Short communication: obesity intervention resulting in significant changes in the human gut viral composition
(MDPI, 2021)
Obesity is a health problem of global concern that negatively impacts quality of life. Various
studies have implicated obesity in the disruption of the normal microbiome composition. The virome
consists of a collection ...
Gut microbial ecology of lizards: insights into diversity in the wild, effects of captivity, variation across gut regions and transmission
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-02)
Animals maintain complex associations with a diverse microbiota living in their guts. Our understanding of the ecology of these associations is extremely limited in reptiles. Here, we report an in-depth study into the ...
Detection of Alterations in the Gut Microbiota and Intestinal Permeability in Patients With Hashimoto Thyroiditis
(2021-03-05)
Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT) is the most common autoimmune disease worldwide, characterized by chronic inflammation and circulating autoantibodies against thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin. Patients require hormone ...
In vitro modulation of human gut microbiota composition and metabolites by Bifidobacterium longum BB-46 and a citric pectin
(2019-06-01)
The gut microbiota composition and its metabolites have high impact on human health. Exploitation of prebiotics and probiotics for modulation of gut microbiota can lead to promising outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate ...
Obesity-induced dysbiosis exacerbates ifn-γ production and pulmonary inflammation in the mycobacterium tuberculosis infection
(2021-07-01)
The microbiota of the gut–lung axis affects local and far-reaching immune responses and might also trigger chronic and inflammatory diseases. We hypothesized that gut dysbiosis induced by obesity, which coexists in countries ...
Impact of combining acerola by-product with a probiotic strain on a gut microbiome model
(2018-01-01)
In this study, we first investigated the survival of three probiotic strains, individually and combined with acerola by-product during simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Next, we investigated the effects of acerola ...
Altered gut microbiota in a fragile x syndrome mouse model
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
The human gut microbiome is the ecosystem of microorganisms that live in the
human digestive system. Several studies have related gut microbiome variants to
metabolic, immune and nervous system disorders. Fragile X ...
Effect of probiotic administration on the intestinal microbiota, current knowledge and potential applications
(Baishideng Publishing Group, 2014-11-28)
Although it is now known that the human body is colonized by a wide variety of microbial populations in different parts (such as the mouth, pharynx and respiratory system, the skin, the gastro- and urogenital tracts), many ...
An exploratory study on the influence of orange juice on gut microbiota using a dynamic colonic model
(2016-06-01)
The aim of this research was to evaluate the influence of fresh orange juice (FOJ) and pasteurized orange juice (POJ) on gut microbiota using the Simulator of the Human Intestinal Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME®) in a long-term ...
Probiotic Product Enhances Susceptibility of Mice to Cryptosporidiosis
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2018-11-01)
Cryptosporidiosis, a leading cause of diarrhea among infants, is caused by apicomplexan parasites classified in the genus Cryptosporidium. The lack of effective drugs is motivating research to develop alternative treatments. ...
