The understanding that changes in microbiome composition can influence chronic human
diseases and the efficiency of therapies has driven efforts to develop microbiota-centred …

The human microbiome is a complex and dynamic system that plays important roles in
human health and disease. However, there remain limitations and theoretical gaps in our …

Increased hygiene and sanitation are theorized to predispose to developing atopic
diseases, a process potentially mediated by the gut microbiome. We hypothesized that the …

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are prevalent in the infant gut microbiota and make up
the intestinal resistome, representing a community ARG reservoir. This study focuses on the …

Human gut microbiomes (microbiotas) are highly individualistic in taxonomic composition
but nevertheless are functionally similar. Thus, collectively, they comprise a …

Weaning, the transition from a milk-based diet to solid food, coincides with the most
significant shift in gut microbiome composition in the lifetime of most mammals. Notably, this …

This study aimed to preliminarily explore the composition and diversity of intestinal bacteria
in Erinaceus amurensis during breeding period, aiding in the field rescue and population …

Coexisting strains of the same species within the human microbiota pose a substantial
challenge to inferring the host-to-host transmission of both pathogenic and commensal …

How infants acquire their gut microbial communities and the various factors influencing
these dynamics remain unclear. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Selma-Royo et al. and …

Aim: This study aims to explore the interplay between host immune factors and gut
microbiota in human infants in vivo using time-series daily stool samples and identify …
