Editor’s Note: The gut-brain axis—an imaginary line between the brain and the gut—is one of the new frontiers of neuroscience. Microbiota in our gut, sometimes referred to as the “second genome” or the “second brain,” may influence our mood in ways that scientists are just now beginning to understand.

Plaques of beta-amyloid and tangles of “tau” protein can lead to AD. Recently evidence has found that AD may come from outside of central nerv...
متن کاملGut Reaction: Pyrosequencing Provides the Poop on Distal Gut Bacteria
The human distal gut hosts a bustling community comprising thousands of different kinds of bacteria. Fortunately, most of these intestinal residents don’t cause disease but instead play key roles in nutrition, metabolism, pathogen resistance, and immune response regulation. Unfortunately, these beneficial bacteria are just as susceptible to the antibiotics we take to treat pathogenic bacteria. ...
