NEW PAPER
Our latest paper, in collaboration with Dr Dawn Bowdish and colleagues, is now published in the Journal Cell Host and Microbe. This exciting study demonstrates in mouse models that aging-associated microbiota promote inflammation, and that reversing these age-related microbiota changes represents a potential strategy for reducing age-associated inflammation and the accompanying morbidity and lung infection. Furthermore, age-associated microbiota changes can be reversed by reducing TNF using anti-TNF therapy.
