Gut microbiota primes stroke severity via the AHR in intestinal dendritic cells
Indole-producing Escherichia coli worsens ischemic stroke through the activation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling in dendritic cells. Limiting AHR signaling in DCs promotes gut-derived DC migrat...

I am old. I’ve been through so many waves of hustle culture. Outside of occasional crunch times, the overwork is always unnecessary, performative nonsense that provides cover for some combination of bad ideas, abusive leadership, disorganization, a total lack of strategy etc etc.

Ever wondered how gut microbes control immune responses at extra-intestinal locations? Here #theonlylabever reports how a gut protozoan commensal shapes pulmonary immunity to exacerbate asthma and limit the dissemination of mycobacteria. @cellpress.bsky.social ⬇️(1/x) www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

Today we publish an (in my opinion) important paper in @naturemicrobiol.bsky.social 🍾 showing that gut physiology and environment are factors explaining substantial variations in human gut #microbiome composition and #metabolism🦠 Fantastic work Procházková et al. 👏 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
