A growing body of evidence suggests that disruption of the gut microbiome may trigger inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), but we don’t really know how or why.

 Now teams of researchers at the Mayo Clinic and the University of Iowa have discovered that a species of bacteria called Prevotella histicola prevents MS from developing in a preclinical mouse model.

 In the study published in the journal Cell Reports, the teams studied bacterial cultures grown from intestinal biopsies from patients with celiac disease to determine which gut bacteria are capable of controlling immune responses.

 The team isolated three bacterial strains and found that one (P. histicola) had the ability to suppress MS in a preclinical animal model of the disease.

 P. histicola suppresses the disease by controlling the immune system. The researchers discovered that the bacteria decrease the expression of two inflammatory molecules - interferon gamma and interleukin 17, and increase the numbers of immune cells that fight disease (T-cells, dendritic cells and macrophages).

Hello back ~~ Little doodles again, this time about one of my stories, featuring four pop singers - their theme is food and taste, so don’t worry about the strange tattoos o/ Just so you know, Prevotella taste is sweet, Halophila is salt, and Oxylysa is acid ! I should draw the fourth girl soon, or even the whole group at once, so you’d get to know them better ^^

Hello everyone ~~ Inktober time ! I see a lot of friends doing it... So why not trying too ? ~~ I'll try to follow Jake Parker's "official list", and today is... Hungry. Very obvious one today : the pretty Prevotella in casual clothes hungry. I wanted to add something more "knowledge-hungry" related, but I couldn't think of a way to draw that, so I gave up ^^' So... See you tomorrow ? ^^
