Several bacteria associated with human health are acquired late in childhood — albeit with different developmental dynamics.
Gut bacteria from people in industrialized countries exchange genes at much higher rates than bacteria from people living in non-industrialized societies.

A molecule in breast milk, called betaine, may lower the risk of obesity by preventing accelerated growth in newborns and supporting bacterial species.
Th17 cells and Treg cells, the resident ocular microbiota could potentially trigger and perpetuate inflammation in dry eye disease.
A targeted decontamination could be a strategy to control the spreading of carbapenem-resistance plasmids both amoung patients and within patients.
The manipulation of microbiota could improve the outcomes of infections in the respiratory tract cause by opportunistic pathogens.
Gut microbes contribute to symptoms associated with neurological conditions. New microbe-inspired therapies could be develop to treat such conditions.
Some gut microbial metabolites boost the efficacy of antitumor drugs by regulating the body’s immune response and could be used as a part of cancer therapy.
