Cranberry extracts promote growth of Bacteroidaceae and decrease abundance of Enterobacteriaceae in a human gut simulator model [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 The opportunistic pathogen Escherichia coli, a common member of the human gut microbiota belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family, is the causative agent of the majority of urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Key bacterial families (Clostridiaceae, Erysipelotrichaceae and Bacteroidaceae) are related to the digestion of protein and energy in dogs [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Background Much of the recent research in companion animal nutrition has focussed on understanding the role of diet on faecal microbiota composition. To date, diet-induced changes in faecal microbiota observed in humans and rodents have been extrapolated

Bacteroidaceae, Bacteroides, and Veillonella: emerging protectors against Graves’ disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection MicrobiologyBackgroundGraves’ disease (GD) is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism, and its pathogenesis remains incompletely elucidated. Numerous studies have implicated the gut microbiota in the development of thyroid disorders.

Diversity of Bacteroidaceae family in gut microbiota of patients with chronic kidney disease and end stage renal disease [PDF]
Health Promotion Perspectives, 2023 Background: Human intestine microbiota are known to be directly and indirectly altered during some diseases such as kidney complications. Bacteroides is considered as the main and the most abundant phylum among human gut microbiota, which has been ...

Enterobacteriaceae and Bacteroidaceae provide resistance to travel-associated intestinal colonization by multi-drug resistant Escherichia coli [PDF]
Gut Microbes, 2022 Previous studies have shown high acquisition risks of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) among international travelers visiting antimicrobial resistance (AMR) hotspots.

Broad host range may be a key to long-term persistence of bacteriophages infecting intestinal Bacteroidaceae species [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 The longitudinal studies have found that the human gut microbiota is stable over time with some major bacterial lineages or even strains persisting for years. This was recently extended to gut bacteriophages using the metagenomic data.

A hypermobile prophage in the genome of a key human gut bacterium. [PDF]
PLoS BiologyPhages infecting anaerobic bacteria are highly abundant in the mammalian gut, but their biology and ecological impact are poorly understood. A new PLOS Biology study provides a glimpse into the disruptive biology of the Hankyphages, parasites of the ...

Macrogenomic and Metabolomic Analyses Reveal Mechanisms of Gut Microbiota and Microbial Metabolites in Diarrhea of Weaned Piglets [PDF]
AnimalsRecent studies have shown a correlation between piglet diarrhea and the gut microbiota. However, the precise mechanism by which intestinal microorganisms and their metabolites influence diarrhea in weaned piglets remains unclear.

Clade-specific long-read sequencing increases the accuracy and specificity of the gyrB phylogenetic marker gene [PDF]
mSystemsPhylogenetic marker gene sequencing is often used as a quick and cost-effective way of evaluating microbial composition within a community. While 16S rRNA gene sequencing (16S) is commonly used for bacteria and archaea, other marker genes are preferable ...

Development of the Caecal Microbiota in Three Broiler Breeds
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019 The development of the caecal microbiota plays a role in the metabolism and immune competence of chickens. A detailed understanding of normal succession in the caecal microbiota can inform the use of probiotics and other interventions to optimize the ...
