This paper identifies gut bacteria that stereoselectively synthesize neurosteroid isomers using a plant-based medium, achieving high conversion and purity without chiral purification.

This study integrates multi-omics data to show gut microbiota composition and function are linked to sexual differentiation in shortfin eels.

This study identifies Holdemania filiformis as a gut microbe producing isopregnanolone, which reaches the brain via the gut-brain axis, suggesting its potential as a probiotic for mood disorders.

This study identifies Clostridium innocuum as a gut bacterium that inactivates progesterone by converting it to epipregnanolone, leading to decreased serum progesterone and follicular arrest in mice.
