Identification of key gut microbiota and microbial QTL in contributing to the significant differences in body weight between two Chinese local chicken breeds. [PDF]

open access: yesAnim Genet
Abstract Previous studies have identified genetic loci that are associated with both feed conversion efficiency and gut microbiota in chickens, suggesting that interactions between the host genome and gut microbiota may influence chicken growth. However, the number of microbial QTL and gut microbiota associated with chicken body weight remains largely ...

A shared mucosal gut microbiota signature in primary sclerosing cholangitis before and after liver transplantation

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
In this study of the gut mucosal microbiota in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), we found consistent microbiota features associated with PSC and recurrent PSC, PSC with inflammatory bowel disease and a persistent gut dysbiosis after liver transplantation Abstract Background and Aims Several characteristic features of the fecal microbiota have been ...

Dysbiosis is not present in horses with fecal water syndrome when compared to controls in spring and autumn

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2020
Background Fecal water syndrome (FWS) is long‐standing and common in horses, particularly in central Europe. No large epidemiological data sets exist, and the cause remains elusive. Dysbiosis could play a role in pathogenesis.

Characterization of Early Life Stress-Affected Gut Microbiota

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Early life stress (ELS), such as neglect and maltreatment, exhibits a strong impact on the mental and brain development of children. However, it is not fully understood how ELS affects the body and behavior of children.
