Microbiota: what is it?

The Microbiome, a new organ by itself important for health and wellbeing
A healthy microbiome is a well-balanced ecological community of commensal or symbiotic microorganisms present in and on all multicellular organisms and cooperating in symbiosis with the host.

Alterations in this relationship were demonstrated in numerous pathologies. As we continue to improve our understanding of how microbial ecosystems affect the development or progression of several conditions, we are unravelling a new source of potential therapeutic targets and paving the way towards beneficial pharmaceutical innovations for patients (diagnosis, prevention, therapeutic products, etc.).
