Gut microbes play a key role in regulating stress responsiveness throughout the day, research finds

New research from reveals that the gut microbiome regulates the body's diurnal (day-night) rhythms in stress hormones. Depletion of gut microbiota results in disruptions in the brain's core circadian system, and is associated with altered stress hormone rhythms. The research highlights that gut microbes also regulates key stress-responding brain regions throughout the day. Using microbe transplantation, the team confirmed that oscillations of gut microbes across the day are critical for regulating stress hormone secretion. from Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/LRxlp7s

Two key genes identified linking rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis

Researchers employed analysis tools and machine learning algorithms to identify two genes linked to rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis that could serve as diagnostic tools and potential targets for treatments. Drawing from a large database of genetic information, they gathered dozens of sequenced genomes from people with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis to look for any similarities, using recently developed computational methods to narrow down their search. They identified genes ATXN2L and MMP14 as significantly associated with the progression of both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis. from Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/pJuCyr3
