Journal ArticleDOI
Human gut microbiome viewed across age and geography
Tanya Yatsunenko,Federico E. Rey,Mark J. Manary,Mark J. Manary,Indi Trehan,Indi Trehan,Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello,Monica Contreras,Magda Magris,Glida Hidalgo,Robert N. Baldassano,Andrey P. Anokhin,Andrew C. Heath,Barbara B. Warner,Jens Reeder,Justin Kuczynski,J. Gregory Caporaso,Catherine A. Lozupone,Christian L. Lauber,Jose C. Clemente,Dan Knights,Rob Knight,Jeffrey I. Gordon +22 more
TL;DR: The need to consider the microbiome when evaluating human development, nutritional needs, physiological variations and the impact of westernization is underscored, as distinctive features of the functional maturation of the gut microbiome are evident in early infancy as well as adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delivery mode shapes the acquisition and structure of the initial microbiota across multiple body habitats in newborns
Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello,Elizabeth K. Costello,Elizabeth K. Costello,Monica Contreras,Magda Magris,Glida Hidalgo,Noah Fierer,Rob Knight +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that in direct contrast to the highly differentiated communities of their mothers, neonates harbored bacterial communities that were undifferentiated across multiple body habitats, regardless of delivery mode.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotics, birth mode, and diet shape microbiome maturation during early life
Nicholas A. Bokulich,Jennifer Chung,Thomas Battaglia,Nora Henderson,Melanie Jay,Huilin Li,Arnon D. Lieber,Fen Wu,Guillermo I. Perez-Perez,Yu Chen,William Schweizer,Xuhui Zheng,Monica Contreras,Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello,Martin J. Blaser,Martin J. Blaser +15 more
TL;DR: It is shown that antibiotics, cesarean section, and infant formula alter patterns of microbial acquisition and succession during the first 2 years of childhood, which illustrates the complexity of early-life microbiome development and its sensitivity to perturbation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Partial restoration of the microbiota of cesarean-born infants via vaginal microbial transfer
Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello,Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello,Kassandra M. De Jesús-Laboy,Nan Shen,Laura M. Cox,Amnon Amir,Antonio Gonzalez,Nicholas A. Bokulich,Se Jin Song,Se Jin Song,Marina Hoashi,Juana I Rivera-Viñas,Keimari Mendez,Rob Knight,Jose C. Clemente +14 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that vaginal microbes can be partially restored at birth in C-section–delivered babies.
Journal ArticleDOI
The infant microbiome development: mom matters
Noel T. Mueller,Elizabeth Bakacs,Joan Combellick,Zoya Grigoryan,Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello +4 more
TL;DR: Recent knowledge about the impacts on infant microbiome assembly is reviewed, preventive and restorative strategies to ameliorate the effects of these impacts are discussed, and where research is needed to advance this field and improve the health of future generations are highlighted.
