Gut bacterium Akkermansia muciniphila uses vesicles to outcompete rival subtypes

In Nature Communications the Korea Food Research Institute (KFRI) has released results on the growth regulation mechanisms of core human gut microbiota. The growth regulation mechanisms among microbial groups of Akkermansia muciniphila, a top candidate for microbiome-based therapeutics, have been elucidated.
