Abstract
There is growing evidence that micro-RNAs (miRNAs) are key players in the regulation of gut health. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Li et al.<sup>1</sup> uncovered that the dietary fiber stachyose can modulate the luminal miRNA load of the intestinal tracts by binding to HSP90β, thereby altering the gut's microbial composition.
