Strain-level differences in gut microbiome composition determine fecal IgA levels and are modifiable by gut microbiota manipulation
2019-02-13
Abstract excerpt
Fecal IgA production depends on colonization by a gut microbiota. However, the bacterial strains that drive gut IgA production remain largely unknown. By accessing the IgA-inducing capacity of a diverse set of human gut microbial strains, we identified Bacteroides ovatus as the species that best induced gut IgA production. However, this induction varied biomodally across different B. ovatus strains. The high IgA...
