More evidence that stool microbiome testing is not ready for prime time yet!
Results and health assessments from gut microbiome home-testing kits vary whether they are produced by the same or different manufacturers. The findings, published in @CommsBio, highlight the need for caution when interpreting or acting on test results. go.nature.com/4u07EN8
ALT The image contains five plots labelled A to E. A, B, and C are scatter plots comparing '16s' and 'WGS' data across companies for Shannon Diversity, Inverse Simpson, and Genera identified. D and E are beta-diversity plots for Donor5 and the full cohort, respectively, showing MGS data.

Evaluating the analytical performance of direct-to-consumer gut microbiome testing services nature.com/articles/s42003-0… Media accompanying this paper: sciencenews.org/article/resu… talks about a "fecal standard" which sounds interesting.

A NIST study found 7 direct to consumer gut microbiome services gave conflicting results from the same stool sample, with method differences matching or exceeding true biological variation.

🚨 New paper! Mohamed Shoeb @shoeb_mo92 from our team together with Klaus Fortschegger and Sabine Strehl's group @StAnna_CCRI, just out in @CommsBio:
"A stem cell differentiation model reveals two alternative fates in CBFA2T3::GLIS2-driven AMKL"
🔗 doi.org/10.1038/s42003-025-0…
🔬 New in Communications Biology: Researchers from @StAnna_CCRI & @MedUni_Wien developed a stem cell model to study an aggressive pediatric AML subtype (CBFA2T3::GLIS2). Findings reveal 2 ways the oncogene disrupts blood formation:

Research in @CommsBio shows wild chimpanzees observe various tolerant role models, in addition to their mothers, throughout their prolonged development. This likely contributes to the acquisition of diverse technical skills. Read the Behind the Paper blog: spklr.io/60157Om5

An expanded phylogeny reported in @CommsBio explains the evolutionary relationships of the “terror crocodile” Deinosuchus, shedding light on osmoregulation in crocodyliforms and body-size evolution patterns in the group. go.nature.com/3EFuJzO
ALT This is figure 1, which shows the reduced time calibrated strict consensus tree of the maximum parsimony analysis showing the position of Deinosuchus spp., Leidyosuchus canadensis, and Diplocynodon spp. as stem-crocodylians.
