Conversion of unresponsiveness to immune checkpoint inhibition by fecal microbiota transplantation in patients with metastatic melanoma: study protocol for a randomized phase Ib/IIa trial

BMC Cancer, 2022
Background The gut microbiome plays an important role in immune modulation. Specifically, presence or absence of certain gut bacterial taxa has been associated with better antitumor immune responses.

The Stool Volatile Metabolome of Pre-Term Babies

Molecules, 2021
The fecal metabolome in early life has seldom been studied. We investigated its evolution in pre-term babies during their first weeks of life. Multiple (n = 152) stool samples were studied from 51 babies, all

A Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry-Based Method for the Quantification of Short Chain Fatty Acids

Metabolites, 2022
Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs) are produced by the gut microbiota and are present in varying concentrations in the intestinal lumen, in feces but also in the circulatory system.

Validation of Two Commercial Multiplex Real-Time PCR Assays for Detection of SARS-CoV-2 in Stool Donors for Fecal Microbiota Transplantation

Microorganisms, 2022
Recurrent infection by Clostridioides difficile has recently been treated by fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). As viable SARS-CoV-2 was recovered from stool of asymptomatic individuals, the FMT procedure could be a potential risk of SARS-CoV-2 ...

Infectious SARS-CoV-2 in Feces of Patient with Severe COVID-19

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 was isolated from feces of a patient in China with coronavirus disease who died. Confirmation of infectious virus in feces affirms the potential for fecal–oral or fecal–respiratory transmission and warrants

Insight into the Fecal Microbiota Signature Associated with Growth Specificity in Korean Jindo Dogs Using 16S rRNA Sequencing

Animals, 2022
Gut microbiomes are well recognized to serve a variety of roles in health and disease, even though their functions are not yet completely understood. Previous studies have demonstrated that the microbiomes of juvenile and adult dogs have significantly ...

Lack of evidence for infectious SARS-CoV-2 in feces and sewage

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2021
The SARS-CoV-2 can be excreted in feces and can reach sewage systems. Determining the presence of infective viral particles in feces and sewage is necessary to take adequate control measures and to elucidate new routes of transmission.
