Gut microbes may contribute to autoimmune kidney disease

The findings of a recent study reveal how gut bacteria modify immune molecules in ways that lead to the development of IgA nephropathy.

Industrial societies may be losing gut microbes that help digest plants

The findings of a recent study suggest that Ruminococcus bacteria were more prevalent in ancient human populations and non-industrialized societies, likely due to the high dietary fiber intake.

Gut microbiota may shape a newborn’s immune system through serotonin production

The findings of a recent study suggest that the infant microbiota produces neurotransmitters that are required for the development of the immune system.
