Grant Activity:
Understanding the influence of maternal diet on the neonatal gut microbiome and susceptibility to respiratory disease in early life
Purpose:

Respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis kills up to 200,000 infants every year, and increases the risk of asthma. In an Argentinian cohort it was found that poor maternal diet predisposes to severe bronchiolitis. Replicating this in mice, we have linked this finding to alterations in the gut microbiome and key immune cell populations. Here, we will use clinical samples and our mouse model to identify new microbial-derived molecules that drive immune development and protect against disease.
