A South Korean study suggests that the oral microbiome may contain signals associated with gastric and colorectal cancer, opening the door to less invasive detection methods, although more research is needed before applying them in clinical screening. (translated)
A study by the Mediterranean Institute of Advanced Studies reveals that the invasive algae Caulerpa cylindracea and Lophocladia trichoclados reduce the growth of new posidonia plants by between 40% and 50%, affecting both their visible development and the microbiome of their roots, which complicates the regeneration of these essential meadows in the Mediterranean Sea.

A study reveals that a bacterial imbalance in male semen is associated with lower chances of pregnancy and a higher risk of miscarriage, highlighting the importance of the reproductive microbiome in the couple's fertility. (translated)
Human aging is a complex process influenced by multiple biological factors, such as genomic instability and mitochondrial dysfunction, which can be mitigated through lifestyle changes, and recent studies have expanded the list of aging markers to include aspects such as autophagy and microbiome alteration.

Investigadores han identificado un patrón microbiano en el microbioma intestinal asociado con el cáncer colorrectal, basado en un análisis exhaustivo de casi 6,800 muestras, lo que sugiere que una dieta baja en fibra podría favorecer la aparición de este microbioma relacionado con la enfermedad. #MicrobiomaIntestinal #CáncerDeColon #InvestigaciónCientífica
Uno studio dell'Università di Maastricht ha dimostrato che l'integrazione quotidiana con il batterio Akkermansia muciniphila può aiutare le persone in sovrappeso o obese a mantenere il peso perso dopo una dieta, riducendo significativamente il recupero di chili rispetto a un gruppo placebo e migliorando la sensibilità all'insulina senza effetti collaterali gravi. #Akkermansia #obesità #microbioma
Nový výzkum ukazuje, že Ötzi, nejstarší známá mumie na světě, obsahuje živé mikroorganismy staré více než 5 000 let, což svědčí o dynamickém ekosystému, ve kterém se střetávají starodávné střevní bakterie s moderními kvasinkami, které zůstávají aktivní i při teplotách pod nulou. #Ötzi #Microbioma #Bactérias
Un estudio reciente ha revelado que la momia de Ötzi, el hombre de hielo, no estaba sola, ya que ha permanecido acompañada por un complejo ecosistema de microorganismos, incluyendo bacterias de su flora intestinal y levaduras adaptadas al frío, que han sobrevivido durante más de 5.000 años. #Ötzi #microbioma #microorganismos
