Development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is associated with gut microbiota but not oxysterol synthesis

This study investigates the role of gut microbiota and the EBI2-oxysterol axis in NASH development using a mouse model, finding microbiota differences but no link between the EBI2 axis and microbiota.

Maternal γδ T Cells Shape Offspring Pulmonary Type-2 Immunity In A Microbiota-Dependent Manner

This study shows maternal γδ T cells influence offspring pulmonary type-2 immunity through microbiota-dependent mechanisms, affecting gut-lung axis development and inflammation.

Glycan-Based Shaping Of The Microbiota During Primate Evolution

The paper investigates how loss of GGTA1 function in primates affects host-microbiota interactions, finding that it reduces microbiota pathogenicity through IgA targeting of Gal-expressing bacteria.

Compartmentalization of intestinal bacteria by hepatic ILC3s prevents infections after surgery

The paper shows that intestinal bacteria cause surgical infections and that hepatic ILC3s prevent their translocation, highlighting the role of controlled commensalism in preventing post-surgical infections.

FxR-modulates the gut-vascular barrier by regulating the entry sites for bacterial translocation in experimental cirrhosis

This study shows that FXR agonists reduce bacterial translocation in cirrhosis by stabilizing the gut-vascular barrier and mucus layer.

Antibodies set boundaries limiting microbial metabolite penetration and the resultant mammalian host response

The paper develops a model to distinguish microbial and host metabolites using stable isotope tracing and shows that antibodies limit microbial metabolite penetration into host tissues.
