New research has found that there is a common, overlapping environment in the gut bacteria of people living with mental illnesses like depression, bipolar disorder and anxiety. The research, published today inJAMA Psychiatry, found that people experiencing these illnesses are more likely to have gut...
Lactobacillus acidophilus, or L. acidophilus, is a species of probiotic bacteria found naturally in the human gut. It is commonly used to improve digestive health, treat diarrhea, and prevent vaginal infections. L. acidophilus can also help boost the immune system and lower cholesterol levels. B....
“It’s been known that the microbiome – the bacteria in our gut – can break down tryptophan into byproducts. Some of those byproducts are anti-inflammatory, but we’ve also associated some inflammatory causes of those products,” Kuhn says. “We’re the first to highlight which products...
in the treatment of these diseases.Gut microbiota may affect distant organs through mechanisms that include regulating the absorption of nutrients and/or the production of microbial metabolites,regulating and interacting with the systemic immune system,and translocating bacteria/bacterial products through ...
Probiotic yogurts and pills promise better health, but the bacteria we ingest find a complex and challenging environment when they enter our gut. Food sources shift with every meal we eat, and the threat of pathogens is ever-present. In this competitive

2013 Dec; 25(4): 226-229 The Most Common Detected Bacteria in Sputum of Patients with the Acute Exacerbation of COPD centrations in their lower airways during exacerbations (16, 17, 18). However, a significant proportion of these patients also have bacteria colonizing their lower airways in ...
C The proportion of wHecCI infection and wHecCI + wHecFem double infection are shown in pie charts Full size image The endosymbiont Wolbachia represents one of the most abundant bacteria present in butterflies [32]. There are at least four major subgroups/strains of Wolbachia (A–D), ...
A number of case-control studies have demonstrated different degrees of gut microbiota alterations in patients with MS, regardless of ethnicity or disease duration [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17]. These include depletion or enrichment of specific bacteria at different taxonomical...
Common medications can accumulate in gut bacteria, a new study has found, altering bacterial function and potentially reducing the effectiveness of the drug. These interactions—seen for a variety of medications, such as depression, diabetes, and asthma drugs—could help researchers to better understan...
