Biologists Transform Gut Bacteria Into Tiny Protein Pharmacies

by

Scientists have engineered bacteria-infecting viruses (phages) to turn gut microbes into microscopic drug factories. This breakthrough allows targeted protein-based therapies to be delivered directly to the lower intestine, showing promise for treating chronic diseases like inflammation and obesity. Addressing one of the longstanding challenges in gastrointestinal drug delivery, Virginia Tech researchers have transformed gut bacteria … Read more
