Neonatal fungi promote lifelong metabolic health through macrophage-dependent β cell development
6 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
Loss of early-life microbial diversity is correlated with diabetes, yet mechanisms by which microbes influence disease remain elusive. We report a critical neonatal window in mice when microbiota disruption results in lifelong metabolic consequences stemming from reduced β cell development. We show evidence for the existence of a similar program in humans and identify specific fungi and bacteria that are...
