Neonatal fungi promote lifelong metabolic health through macrophage-dependent β cell development | Science

Loss of early-life microbial diversity is correlated with diabetes, yet mechanisms by which microbes influence disease remain elusive. We report a critical neonatal window in mice when microbiota disruption results in lifelong metabolic consequences … Loss of early-life microbial diversity is correlated with diabetes, yet mechanisms by which microbes influence disease remain elusive.
