Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine, the University of Michigan, and collaborating institutions working with animal models of graft-versus-host disease reported in Immunity that alterations in the gut microbiome are connected to an increase in the oxygen levels in the intestine that follows immune-mediated intestinal damage. Pharmacologically reducing intestinal oxygen levels alleviated the microbial imbalance and reduced the severity of the intestinal disease.
