Have a nice weekend! Today, we have several papers, covering different aspects of the microbiome! Some highlights (in bold): the role of microbiota in cancer immunotherapy success; interesting study about the lung microbiota and smoking; changes in gut microbiota in asthma patients, microbiota changes in high-salt feces; an interesting article about the potential effect of dogs in veteran rehabilitation; a review about periodontitis and the microbiome; a ecophylogenetic study about mammalian microbiome, and more!
