The need for diversity in vaginal microbiota research

By addressing biases and increasing diversity in microbiota studies, researchers can develop more accurate and inclusive health strategies for women of different backgrounds.

The vaginal microbiome

Understanding the vaginal microbiome is essential not only for treating gynecological conditions but also for preventing them and promoting overall well-being.

A mother’s gut microbes may influence stem cells in the next generation

Mice born to mothers exposed to Akkermansia muciniphila during pregnancy showed improvements in stem cell activity.

The impact of maternal diet and food additives on offspring microbiota and long-term health

Clara Delaroque, from Institut Pasteur (France), emphasizes the critical interplay between early-life microbiota and host health, specifically how the use of common food additives impacts the susceptibility to diseases later…

Microbiome’s implications in recurrent pregnancy loss

A systematic review recently published in the Journal of Reproductive Immunology provides a comprehensive overview of the emerging role of the microbiome in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL).

A mother’s genes may influence infant health through the milk microbiota

The results of a recent study suggest that the milk microbiota and maternal genetics affect a child’s susceptibility to asthma and allergies.

Mother’s milk can shape the gut microbiota of very-low-birth-weight infants

The findings confirm that mother’s milk can deliver beneficial bacteria to very-low-birth-weight infants, with feeding practices and antibiotic use influencing this microbial exchange.

Antibiotic use during C-section has little impact on the infant gut microbiota

The findings suggest that while antibiotics can cause changes to the infant microbiota, they are much less significant than the impact of feeding mode.

Gut microbes may influence the risk of diabetes during pregnancy

The findings of a recent study highlight the critical role of the gut microbiota in maternal and infant health, especially in the context of GDM.

How gut bacteria may impact a woman’s health

The findings of a recent study suggest that gut bacteria transform steroids into hormones that may impact a woman’s health, especially during pregnancy.
