Researchers from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China Publish Findings in Necrotizing Enterocolitis (The emerging role of the gut virome in necrotizing enterocolitis)

2024 MAY 17 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Gastroenterology Daily News -- New study results on necrotizing enterocolitis have been published.

Review Description

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most common gastrointestinal emergency in neonates, particularly preterm infants. Many factors can lead to NEC, but microbial dysbiosis is one of the most important risk factors that can induce this disease. Given the major role of the gut virome in shaping bacterial homeostasis, virome research is a fledgling but rapidly evolving area in the field of microbiome that is increasingly connected to human diseases, including NEC. This review provides an overview of the development of the gut virome in newborns, discusses its emerging role in NEC, and explores promising therapeutic applications, including phage therapy and fecal virome transplantation.
