Diet-derived Microbial Metabolites Modulate Stress-Responsive Gene Expression in Germ-free Zebrafish

Jayson Dale R. Capistrano, Bianka Ketheeswaranathan, Matthew Horn…·Terence J. Van Raay

The paper assesses how diet-derived microbial metabolites affect stress-responsive gene expression in germ-free zebrafish, finding that metabolites mitigate stress-induced bdnf expression.

Variant calling for cpn60 barcode sequence-based microbiome profiling

Sarah J. Vancuren, Scott J Dos Santos, Janet E. Hill, the Maternal Microbiome Legacy Project Team

This study evaluates variant calling for cpn60 barcode sequences in microbiome profiling, finding that 150 bp from the 5' end provides species-level resolution without needing reference data.
