microbiomeMarker: an R/Bioconductor package for microbiome marker identification and visualization
SUMMARY Characterizing biomarkers based on microbiome profiles has great potential for translational medicine and precision medicine. Here, we present microbiomeMarker, an R/Bioconductor package implementing commonly used normalization and differential ...

Discordant transmission of bacteria and viruses from mothers to babies at birth [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The earliest microbial colonizers of the human gut can have life-long consequences for their hosts. Precisely how the neonatal gut bacterial microbiome and virome are initially populated is not well understood.

A high-fat (HF) diet reduces resistance to the foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. We demonstrate that short-term gavage with A. muciniphila increases resistance to oral and systemic L. monocytogenes infection in mice fed a HF diet. A. muciniphila

Alpha-synuclein alters the faecal viromes of rats in a gut-initiated model of Parkinson’s disease
Stockdale et al. assess longitudinal faecal virome changes in a rat model of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) in which either monomeric or preformed fibrils (PFF) of α-synuclein were administered directly into their enteric nervous system.

Diet rapidly and reproducibly alters the human gut microbiome
Long-term dietary intake influences the structure and activity of the trillions of microorganisms residing in the human gut, but it remains unclear how rapidly and reproducibly the human gut microbiome responds to short-term macronutrient change. Here we
