- PMID 42324618 (2026, Gut microbes) — Mapping the metagenomic landscape: combined shotgun sequencing and quantitative PCR to profile gut metagenome-assembled genomes in marmosets following treatment with a broad-spectrum antibiotic cocktail... Broad-spectrum antibiotics are invaluable tools for treating pathogenic infections, but their sustained use can contribute to changes in gut microbiome membership and the emergence of antimicrobial resistance. While these unintended side effects are independently well documented, the relationship between them has seldom been investigated. To address this, we quantified the effe
- PMID 42286862 (2026, Gut microbes) — Diet and microbiome shape small-molecule cytokinin pools in mammals... Cytokinins (CKs) are adenine-derived metabolites traditionally characterized as plant hormones, yet their origin, distribution, and functions in mammalian systems remain largely undefined. Using integrated metabolomics, microbiome, and metagenomics approaches, we provide a systematic characterization of CK occurrence and potential sources in mammals. Serum profiling across five
- PMID 42152463 (2026, Gut microbes) — <i>Limosilactobacillus reuteri</i> promotes melatonin release from human intestinal organoids via 5'ectonucleotidase activity... Strains of <i>Limosilactobacillus reuteri</i> have been used to prevent or treat various conditions; however, the mechanisms by which they exert beneficial effects are not completely understood. Infant colic is one example in which <i>L. reuteri</i> DSM 17938 reduces clinical symptoms. While the etiology of colic is unknown, abnormal melatonin levels in infants have been sugges
- PMID 42026762 (2026, Gut microbes) — Microbial metabolite Enterobactin impairs mitochondrial respiration and alleviates colitis... <h4>Background and aims</h4>Host-microbe interactions critically shape cellular metabolism and immune responses. The bacterial siderophore enterobactin (Ent) is known for pilfering iron from the host, but recent evidence suggests that it may also deliver iron to host mitochondria. Its impact on mitochondrial respiration, however, remains poorly understood. Here, we assess the i
- PMID 41949064 (2026, Gut microbes) — The JNK2-microbiome axis modulates gut barrier integrity through microbial acetate... <h4>Background</h4>Weaning involves a nutritional shift from fat-rich milk to carbohydrate-based solid food, reshaping metabolism, microbiota, and gut immune tolerance. While dairy remains a component of the human diet beyond weaning, the impact of continued milk supplementation on gut epithelial homeostasis remains poorly understood.<h4>Result</h4>Here, using a mouse model, we
- PMID 41904604 (2026, Gut microbes) — Identification and characterization of a lipopolysaccharide binding, anti-inflammatory protein from <i>Parabacteroides distasonis</i>... Gut bacteria are well known to impact a diverse array of acute and chronic diseases. One mechanism by which gut bacteria can impact health is by modulating inflammation. We and others previously found that membrane components of the gram-negative bacterium <i>Parabacteroides distasonis</i> (Pd) can suppress proinflammatory signaling <i>in vitro</i> and reduce intestinal inflamm
