Nanoformulated Diacerein Alleviates Hyperlipidemia via Gut Microbiota Modulation In Vivo

Nano Select, EarlyView.
A nanoformulation of diacerein (Nano‐DIA) was fabricated with carboxymethyl cellulose, achieving enhanced solubility and rapid dissolution for alternative anti‐hyperlipidemia therapeutics. Mechanistic studies revealed its in vivo lipid‐lowering efficacy is through metabolite‐mediated and microbiota‐dependent manner, highlighting its dual action on host

High-Quality Draft Genome Sequence of Desulfovibrio carbinoliphilus FW-101-2B, an Organic Acid-Oxidizing Sulfate-Reducing Bacterium Isolated from Uranium(VI)-Contaminated Groundwater. [PDF]

, 2015
Desulfovibrio carbinoliphilus subsp. oakridgensis FW-101-2B is an anaerobic, organic acid/alcohol-oxidizing, sulfate-reducing δ-proteobacterium. FW-101-2B was isolated from contaminated groundwater at The Field Research Center at Oak Ridge National Lab ...

Magnetic genes: Studying the genetics of biomineralization in magnetotactic bacteria. [PDF]

, 2020
Many species of bacteria can manufacture materials on a finer scale than those that are synthetically made. These products are often produced within intracellular compartments that bear many hallmarks of eukaryotic organelles.

Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Genome of ‘Ca. Desulfovibrio trichonymphae', an H2-oxidizing bacterium in a tripartite symbiotic system within a protist cell in the termite gut

The ISME Journal, 2016
The cellulolytic protist Trichonympha agilis in the termite gut permanently hosts two symbiotic bacteria, ‘Candidatus Endomicrobium trichonymphae’ and ‘Candidatus Desulfovibrio trichonymphae’.

Induction and partial purification of bacteriophages from Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough) and Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ATCC 13541 [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1991
Bacteriophages were induced from cultures of Desulfovibrio vulgaris NCIMB 8303 and Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ATCC 13541 by UV light. The optimum time of UV exposure was 1 min and the maximum yield of phage was obtained 9-10 h after UV treatment. The two phage preparations were compared by restriction enzyme analysis and Southern blot hybridization ...

Taxonomic Features and Comparison of the Gut Microbiome from Two Edible Fungus-Farming Termites (Macrotermes falciger, M. natalensis) Harvested in the Vhembe District of Limpopo, South Africa [PDF]

, 2019
Background Termites are an important food resource for many human populations around the world, and are a good supply of nutrients. The fungus-farming ‘higher’ termite members of Macrotermitinae are also consumed by modern great apes and are implicated ...

Distribution and activity of nitrate and nitrite reductases in the microbiota of the human intestinal tract

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Nitrate from food is first converted to nitrite by oral bacteria and then further processed in the intestine. The gut microbiota reduces nitrate and nitrite to ammonia or nitric oxide, preventing the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamines. Our analysis highlights Escherichia coli as a key player in this detoxification process, supported by other ...

σ54-dependent regulome in Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2015
The σ(54) subunit controls a unique class of promoters in bacteria. Such promoters, without exception, require enhancer binding proteins (EBPs) for transcription initiation. Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough, a model bacterium for sulfate reduction studies, has a high number of EBPs, more than most sequenced bacteria.

Biomass-supported catalysts on Desulfovibrio desulfuricans and Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]

, 2008
A Rhodobacter sphaeroides-supported dried, ground palladium catalyst (‘‘Rs-Pd(0)’’) was compared with a Desulfovibrio desulfuricans-supported catalyst (‘‘Dd-Pd(0)’’)and with unsupported palladium metal particles made by reduction under H2 (‘‘Chem-Pd(0)’’)
