Gut bacteria responding to dietary change encode sialidases that exhibit preference for red meat-associated carbohydrates. [PDF]

, 2019
Dietary habits have been associated with alterations of the human gut resident microorganisms contributing to obesity, diabetes and cancer1. In Western diets, red meat is a frequently eaten food2, but long-term consumption has been associated with ...

Advancements in Mass Spectrometry‐Based Glycomics in Food and Nutritional Science

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 829-850, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT This review highlights advancements in mass spectrometry (MS)‐based glycomics in food and nutritional science. Carbohydrates, which are vital for human health, exhibit complex structures, making their analysis challenging. MS has become an indispensable tool for elucidating the structures of carbohydrates, including glycans, through soft ...

Development and Validation of a Microarray for the Investigation of the CAZymes Encoded by the Human Gut Microbiome

PLoS ONE, 2013
Distal gut bacteria play a pivotal role in the digestion of dietary polysaccharides by producing a large number of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) that the host otherwise does not produce. We report here the design of a custom microarray that we used to spot non-redundant DNA probes for more than 6,500 genes encoding glycoside hydrolases and ...

Enteromorpha prolifera Polysaccharide Alleviates Type 2 Diabetes via the Gut Microbiota–Liver Axis to Modulate Cholesterol Metabolism

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Enteromorpha prolifera polysaccharides may help restore lipid metabolism homeostasis by gently remodeling the gut microbiota to enrich beneficial bacteria and SCFAs, which in turn appears to modulate hepatic functions through the portal vein by downregulating cholesterol synthesis and promoting its metabolism. This coordinated process potentially leads

Forces Shaping Diversity of Hydrogen Peroxide Detoxification Potential in Ocean Microbial Ecosystems

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2026.
Marine microbes which lack catalases, like Prochlorococcus, depend on ‘helpers’, like catalase‐positive Alteromonas, for hydrogen peroxide detoxification. Our results indicate diverse and distinct distributions of catalases (katG, katE and manganese catalase) among community members.

Genomic Map of Escherichia coli and Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Markers in Colorectal Cancer

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study identified colorectal cancer‐associated SNPs in Escherichia coli using PacBio full‐genome sequencing, establishing a highly accurate SNP‐based model for non‐invasive colorectal cancer risk prediction. ABSTRACT Gut microbial single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) offer stable, specific genetic markers for disease diagnosis.
