Dr Yan Shao, from the Wellcome Sanger Institute, said: “By analysing the high-resolution genomic information from over 1,200 babies, we have identified three pioneer bacteria that drive the development of the gut microbiota, allowing us to group them into infant microbiome profiles.<\/p>\n

“Being able to see the make-up of these ecosystems and how they differ is the first step in developing effective personalised therapy to help support a healthy microbiome.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Dr Ruairi Robertson, Queen Mary University of London lecturer in microbiome science and who was not involved in the research, said: \u201cThis study significantly expands on existing knowledge about how the gut microbiome assembles in the first month of life. <\/p>\n

“We have gained a lot of knowledge in recent years about the influence of birth mode and breastfeeding on gut microbiome assembly and the implications for common childhood disorders such as asthma and allergies. <\/p>\n

“However, this has not yet translated into effective microbiome-targeted therapies.”<\/p>\n

Prof Louise Kenny, from the University of Liverpool, said decisions around childbirth and breastfeeding were “complex and personal” and there was no “one-size-fits-all approach” when it came to the best options.<\/p>\n

“We still have an incomplete understanding of how the role of mode of birth and different methods of infant feeding influence microbiome development and how this impacts later health,” she said.<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s why this research is vital,” she added.<\/p>\n

This research is part of the ongoing UK Baby Biome study, external<\/span> and is funded by Wellcome and the Wellcome Sanger Institute.<\/p>\n

One of the authors, Dr Trevor Lawley, is a the co-founder of a company working on adult probiotics as well as a researcher at the Wellcome Sanger Institute.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
