New Paper: A Diversified Dietary Pattern Is Associated With a Balanced Gut Microbial Composition of Faecalibacterium and Escherichia/Shigella in Patients With Crohn’s Disease in Remission

Illustration about the effect of diet on the microbiota

Study the relationships between dietary intake and shifts in microbiota and their metabolites in Crohn’s Disease patients to help define a dietary pattern.

New Paper: CARD 2020: Antibiotic Resistome Surveillance With the Comprehensive Antibiotic Resistance Database

Describe updates and expansions to CARD, the Comprehensive Antibiotic Resistance Database, its biocuration process and resources for community biocuration.

New Paper: Fecal Transplant Prevents Gut Dysbiosis and Anxiety-Like Behaviour After Spinal Cord Injury in Rats

Fig 2. Experimental Timeline. Upon arrival, rats were allowed one week to acclimate to their environment before testing. Prior to injury, baseline measures were obtained in the cylinder test, open field, light-dark box and sucrose preference tests. With the exception of the healthy group, all rats were gavaged with a fecal slurry (FMT: fecal microbiota transplant) or control solution at the time of injury and for 2 days following injury or sham surgery. Stool samples were collected for 16s rRNA sequencing prior to, 3 days and 4 weeks following surgeries. After surgeries, rats were tested weekly on a battery of behavioural tests followed by perfusions (5 weeks following surgeries) and tissue analysis.

A model of anxiety following a cervical contusion spinal cord injury in rats demonstrates fecal transplant prevents gut dysbiosis and anxiety-like behaviour

New Paper: Intestinal Fungi are Causally Implicated in Microbiome Assembly and Immune Development in Mice

Intestinal fungi are causally implicated in microbiome assembly and immune development in mice

Intestinal fungi are causally implicated in microbiome assembly and immune development in mice.

New Paper: Consumption of Artificially Sweetened Beverages During Pregnancy Impacts Infant Gut Microbiota and Body Mass Index

Fig 3. Drivers of gut bacterial beta-diversity and indicator taxa associated with maternal consumption of ASB differ between clusters. (A) Univariate models showing significance and explained variance of 10 variables on bacterial community structure across all data and each cluster subset. Horizontal bars show the amount of variance (R2) explained by each covariate in the model as determined by envfit. Asterisk denotes the significant covariates in each data subset (P

Study finds that artificially sweetened beverages consumption during pregnancy impacts mother’s microbiota and might lead to higher infant BMI.

New Paper: Maternal Distress During Pregnancy and Recurrence in Early Childhood Predicts Atopic Dermatitis and Asthma in Childhood

This population-based study shows sex-specific associations between maternal prenatal and postnatal distress, as well as the development of AD and asthma.
