The Lagos State Ministry of Health has concluded its investigation into the experience of a patient at Randle General Hospital, following a social media report made by Mrs Oshodi on August 31, 2026, concerning her daughter’s treatment at the facility

Microbiome driven modulation of neurotransmitters: implications for neurotransmission and mood disorders

Gut microbiota in obesity management: from microbial clocks to precision microbial therapies

A new study set out to answer a question that has puzzled scientists for years: can the bacteria living in our gut alter the chemistry of the human brain?

Probiotic-fortified functional foods: integrating nutrient delivery and gut health benefits

Researchers from the UF Health Cancer Institute have discovered a small compound produced naturally by gut bacteria that doubles the response to lung cancer immunotherapy treatment in mice and can now be made into a drug for testing in humans. The findings, published in Cell Reports Medicine, could have widespread clinical impact as a combination therapy…

Microbes living in and on the human body number in the tens of trillions, where they set up camp in locations as diverse as the depths of the large intestine, inside the mouth, within the urogenital tract, and even behind the ears. By the early 2000s, scientists had primarily studied the harmful effects of microbes,…

The trillions of microorganisms living in our intestine influence our health, from digestion and metabolism to immunity. Yet scientists still struggle to understand how these microbes shape these important physiological functions because gut microbiomes are extraordinarily complex, redundant, and dynamic. New technologies are therefore essential for advancing microbiome research. Researchers at the University of Vienna…

A new study from the University of Oulu suggests that gut bacteria may send different biological signals in Parkinson’s disease. The findings add to growing evidence that changes in the gut could be linked to Parkinson’s disease and may eventually help researchers identify new underlying mechanisms for the condition.
