Maternal fecal transplant may help restore gut microbiota in newborns with diabetes risk
Newborns at risk for Type 1 diabetes because they were given antibiotics may have their gut microorganisms restored with a maternal fecal transplant, according to a Rutgers study.
The study, which involved genetic analysis of mice, appears in the journal
Cell Host & Microbe.
The findings suggest that newborns at risk for Type 1 diabetes because their microbiome – the trillions of beneficial microorganisms in and on our bodies – were disturbed can have the condition reversed by transplanting fecal microbiota from their mother into their gastrointestinal tract after the antibiotic course has been completed.
