Systems genetics uncovers associations among host amylase locus, gut microbiome, and metabolic traits in mice

Microbiome
Background Population studies have revealed associations between host genetic and gut microbiome in humans and mice. However, the molecular bases for how host genetic variation impacts the gut microbial community and bacterial metabolic niches remain ...

Distinct Gut Microbial Enterotypes and Functional Dynamics in Wild Striped Field Mice (Apodemus agrarius) across Diverse Populations

Microorganisms
Rodents, including the striped field mouse (Apodemus agrarius), play vital roles in ecosystem functioning, with their gut microbiota contributing significantly to various ecological processes. Here, we investigated the structure and function of 94 wild A.

Stool consistency is strongly associated with gut microbiota richness and composition, enterotypes and bacterial growth rates

, 2016
Objective: The assessment of potentially confounding factors affecting colon microbiota composition is essential to the identification of robust microbiome based disease markers.

Gut Microbiota Enterotype as a Predictor of Sarcopenia in the Japanese Elderly Population

Nutrients
Background/Objectives: Frailty and sarcopenia are age-related conditions that impair quality of life in older adults. Although the gut microbiota affects muscle health, its role in sarcopenia remains unclear. This study investigated the association between gut microbiota enterotypes and sarcopenia in community-dwelling older Japanese adults.

Significant associations between high-risk sexual behaviors and enterotypes of gut microbiome in HIV-negative men who have sex with men

mSphere
Gut microbiome of men who have sex with men (MSM) exhibits distinctive characteristics compared with general populations. The dysbiosis of the gut microbiome in MSM is also associated with the onset and evolution of HIV infection.

Association between enterotypes of the gut microbiota and features of ischemic stroke

Scientific Reports
An enterotype is a classification of patients' gut microbes into three types, and these types differ in their features of cardiovascular disease. We hypothesized that patients have different enterotypes depending on their arteriosclerosis risk factors, stroke subtype, and severity of stroke. Stool samples were prospectively collected from 100 patients (
