Antibiotics are a double-edged sword—they should be as toxic as possible to pathogenic bacteria while being harmless to the cells of the human body. An international research team led by the Helmholtz ...
Lignin is abundant and full of valuable carbons, but microbes struggle to digest it efficiently because of its complex structure and high energy cost. For years, scientists have marveled at bacteria’s ...
A recent study has made significant strides in uncovering how the oral microbiome, particularly the bacterium Fusobacterium nucleatum, plays a crucial role in the progression of oral squamous cell ...
These high-performance liquid chromatography plots depict how the co-culture of tobacco plant cells with the typically harmless bacterial strain BR1R-2 activates new metabolic pathways. New peaks on ...
New study shows how bacteria juggle energy needs while digesting complex carbons. For years, scientists have marveled at bacteria’s ability to digest the seemingly indigestible, including carbon from ...
Uric acid builds up in the blood when the body cannot excrete it efficiently, leading to painful gout attacks, kidney stones, and other complications. Current treatments often rely on drugs that block ...
New research identified gut microbiota and metabolite biomarkers linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary heart ...
Researchers found that beneficial gut bacteria and ocean microbes use nearly identical molecular systems to break down ...

Scientists just traced the toxic sugar trail gut bacteria leave behind in ALS patients — and cleaning it up reversed the disease in mice
A sugar molecule churned out by gut bacteria may be one of the missing triggers behind ALS, and eliminating it in mice ...
