Out Now! Genome-scale metabolic modelling identifies vaginal microbiome members as potential probiotics #MicroSky
Nature Microbiology, Published online: 12 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41564-026-02380-wMetabolic modelling and experimental validation reveal that current probiotics lack the functional diversity of native microbes, identifying vaginal species that inhibit Gardnerella vaginalis through the dual mechanisms of resource competition and d-lactic acid production.
