This study transplants gut microbiota from Indigenous Yanomami and urban donors into mice to show Yanomami microbiota protects against diet-induced metabolic dysfunction.

The paper compares gut microbiomes of Yanomami populations with varying urban influence and a Belgian urban cohort, finding urban-associated features and shifts in microbial composition and function.

This study shows that Enterocloster citroniae and related gut microbes produce small molecules that inhibit Vibrio cholerae motility and promote biofilm formation, influencing its virulence.

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.

This study evaluates the ecological fidelity of HMA mice in replicating human microbiome responses to a microbial consortium, finding they are more similar to other mice than their human donors.

This study investigates how three Fusobacterium nucleatum strains modulate host cell transcriptomes and epigenomes through RNA-seq and ChIP-seq, revealing inflammation-related gene upregulation and chromatin remodeling during host cell invasion.
