What if gut microbes make urine yellow? New research in Nature Microbiology sheds light on the role of the gut microbiome in bilirubin metabolism through the gut–liver axis: nature.com/articles/s4156…

Gut microbiota dysbiosis may play a role in ulcerative colitis by causing shifts in metabolomic profiles. This new study describes individual metabolite trends post-fecal microbiota transplantation that could help patients with IBD: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Functional metabolomics of the human scalp reveals a specific metabolic niche of Staphylococcus epidermidis, one of the key players of the human skin microbiome. The study, published in #mSystems, dives deeper into the interpretation of “omics” data. asm.social/1FZ
