota-based interventions could prevent serious conditions such as NEC.
The results of a recent study suggest that the milk microbiota and maternal genetics affect a child’s susceptibility to asthma and allergies.
The findings confirm that mother’s milk can deliver beneficial bacteria to very-low-birth-weight infants, with feeding practices and antibiotic use influencing this microbial exchange.
