Researchers at UCC Ireland reviewed current knowledge on the microbiota-gut-brain relationship. Their work is published in Cell Metabolism.
A new study published in Cell Reports suggests that a common gut microbe could slow—and even reverse—the build-up of a protein associated with Parkinson's.
A study reviewed the evidences that link the microbiota with social behaviors, analyzing how the microbiota-gut-brain axis influences sociability.
A study published in Nature suggests that the gut microbiota could help understand conditions such as chronic anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Our gut microbiota might affect how well and for how long we sleep, according to a new study. The findings may lead to new ways to improve sleep.
A study published in Science shows that the gut microbiota influences daily rhythms through a mechanism by which gut microbes control host metabolism.
John Cryan at the UCC Ireland and his colleagues reviewed the current knowledge of the influence that gut bacteria have on brain and behavior.
A new study, published in Nature, shows a functional link between the gut microbiota and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ASL).
Scientists at KU Leuven summarized existing data on how SCFAs regulate the gut–brain axis, including the impact on the immune, endocrine and neural systems.
Specific gut bacteria break down levodopa, which is used to treat Parkinson’s. This could lead to the development of new levodopa therapies.
