The Role of the Gastrointestinal Microbiome in Liver Disease [PDF]
Liver disease is a major global health problem leading to approximately two million deaths a year. This is the consequence of a number of aetiologies, including alcohol-related, metabolic-related, viral infection, cholestatic and immune disease, leading to fibrosis and, eventually, cirrhosis.

Decoding the chicken gastrointestinal microbiome [PDF]
Abstract Metataxonomic studies have underpinned a vast understanding of microbial communities residing within livestock gastrointestinal tracts, albeit studies have often not been combined to provide a global census. Consequently, in this study we characterised the overall and common ‘core’ chicken microbiota across the gastrointestinal tract ...

The Link Between Gastrointestinal Microbiome and Ocular Disorders [PDF]
The gut-eye axis has been hypothesized to be a factor in many eye pathologies. This review examines papers from PubMed about this topic. Bacterial commensals could either be protective by regulating the immune system or prove to be damaging to the gut mucosal wall and incite an inflammatory process.

Gastrointestinal Malignancy and the Microbiome [PDF]
Microbial species participate in the genesis of a substantial number of malignancies-in conservative estimates, at least 15% of all cancer cases are attributable to infectious agents. Little is known about the contribution of the gastrointestinal microbiome to the development of malignancies.

Intratumoral microbiome and gastrointestinal cancers
Emerging studies have revealed the role of microbiota in regulating tumorigenesis, development, and response to antitumor treatment. However, most studies have focused on gut microbiota, and little is known about the intratumoral microbiome. To date, the latest research has indicated that the intratumoral microbiome is a key component of the tumor ...

Systematic Analysis of Impact of Sampling Regions and Storage Methods on Fecal Gut Microbiome and Metabolome Profiles. [PDF]
The contribution of human gastrointestinal (GI) microbiota and metabolites to host health has recently become much clearer. However, many confounding factors can influence the accuracy of gut microbiome and metabolome studies, resulting in ...

Microbiome and gastrointestinal malignancies
Microbiota plays an important role in gut homeostasis and immunity against pathogens. However, the dysbiosis of gut microbiota increases the susceptibility of the host to pathogens leading to the development of several diseases including gastrointestinal (GI) cancers.

Is the Oral Microbiome Important in HIV-Associated Inflammation? [PDF]
Alterations in the gut microbiome during HIV infection have been implicated in chronic inflammation, but the role of the oral microbiome in this process is less clear. The article by M. K. Annavajhala, S. D. Khan, S. B. Sullivan, J. Shah, et al. (mSphere

Regional Diversity of the Gastrointestinal Microbiome [PDF]
The role of gut microbes in health and disease has often been surmised from stool, which is easily sampled and rich in microbial diversity, density, and abundance. Microbial analyses of stool have been accepted as measures to determine the relationship of gut microbiomes with host health and disease, based on the belief that it represents all microbial
