ILSI Europe perspective review: site-specific microbiota changes during pregnancy associated with biological consequences and clinical outcomes: opportunities for probiotic interventions
Pregnancy induces notable alterations in the gut, vaginal, and oral microbiota driven by hormonal, immune, metabolic, dietary, and environmental factors. During pregnancy, the gut microbiota is cha...

Translational tips:
• For GBS: oral probiotics during the 2nd trimester may reduce colonization.
• For constipation: multi-strain formulas show symptom relief, with no side effects reported.

Key take-homes:
• Strain-specific effects matter, a lot.
• Timing, delivery route, and host context can make or break outcomes.

From big data and experimental models to clinical trials: Iterative strategies in microbiome research
For microbiome research to be translated into clinical applications, the field needs
to move beyond correlational studies; we suggest adopting a multi-phase iterative
approach that leverages in vivo a...

One major challenge: promising findings in mice don’t always translate to humans. We explore why (Figure 2), and how we can use wildling, humanized models, and artificial microbiome therapeutics to bridge the gap. (5/6)

Our perspective highlights:
✅ The need to integrate big data with experimental validation
✅ How to bridge the gap between preclinical models & human trials
✅ Strategies to enhance reproducibility & translatability in microbiome studies (4/6)

By combining multi-omics with traditional microbiology and ecology, we can generate stronger hypotheses—and then rigorously test them in vitro, in vivo, and ultimately in clinical trials. See Figure 1. (3/6)

Over the years, microbiome research has exploded, but translation to clinical applications has lagged behind. Why?
Correlation ≠ causation.
We propose an iterative approach to move from association to true mechanistic understanding. (2/6)
