Gut bacteria may have motor neurone disease role

Gut bacteria may be playing a role in motor neurone disease, according to early studies in animals and people.

Axar.az reports citing BBC.

Experiments show some species of bacteria - and the chemicals they make - change the pace of the disease.

The team at the Weizmann Institute in Israel says it adds to work suggesting the "microbiome" alters the brain in autism and Parkinson's disease.

The research is at a very early stage, but the team hope it could lead to the first treatments for the disease.
