The human body is inhabited by billions of symbiotic bacteria, carrying a diversity that is unique to each individual. The microbiota is involved in many mechanisms, including digestion, vitamin sy...
Gilbert C FAURE's insight:

Now, researchers at the Institut Pasteur have succeeded in explaining this phenomenon whilst demonstrating how the microbiota acts on the balance of the immune system.  The new study shows that the presence of microbes specifically blocks the immune cells responsible for triggering allergies. The study is published in Science.

Nosocomial Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) enteritis is rare but can be fatal unless it is detected at an early stage and treated effectively. Dysbiosis of the gut is one of the leading reasons of MRSA enteritis.
