flag A study links 15 gut bacteria to heart disease, showing some strains may protect or harm based on context.

flag A new study identifies 15 gut bacterial species linked to coronary artery disease (CAD), revealing that certain microbes, including some Lachnospiraceae strains, may act as either protectors or contributors depending on the strain and gut environment. flag Using metagenomic sequencing on fecal samples from CAD patients and healthy individuals, researchers found functional shifts in the microbiome tied to inflammation and metabolic imbalance, with beneficial bacteria like Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Akkermansia muciniphila showing altered roles in disease states. flag The findings highlight the gut-heart connection and point to potential future prevention strategies, such as microbiome-based screening, dietary interventions, and precision therapies targeting harmful microbial pathways.
