The Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes Ratio as a Risk Factor of Breast Cancer

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2023
The gut microbiome can reflect the health condition of the entire body. Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, the major phyla of the colon, can influence diseases related to obesity which are also risk factors for breast cancer.

Gut microbiota and BMI throughout childhood: the role of firmicutes, bacteroidetes, and short-chain fatty acid producers

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Childhood obesity is a risk factor for numerous health conditions. A critical factor in the etiology of obesity appears to be the gut microbiota, which is the microbial community that resides in the human gut.

Collagen Peptide Exerts an Anti-Obesity Effect by Influencing the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes Ratio in the Gut

open access: yesNutrients, 2023
Alterations in the intestinal microbial flora are known to cause various diseases, and many people routinely consume probiotics or prebiotics to balance intestinal microorganisms and the growth of beneficial bacteria. In this study, we selected a peptide

Composition and Function of Chicken Gut Microbiota

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Studies analyzing the composition of gut microbiota are quite common at present, mainly due to the rapid development of DNA sequencing technologies within the last decade. This is valid also for chickens and their gut microbiota.

Association of the gut microbiota with clinical variables in obese and lean Emirati subjects

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
BackgroundGrowing evidence supports the role of gut microbiota in obesity, yet exact associations remain largely unknown. Specifically, very little is known about this association in the Emirati population.MethodsWe explored differences in gut microbiota

The association between body mass index and the oral Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes profiles of healthy individuals [PDF]

open access: yesMalaysian Family Physician, 2021
Introduction: Microbiome status is considered an important factor that contributes to obesity. Investigations have shown that the oral microbiome comprises a vast array of bacterial species that can influence human health.

MetaHiC phage-bacteria infection network reveals active cycling phages of the healthy human gut

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Bacteriophages play important roles in regulating the intestinal human microbiota composition, dynamics, and homeostasis, and characterizing their bacterial hosts is needed to understand their impact.

Bacteroidetes to Firmicutes: captivity changes the gut microbiota composition and diversity in a social subterranean rodent

open access: yesAnimal Microbiome, 2023
Background In mammals, the gut microbiota has important effects on the health of their hosts. Recent research highlights that animal populations that live in captivity often differ in microbiota diversity and composition from wild populations.

Deep-sea Bacteroidetes from the Mariana Trench specialize in hemicellulose and pectin degradation typically associated with terrestrial systems

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2023
Background Hadal trenches (>6000 m) are the deepest oceanic regions on Earth and depocenters for organic materials. However, how these enigmatic microbial ecosystems are fueled is largely unknown, particularly the proportional importance of complex ...
