Abstract

Few studies have analyzed how diet-induced changes in the microbiota influence lupus. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Zegarra-Ruiz et al. (2019) find that translocation of Lactobacillus reuteri from the gut to systemic organs worsens lupus. However, diets with resistant starch restrict L. reuteri growth and ameliorate disease.
