Reconstruction and Dynamics of the Human Intestinal Microbiome Observed In Situ
The human gut microbiome has primarily been studied through the use of fecal samples, a practice that has generated vital knowledge on the composition and functional capacities of gastrointestinal microbial communities.

Fecal Microbiome in Epidemiologic Studies—Letter [PDF]
We congratulate Sinha and colleagues on their recent report ([1][1]) comparing fecal sample collection methods for epidemiologic studies of the gut microbiome. These data contribute to the increasing body of literature describing robust methodologic frameworks for specimen collection and ...

Covariation of the Fecal Microbiome with Diet in Nonpasserine Birds
Our study identified food source, rather than host phylogeny, as the main factor modulating the gut microbiome diversity of nonpasserine birds, after minimizing the effects of other complex interfering factors such as weather, season, and geography. Adaptive evolution of microbes to food types formed a dietary-microbiome-host interaction reciprocal ...

The fecal microbiome in dogs with acute diarrhea and idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease. [PDF]
Recent molecular studies have revealed a highly complex bacterial assembly in the canine intestinal tract. There is mounting evidence that microbes play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute and chronic enteropathies of dogs, including ...

Coffee Consumption Modulates Amoxicillin-Induced Dysbiosis in the Murine Gut Microbiome
The microbiome is essential for host health, and perturbations resulting from antibiotic use can lead to dysbiosis and disease. Diet can be a powerful modulator of microbiome composition and function, with the potential to mitigate the negative effects ...

Metatranscriptome analysis of the human fecal microbiota reveals subject-specific expression profiles, with genes encoding proteins involved in carbohydrate metabolism being dominantly expressed [PDF]
The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract provides home to a complex microbial community, collectively termed microbiota. Although major efforts have been made to describe the diversity and stability of the microbiota, functional studies have been largely ...

Preterm gut microbiota and metabolome following discharge from intensive care [PDF]
The development of the preterm gut microbiome is important for immediate and longer-term health following birth. We aimed to determine if modifications to the preterm gut on the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) impacted the gut microbiota and ...
