Dear Friends,

Our newsletter begins with an article by Paul Enck about how fecal microbiota transfer in Clostridium difficile infections may remain a reminiscent therapy that has its empirical justification, until it is replaced by something equally or more effective. You will then find a post reviewing a new, open access paper by ISAPP that provides robust evidence regarding the specific health benefits of probiotics in humans.

Next comes a mice study that has shown for the first time the direct mechanism used by the gut microbiota via microbial metabolites to defend the host against the well known enteric pathogen Salmonella. Finally, you can read up on a study that contributes to a better understanding of the role of immunoglobulin A (IgA) on gut homeostasis.

Gut microbiota-derived propionate protects mice against Salmonella infection

Gut microbiota-derived propionate protects mice against Salmonella infection


Other than gut microbiota’s well-known functions, which include nutrient metabolism and absorption, xenobiotic and drug metabolism, and immune development, its role in protecting against pathogens has been poorly characterized. Previous research has identified some...

Gut microbiota-IgA interactions may play a critical role in maintaining colonic homeostasis

Gut microbiota-IgA interactions may play a critical role in maintaining colonic homeostasis


The gut microbiota’s composition and activity can be modulated by both environmental and host-derived factors. Among them, the homeostatic functions of immunoglobulin A (IgA) on gastrointestinal commensal bacteria has recently been confirmed in...
