Anna Hirsch has now taken a closer look at a less obvious difference between bacteria and humans that has not yet been pharmaceutically exploited: the so-called methylerythritol phosphate pathway ...

A new study published in Biochemistry sheds light on how bacteria regulate their genes, challenging long-held assumptions ...

The new molecules target a metabolic pathway that only occurs in bacterial cells, thus sparing human cells. The team published its results in the journal Angewandte Chemie International Edition.

Using a new method to study how carbohydrates modify proteins, scientists have discovered that gut bacteria can alter molecular signatures in the brain.

Gum disease, or periodontitis, has been linked to poorer cognitive function. Researchers believe this connection may be due ...

A recent study in an animal model provides direct evidence for the role of the vagus nerve in gut microbiome-brain ...

Scientists uncover a surprising link between mouth bacteria and brain health, revealing how your mouth may influence ...

The most extensively studied of the microbes involved in colonic sulfur metabolism are the sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), which are common colonic inhabitants. Many other microbial pathways are ...
