The Nexus of Gut Microbiome, Microbial Metabolites, and Colonization Resistance Against Enteric Pathogens
The gut microbiome is a complex ecological system crucial to human physiology. Commensal microbes in the gut provide resistance against pathogenic colonization, mainly due to their metabolites. Though studies have revealed a few mechanisms of microbial metabolite-mediated colonization resistance, various commensal micr...
