Extensive cultivation of human gut phages revealing undescribed Bacteroidaceae phages [PDF]
The isolated and characterized gut phages remain rare. Most of the gut phages that have been isolated and propagated thus far are lytic phages, leaving significant gaps in the study of gut temperate phages. In this study, we successfully isolated a large-

Antagonistic drug interactions protect commensal Bacteroidaceae from macrolides via an RND-type efflux pump [PDF]
Antibiotics are essential to modern medicine, but their broad-spectrum activity can unintentionally disrupt the gut microbiota. This collateral damage may be alleviated by antagonistic drug interactions, in which specific compounds used in combination ...

Bacteroidaceae, Bacteroides, and Veillonella: emerging protectors against Graves’ disease [PDF]
BackgroundGraves’ 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]
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]
Previous studies have shown high acquisition risks of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) among international travelers visiting antimicrobial resistance (AMR) hotspots.

Growth of Bacteroidaceae in Stirred Fermentors [PDF]
The conditions for increasing bacterial yields in cultures of Bacteroidaceae by the use of stirred fermentors and p H control were investigated by means of three representative species: Sphaerophorus necrophorus, Bacteroides fragilis , and B ...

Dehydrogenase Patterns in the Study of Bacteroidaceae [PDF]
Enzyme patterns were obtained by starch-gel electrophoresis of cell-free extracts from organisms in the family Bacteroidaceae . Esterases, phosphatases, and lactic and succinic dehydrogenases were detected but offered no possibility for classification purposes.

Fatty acid composition and phospholipid types used in infant formulas modifies the establishment of human gut bacteria in germ-free mice [PDF]
Human milk fat contains high concentrations of medium-chained fatty acids (MCFA) and triacylglycerols emulsified by a sphingomyelin-rich phospholipid membrane (milk phospholipids, MPL).

A hypermobile prophage in the genome of a key human gut bacterium. [PDF]
Phages 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 ...
