Deciphering Human Microbiota–Host Chemical Interactions

Abstract excerpt

Our gut harbors more microbes than any other body site, and accumulating evidence suggests that these organisms have a sizable impact on human health. Though efforts to classify the metabolic activities that define this microbial community have transformed the way we think about health and disease, our knowledge of gut microbially produced small molecules and their effects on host biology remains in its infancy....
