Online now: Antibiotic-driven dysbiosis in early life disrupts indole-3-propionic acid production and exacerbates allergic airway inflammation in adulthood dlvr.it/T9csJ3

Microbiome derived indole-3-propionic acid prevents long-lasting mitochondrial damage in airway epithelial cells & hyperresponsiveness to allergen challenge, reducing allergic inflammation in adulthood Immunity Ben Marsland Tomasz Wypych Olaf Perdijk cell.com/immunity/fullt…

🇦🇺 Asthma Breakthrough ▫It’s one of asthma’s biggest causes and can begin in babies, but doctors did not know why – and therefore how to prevent it – until now ▫Sarah Booth #frontpagestoday #Australia Herald Sun 🇦🇺

Viruses, OTT cleanliness, genetics … all these have been linked to a higher chance of having #asthma. Now, @Benjmarsland has led research isolated the molecule IPA: when subjected to antibiotic onslaught, IPA disappears from the airways, taking with it valuable protection

Melbourne researchers have unlocked why children are more likely to develop asthma after early exposure to antibiotics. Professor Ben Marsland speaks to Mike Amor about the research. 7NEWS.com.au #7NEWS

Media coverage continues on research led by Ben Marsland and Olaf Perdijk on #asthma and antibiotic use in infancy, centring on the molecule IPA. youtube.com/watch?v=XJoMGI…

📚 Just published a BCR repertoire sequencing protocol! This is the result of a great collaboration with Prasanti Kotagiri, Rachael Bashford-Rogers and Dr Vanessa Bryant. Thanks to editor Kim Good-Jacobson for the opportunity! link.springer.com/protocol/10.10…

Systems immunology is not only immunology with more data. It is a new way of thinking about immune systems as integrated multiagent systems w particular value for making variable human immune system more interpretable: cell.com/trends/immunol…
