Gut microbes can adapt to long-term antibiotic use

The findings of a recent study suggest that antimicrobial-resistance mutations in commensal bacteria can make the microbiota surprisingly resilient to antibiotics.

Antibiotics alter the gut microbiota in ways that disrupt responses to immunotherapy

The findings of a recent study suggest that antibiotics should be prescribed with caution in cancer patients who are planning to receive PD-1 inhibitors.

Mice study hints at how gut microbes may protect from childhood obesity

The findings of a recent study suggest that the microbiota-derived metabolite phenyllactic acid can prevent antibiotic-associated obesity in early life.

Microbial consortia may help fight intestinal infections

The findings of a recent study suggest that microbial consortia such as MET-2 may be effective strategies to keep intestinal pathogens and antibiotic-resistant organisms at bay.

How do antibiotics influence the microbiota’s impacts on immunotherapy?

Understanding how antibiotics influence the microbiota’s impacts on immunotherapy may inform strategies to identify cancer patients that are more likely to respond to cancer treatment.

How the human microbiota may help treat tough infections

Microbiota-based approaches could help researchers expand the therapeutic toolkit for fighting antibiotic resistance and treating tough infections.

Antibiotics may alter gut microbes in ways that hinder cancer immunotherapy

The findings of a recent study suggest that targeting the interactions between MAdCAM-1 and specific receptors on the surface of immune cells may help to improve immunotherapy outcomes.

Antibiotics alter the gut microbiota, raise risk of blood infections in preterm babies

The findings of a recent study may help to develop diagnostic or therapeutic approaches to reduce bacterial bloodstream infections in newborns.
