Abstract

Viruses of the gastrointestinal tract appear to be an integral component of the broader gut microbiome, providing “many of the same signals to the host that are attributed to commensal bacteria,” notes Ken Cadwell of New York University School of Medicine in New York, N.Y. The “recent surge in microbiome research” should be doing more to explore these viral influences, he says. Details appeared 10 December 2014 in the Journal of Virology (doi:10.1128/JVI.02966-14).
