Background: The intestinal microbiota regulates normal brain physiology and the pathogenesis of several neurological disorders. While prior studies suggested that this regulation operates through immune cells, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Leveraging two well characterized murine models of low-grade glioma (LGG) occurring in the setting of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) cancer predisposition syndrome, we sought to determine the impact of the gut microbiome on optic glioma progression.

In this study, we investigated the influence of host genetics and environmental microbiomes on the early gut microbiome of Atlantic salmon. We aimed at rearing the fish in either r- or K-selected environments, where the r-selected environment would be expected to be dominated by fast-growing opportunistic bacteria and thus represent more detrimental microbial environment than the K-selected water. Eggs from both wild and aquaculture strains of Atlantic salmon were hatched under germ-free conditions.

The initiation and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) are intimately associated with genetic, environmental and biological factors. (DSV), a sulfate-reducing bacterium, has been found excessive growth in CRC patients, suggesting a potential role in carcinogenesis. However, the precise mechanisms underlying this association remain incompletely understood.

Recent evidence suggests that the gut microbiota can influence pain sensitivity, highlighting the potential for microbiota-targeted pain interventions. During early life, both the microbiota and nociceptors are fine-tuned and respond to environmental factors, however, little is known about how they interact with each other. Using germ-free and gnotobiotic models, we demonstrate that microbiota colonization controls nociceptor sensitivity, partly by modulating mast cell production of nerve growth factor (NGF).

Plants have evolved the ability to regrow after mechanical defoliation and environmental stresses. However, it is unclear whether and how defoliated plants exploit beneficial microbiota from the soil to promote aboveground regrowth. Here, we compared the defoliation-triggered changes in the root exudation and bacterial microbiome of two rice cultivars ( L .
