Overview of gut flora and probiotics
International Journal of Food Microbiology, 1998Scientific developments in recent years have opened new frontiers and enable a better understanding of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) as a complex and delicately balanced ecosystem. This paper focuses on more recent information related to the microbial population of the GIT and its functional role in human physiology and health.

Microbiome A large proportion of our immune system resides in the gut. Inflammasomes are host molecular complexes that sense danger and activate immune responses to food-related signals and foreign pathogens. Studies in mice have suggested that Nlrp6-ASC inflammasomes influence gut flora composition and susceptibility to obesity, colon inflammation ...

Journal of Renal Nutrition, 1996
The objective of this review is to show the influence of altered gut flora in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). This flora produces toxic metabolites that can be reduced by a biological intervention that acts through modification of bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine.

Schizophrenia and gut-flora related epigenetic factors
Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, 2019Schizophrenia (SZ) is a complex psychiatric disorder and the exact mechanisms that underpin SZ remain poorly understood despite decades of research. Genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors are all considered to play a role. The importance of gut flora and its influence on the central nervous system has been recognized in recent years.

Gut Flora in Normal and Disordered States
Chemotherapy, 1995Infections of the gastrointestinal tract are a major health problem for both adults and children worldwide. Changes in the normal human gut microflora result in the development of intestinal disorders. Pathogenic bacteria alter the intestinal microecology and intestinal colonization resistance.

A dynamic partnership: Celebrating our gut flora
Anaerobe, 2005Emerging data indicate that humans enjoy health through a productive collaboration with their colonizing flora, the majority of whom reside in the colon. This minireview provides a perspective on recent data and the exciting scientific challenges ahead.

Therapeutic Manipulation of Gut Flora
Science, 2000In developed countries as many as two individuals in every thousand suffer from inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease). In his Perspective, Shanahan discusses a new therapeutic approach to treating these conditions in which bacteria normally found in the gut are engineered to produce the anti-inflammatory cytokine ...

Gut flora and disease resistance
1992It is now recognized that the indigenous microflora of humans and animals provides protection against infections with pathogenic microorganisms. Evidence of a protective role for the intestinal flora was obtained largely from studies with either germ-free or antibiotic-treated experimental animals that are much more susceptible to infections with ...
