Gastrointestinal Microbiome and Neurologic Injury [PDF]
Biomedicines, 2022 Communication between the enteric nervous system (ENS) of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and the central nervous system (CNS) is vital for maintaining systemic homeostasis. Intrinsic and extrinsic neurological inputs of the gut regulate blood flow, peristalsis, hormone release, and immunological function. The health of the gut microbiome plays a vital

Gut Dysbiosis and Neurobehavioral Alterations in Rats Exposed to Silver Nanoparticles [PDF]
Scientific Reports 7, Article number: 2822 (2017), 2017 Due to their antimicrobial properties, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are being used in non-edible and edible consumer products. It is not clear though if exposure to these chemicals can exert toxic effects on the host and gut microbiome. Conflicting studies have been reported on whether AgNPs result in gut dysbiosis and other changes within the host. We

The microbiome, gastrointestinal cancer, and immunotherapy [PDF]
Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2021 AbstractThe gastrointestinal tract greatly contributes to global cancer burden and cancer‐related deaths. The microbiota represents the population of microorganisms that live in and around the body, located primarily in the gastrointestinal tract. The microbiota has been implicated in colorectal cancer development and progression, but its role in ...

Gastrointestinal microbiome and gluten in celiac disease [PDF]
Annals of Medicine, 2021 Coeliac disease (CD), also known as gluten sensitive enteropathy, is an autoimmune intestinal disease induced by gluten in genetically susceptible individuals. Gluten is a common ingredient in daily diet and is one of the main environmental factors to induce coeliac disease.

Spatial heterogeneity of the shorebird gastrointestinal microbiome [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2020 The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) consists of connected structures that vary in function and physiology, and different GIT sections potentially provide different habitats for microorganisms. Birds possess unique GIT structures, including the oesophagus, proventriculus, gizzard, small intestine, caeca and large intestine.

Structure, function and diversity of the healthy human microbiome [PDF]
Nature, 2012 Studies of the human microbiome have revealed that even healthy individuals differ remarkably in the microbes that occupy habitats such as the gut, skin and vagina. Much of this diversity remains unexplained, although diet, environment, host genetics and

The role of the microbiome in gastrointestinal inflammation [PDF]
Bioscience Reports, 2021 AbstractThe microbiome plays an important role in maintaining human health. Despite multiple factors being attributed to the shaping of the human microbiome, extrinsic factors such diet and use of medications including antibiotics appear to dominate. Mucosal surfaces, particularly in the gut, are highly adapted to be able to tolerate a large population

Diet and gut microbiome in gastrointestinal disease [PDF]
Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2021 AbstractThe composition and function of the dynamic microbial community that constitutes the gut microbiome is continuously shaped by the host genome, mode of birth delivery, geography, life stage, antibiotic consumption, and diet. Diet is one of the most potent factors in determining microbiome integrity.

The Gastrointestinal Microbiome: A Review [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2017 The gastrointestinal microbiome is a diverse consortium of bacteria, archaea, fungi, protozoa, and viruses that inhabit the gut of all mammals. Studies in humans and other mammals have implicated the microbiome in a range of physiologic processes that are vital to host health including energy homeostasis, metabolism, gut epithelial health, immunologic ...
