Enterotype Bacteroides Is Associated with a High Risk in Patients with Diabetes: A Pilot Study
Background More and more studies focus on the relationship between the gastrointestinal microbiome and type 2 diabetes, but few of them have actually explored the relationship between enterotypes and type 2 diabetes. Materials and Methods.

Viability of Rhizobium bacteroids [PDF]
Bacteroids prepared from nodules of soybean and bean were tested for viability. Contrary to the prevailing view that bacteroids are nonviable, it was found that bacteroids averaged 90% viability, irrespective of Rhizobium strain, nodule age, or nodule environment.

Gene transfer in the GI tract and oral cavity [PDF]
Gene transfer is important in spreading antibiotic resistance and other traits such as virulence factors. In this review the molecular mechanisms of gene transfer are outlined and the biological consequences of bacterial gene transfer in the GI tract and

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) is essential for defense of the intestinal mucosa against harmful pathogens. Gut microbiota impact IgA production, but the specific species responsible for IgA production remain largely elusive. Previous studies have shown that IgA

Antibiotic therapy alters bacterial abundance and metabolism in the gut microbiome, leading to dysbiosis and opportunistic infections. Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (Bth) is both a commensal in the gut and an opportunistic pathogen in other body sites ...
