presence of a common gut bacteria triggers an autoimmune disease (article)

[Pinkmoth]

an article discussing the discovery that a particular bacteria is the trigger for a particular autoimmune disease.

my favorite part of the article:
“By identifying a gut bacterium, instead of the immune system, as the target for treatment, the study could lead to new drugs for these patients, according to the scientists … a finding that could impact the understanding and treatment of other autoimmune diseases.”
