C. symbiosum promotes enteric neuron loss in IBD

C. symbiosum-derived succinate rewires macrophages to sustain IL-1β, thereby activating neuronal NLRP3 & driving neuron loss. Targeting C. symbiosum w/phage endolysin preserves neurons &dampens inflammation

My 2nd PhD paper with @TENS_lab is out !

We show that secondary bile acid; deoxycholic acid, increases synaptic density and regulates enteric neurons activity in vitro, highlighting the relevance of secondary bile acids in the microbiome-ENS axis and gut physiology 🦠⚙️👁️👁️

Examining microbiota's role in digestive disorders at #FNM2024! Michel Neunlist presents on Nov 8 "Defects in the Crosstalk Between #Microbiota and the Intestinal Epithelial Barrier", focusing on digestive disorders in women with chronic pelvic pain. #DigestiveHealth #neurogastro

[Julia Rode, PhD @JuleRode]

With a novel colonic luminal sampling method we showed that faecal samples 💩 are indeed a useful proxy for large intestinal #gutmicrobiota 🦠 & inter>intraindividual differences - something we so far only took for granted.
