Gut Bacteria Molecule Linked to Atherosclerosis in Large-Scale Study
A 15-year study of 4,000 Banco Santander employees revealed that gut bacteria produce imidazole propionate (C₆H₈N₂O₂), causing atherosclerosis in 63% of participants, even those seemingly healthy; a drug blocking its receptor prevented disease in mice.
