Common gut bacteria use protein delivery systems to interact directly with human cells, reshaping how scientists view the ...

Are all bacterial cells in a group alike? It doesn't seem so. A population of bacterial cells may be heteroresistant, which is to say that some may be able to evade the effects of antibiotics, while ...

Scientists have uncovered a direct molecular mechanism by which gut bacteria inject proteins into human cells, reshaping immune responses and potentially driving inflammatory disease. Scientists have ...

Biologists have uncovered a new mode of communication inside cells that helps bacterial pathogens learn how to evade drugs.

Bacteria in the human gut can directly deliver proteins into human cells, actively shaping immune responses. A consortium led ...

New CU Boulder research shows that bacteria harness physical laws to operate at the edge of chaos and use calcium to independently diversify and find a place to settle down Let’s talk about the ...

Instead of killing bacteria, scientists found a way to gently guide gut microbes to produce compounds linked to longevity and healthier aging.

In recent years, scientists have begun to reveal the myriad ways that gut microbes can impact our health; they had identified ...
