Emerging trends in 'smart probiotics' : functional consideration for the development of novel health and industrial applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The link between gut microbiota and human health is well-recognized and described. This ultimate impact on the host has contributed to explain the mutual dependence between humans and their gut bacteria.

Mobilization of Bacteroides plasmids by Bacteroides conjugal elements [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1988
A 4.2-kilobase cryptic Bacteroides plasmid, pB8-51, is found in several colonic Bacteroides species. To determine whether pB8-51 is mobilized by any of the known Bacteroides conjugal elements, we constructed an Escherichia coli-Bacteroides shuttle vector, pVAL-1, which contains pB8-51.

Functional roles of the microbiota-gut-brain axis in Alzheimer’s disease: Implications of gut microbiota-targeted therapy

open access: yesTranslational Neuroscience, 2021
Increasing scientific evidence demonstrates that the gut microbiota influences normal physiological homeostasis and contributes to pathogenesis, ranging from obesity to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Cytotoxic Activity of Bacteroides Gingivalis and Bacteroides Asaccharolyticus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 1982
Culture filtrates of all eight strains of Bacteroides gingivalis and all five strains of B. asaccharolyticus were toxic for Vero cells. Cytotoxicity was in general greater with material from cultures of B. gingivalis than from B. asaccharolyticus but none of the culture filtrates from eight strains of B.
