First Foods and Gut Microbes [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
The establishment of the human gut microbiota in early life has been associated with later health and disease. During the 1st months after birth, the microbial composition in the gut is known to be affected by the mode of delivery, use of antibiotics, geographical location and type of feeding (breast/formula).

Evolution of Mammals and Their Gut Microbes [PDF]

Science, 2008
Mammals are metagenomic in that they are composed of not only their own gene complements but also those of all of their associated microbes. To understand the coevolution of the mammals and their indigenous microbial communities, we conducted a network-based analysis of bacterial 16 S ...

Comparison of PCR versus PCR-Free DNA Library Preparation for Characterising the Human Faecal Virome

Viruses, 2021
The human intestinal microbiota is abundant in viruses, comprising mainly bacteriophages, occasionally outnumbering bacteria 10:1 and is termed the virome.

The Cynomolgus Macaque Intestinal Mycobiome Is Dominated by the Kazachstania Genus and K. pintolopesii Species

Journal of Fungi, 2022
The cynomolgus macaque, Macaca fascicularis, is a non-human primate (NHP) widely used in biomedical research as its genetics, immunology and physiology are similar to those of humans.

Role of mucin glycosylation in the gut microbiota-brain axis of core 3 O-glycan deficient mice

Scientific Reports, 2023
Alterations in intestinal mucin glycosylation have been associated with increased intestinal permeability and sensitivity to inflammation and infection. Here, we used mice lacking core 3-derived O-glycans (C3GnT−/−) to investigate the effect of impaired ...

Much ado about nothing? Off-target amplification can lead to false-positive bacterial brain microbiome detection in healthy and Parkinson’s disease individuals

Microbiome, 2021
Background Recent studies suggested the existence of (poly-)microbial infections in human brains. These have been described either as putative pathogens linked to the neuro-inflammatory changes seen in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD)

Development of a novel human intestinal model to elucidate the effect of anaerobic commensals on Escherichia coli infection

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2022
The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in protecting against enteric infection. However, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown owing to a lack of suitable experimental models.

Genomic analysis of a rare recurrent Listeria monocytogenes prosthetic joint infection indicates a protected niche within biofilm on prosthetic materials

Scientific Reports, 2021
Listeria monocytogenes is a rare cause of prosthetic joint infections (PJI). In this study, we describe a case of recurrent L. monocytogenes infections, 39 months apart, following debridement and retention of a prosthetic hip.

Gut-Brain Communication is Influenced by Gut Microbes [PDF]

Indian Journal of Microbiology, 2011
Mammalian brain is of particular interest to us and is susceptible to environmental influences during perinatal life. A recent study by a group of researchers at Stockholm Brain Institute and Genome Institute of Singapore revealed that the gut bacteria influence brain development and behaviour [1].
