Metatranscriptome of human faecal microbial communities in a cohort of adult men [PDF]
The gut microbiome is intimately related to human health, but it is not yet known which functional activities are driven by specific microorganisms\u27 ecological configurations or transcription.

When appropriate culture techniques are employed, Bacteroides bacteremia is found more frequently than might be expected and usually follows contamination from the gastrointestinal or genitourinary tracts. Survival is closely related to the extent of organ impiarment preceding the bacteremia.

Immunochemistry of the cell surfaces of Bacteroides bivius and Bacteroides disiens [PDF]
Outer membranes were extracted from seven strains of Bacteroides bivius and six strains of B. disiens by the Sarkosyl method. Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) were extracted from the same strains by the Proteinase K method, and from three strains of each species by an aqueous phenol method. Analysis of the outer-membrane proteins by SDS-PAGE demonstrated that,

Effects of estradiol and progesterone on Bacteroides melaninogenicus and Bacteroides gingivalis [PDF]
Bacteroides melaninogenicus subsp. intermedius increases in the subgingival microflora during pregnancy. These studies evaluated direct interactions between hormonal steroids and oral Bacteroides species. Resting cell suspensions of pure cultures of plaque organisms were incubated anaerobically with [14C]estradiol and [14C]progesterone.

Micromanagement in the gut : microenvironmental factors govern colon mucosal biofilm structure and functionality [PDF]
The human gut microbiome provides us with functional features that we did not have to evolve ourselves and can be viewed as a structured microbial community that operates like a microbial organ within the human host.

Background: It is increasingly recognized that gut microbiota play a pivotal role in the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Previously, we have reported that the abundance of genus Bacteroides is lower in patients with coronary artery

A variety of cell surface structures dictate interactions between bacteria and their environment, including their viruses (bacteriophages). Members of the human gut Bacteroidetes characteristically produce several phase-variable capsular polysaccharides (

Superoxide dismutase in Bacteroides fragilis and related Bacteroides species [PDF]
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was demonstrated in cell-free extracts of Bacteroides fragilis, Bacteroides vulgatus, Bacteroides distasonis, Bacteroides ovatus, and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron. The strains were grown under anaerobic conditions in Trypticase soy broth, and the specific activity of SOD in the extracts was, in most strains, higher ...
