Good Bacteria Can Cause Changes in Your Genes
Publicado em 11 janeiro 2018Scientists from the Babraham Institute near Cambridge in collaboration with colleagues from Brazil and Italy have discovered a way that good bacteria in the gut can control genes in our cells. The work, published in Nature Communications, shows that chemical messages from bacteria can change the location of key chemical markers throughout the human genome. By communicating in this way, the bacteria may help to fight infections and to prevent cancer. This work, led by Dr Patrick Varga-Weisz [...]ver notícia
