Medical visits may rapidly reshape the microbiota of remote communities

The results may inform programs to preserve microbial diversity while delivering essential care.

Gut bacteria metabolite may help breast cancer to grow

Targeting deoxycholic acid (DCA)-producing gut bacteria could be a way to slow breast cancer progression.

Gut worms in mother mice linked to stronger antiviral defenses in pups

Microbiota-derived molecules such as IPA may offer a way to strengthen early-life immunity against respiratory viruses.

Autoimmune syndrome may be tied to changes in gut bacteria, fungi, and viruses

Monitoring the gut microbiota could in the future help understand, diagnose, or manage Sjögren syndrome.

Microbes fine-tune their protein production to make communities more efficient

Microbial communities may be engineered at the protein-expression level because bacteria adjust their protein production in response to specific neighbors.

Specific gut microbe makes sepsis deadlier in mice

Sangeribacter muris KT1-3 made sepsis deadlier by amplifying inflammation driven by TLR4.

Health has a source. You were never told

If the soil microbiome is the first link in a chain that terminates in human health, then agricultural policy is health policy.

AI-based donor-matching tool may boost fecal transplant success rates

MOZAIC, an AI model designed to compare donor and recipients microbiotas, predicted the microbiota convergence after FMT with an accuracy of about 80%.

Bacterial metabolite may link irritable bowel syndrome to mood disorders

The findings highlight TnAse producing gut microbiota, indole, and AhR as promising therapeutic targets for IBS-associated affective disturbances.

Vaginal microbiota compound linked to better development after C-section in mice

Restoring missing maternal microbes after C-section birth could be a new strategy to support early neurodevelopment.
