Multi-omics analyses of the ulcerative colitis gut microbiome link Bacteroides vulgatus proteases with disease severity

Robert H. Mills et al.

Summary: Multi-omics analysis of faecal samples from patients with ulcerative colitis suggests a connection between Bacteroides vulgatus protease activity and the severity of disease symptoms. Understanding the disruption of host-microbiota interactions in UC is crucial for developing effective treatments. The study demonstrates that the overabundance of B. vulgatus proteases in a subset of UC patients contributes to disease activity. Targeting the protease activity could be a potential strategy for treating UC.

Deep metagenomics examines the oral microbiome during dental caries, revealing novel taxa and co-occurrences with host molecules

Jonathon L. Baker et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the oral microbiome and host cytokines in children with dental caries and healthy dentition, uncovering novel bacterial species and differences in microbial composition and host immune markers between the two groups. The findings expand knowledge on the etiology of dental caries and provide potential therapeutic targets for future research.

Bacteroides vulgatus and Bacteroides dorei predict immune-related adverse events in immune checkpoint blockade treatment of metastatic melanoma

Mykhaylo Usyk et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the predictive value of gut microbiome in identifying immune-related adverse events (irAEs) in patients with advanced melanoma undergoing immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) treatment. Two distinct fecal bacterial community clusters associated with different risks of irAEs were identified, providing valuable insights for personalized care in melanoma patients receiving ICB therapy.

The microbiome and human cancer

Gregory D. Sepich-Poore et al.

Summary: Microbes play significant roles in cancer, and bacteria, viruses, and fungi are believed to be key actors in cancer immunotherapy. Although the number of microbes known to directly cause carcinogenesis is small, further research is needed to understand the causal relationship between microbes and cancer.

Gastrointestinal microbiome and gluten in celiac disease

Xingxing Wu et al.

Summary: Coeliac disease is an autoimmune intestinal disease induced by gluten, and adherence to gluten-free diet is an effective treatment. The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in maintaining health, which is regulated by diet. There is a need for alternative treatments to GFD due to the increasing prevalence of coeliac disease.
