Increased Prevalence of Immune-MediatedDisease in Modern World
Traditional Environments Appear to Protect Against Chronic Inflammation
CRP = C-reactive protein.McDade TW, et al. Am J Hum Biol. 2012;24(5):675-681.
CRP levels were measured repeatedly over 4 weeks in 52 individuals living a traditional lifestyle in the Amazon basin. Levels rose and fell with infectious status but were far lower overall than seen in the United States, and no cases of chronically-elevated CRP were observed, as is common in the developed world.

Examples of the 3 Overlapping Categories of Organisms Implicated in the “Hygiene” or “Old Friends” Hypothesis
Rook GA, et al. Trends Immunol. 2008;29(4):150-158.
1) Organisms that form part of the co-evolved human microbiotathat are altered by modern diets, living conditions, and antibiotics
2) Infections commonly present in early man, usually harmless, transmitted by the fecal-oral route very early in life, that have been depleted since urbanization (eg, helminths, hepatitis A virus, Toxoplasma, Salmonella)
3) Harmless environmental organisms in mud, untreated water, and fermenting vegetable material (“pseudocommensals”: lactobacillus, environmental saprophytes) that are eliminated by the modern city lifestyle

POTENTIAL MICROBIAL TREATMENTS
• Probiotics
Usually a dairy food or a dietary supplement containing live bacteria that replace or add to the beneficial bacteria normally present in the gastrointestinal tract
• Prebiotics
A nondigestible food ingredient that promotes the growth of beneficial microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract
• Synbiotics
A product containing both probiotics and prebiotics, with the prebiotic compound selectively favoring the probiotic compound

• Diabetes and related parameters (eg, insulin sensitivity, blood glucose levels)
• Multiple GI-related clinical outcomes in context of colorectal cancer resection
• Possible benefits for CD4 count, recurrence or management of bacterial vaginosis, and diarrhea in HIV
• Atopic dermatitis in children ≥ 1 year and eczema in infants (but not asthma/wheezing) given to infants or pregnant mothers
Probiotics Impact Brain Responses to Depression-Relevant Social Cues
4 weeks of ingesting an FMPP in healthy women resulted in changes to activity- and resting-state brain function. Ingesting the FMPP reduced responses to emotional faces in a distributed functional network containing affective, viscerosensory, and somatosensory cortices. Changes in resting-state midbrain functional connectivity were also observed. FMPP = fermented milk product with multiple probiotic species.Tillisch K, et al. Gastroenterology. 2013;144(7):1394-1401.

• 18 patients with autism spectrum disorders, aged 7–16 years, underwent antibiotic cleansing of the gut followed by prolonged transplant of standardized human microbiota
• This treatment significantly improved both GI and behavioral symptoms
A Digression Relevant to Bodily Immune Processes in Autism
Sharma A, et al. Stem Cell Int. 2013;2013:623875.
Autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells intrathecal transplantation was conducted in 32 patients with autism. All patients were followed up for 26 months (mean 12.7). 29 (91%) patients improved on total Indian Scale for Assessment of Autism (ISAA) scores and 20 patients (62%) showed decreased severity on Clinical Global Impression Improvement subscale (CGI-I). Positron Emission Tomography 6 months after the intervention showed increased FDG uptake in frontal lobe, cerebellum, amygdala, hippocampus, parahippocampus, and mesial temporal lobe.

Pre-Immunization with M vaccae Protects Against Physical and Behavioral Stress Pathology
Reber SO, et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2016;113(22):E3130-E3139.
• Blocked the development of intestinal inflammation
• Prevented stress-induced increases in peripheral inflammatory cytokines
• Increased proactive behavior; ie, they fought back more and because of this were left alone more by the “bully mouse”
• Prevented all measures of stress-induced increases in anxiety-like behavior
• Anti-anxiety and anti-inflammatory effects of M vaccaewere erased when regulatory T cells were blocked
Sociality before Sickness: Who (or What) Benefits Most from Positive Social Connections?
Reiber C, et al. Ann Epidemiol. 2010;20(10):729-733.
In individuals receiving an influenza vaccine, social contacts were significantlyincreased in the 48 hours after the injection when compared to either pre-injection or follow-up periods. Importantly, the period when sociality was maximally increased following vaccine coincides with the period of greatestvirus shedding, and hence infectivity, during naturalistic influenza infection.
Conclusions: I
• 21st century medicine will increasingly see human individuals as pan-species communities
• Changes in the modern world have disrupted our relationship with the microbial world in ways that promote medical and psychiatric disorders
• Data increasingly suggest that manipulating the microbiome may hold promise for the treatment of a wide array of disease states, but much remains to be learned
• Our relationships with the microbial world mirror our relations with other humans: cooperation, conflict, and deception
Conclusions: II
