Common gut microbe shows promise as fatty liver disease treatment
79% Informative
A common gut fungus could lead to new treatments for chronic liver disorders.
Fusarium foetens was found to be the most common fungus to thrive in the gut.
The condition, called severe metabolic-dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease, affects more than 1 in 4 adults worldwide.
The work "holds significant implications for developing clinical therapeutic strategies targeting gut fungi," Jiang said.
Lewis agreed that the "unexpected discovery" raises the idea that scientists could isolate gut microbes that "we never knew existed to fight human diseases" Next, the researchers plan to study the effects of F. foetens in humans.
