Repertoire of human gut microbes [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobial Pathogenesis, 2017
In 1675, Antoni Van Leeuwenhoeck was the first to observe several forms using an optical microscope that he named "animalcules", realizing later that these were microorganisms. The first classification of living organisms proposed by Ehrenberg in 1833 was based on what we could visualize.

Beneficial Microbes: The pharmacy in the gut [PDF]

open access: yesBioengineered, 2015
The scientific evidence supporting the gut microbiome in relation to health maintenance and links with various disease states afflicting humans, from metabolic to mental health, has grown dramatically in the last few years. Strategies addressing the positive modulation of microbiome functionality associated with these disorders offer huge potential to ...

Ultra-resolution Metagenomics: When Enough Is Not Enough

open access: yesmSystems, 2021
Technological advances in community sequencing have steadily increased the taxonomic resolution at which microbes can be delineated. In high-resolution metagenomics, bacterial strains can now be resolved, enhancing medical microbiology and the ...

SARS-CoV-2 Causes a Different Cytokine Response Compared to Other Cytokine Storm-Causing Respiratory Viruses in Severely Ill Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Hyper-induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines, also known as a cytokine storm or cytokine release syndrome (CRS), is one of the key aspects of the currently ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

Gut Microbes Take Their Vitamins [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2014
The dense microbial ecosystem within the gut is connected through a complex web of metabolic interactions. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Degnan et al. (2014) establish the importance of different vitamin B12 transporters that help a Bacteroides species acquire vitamins from the environment to maintain a competitive edge.

The role of the mucin-glycan foraging Ruminococcus gnavus in the communication between the gut and the brain

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2022
Ruminococcus gnavus is a prevalent member of the human gut microbiota, which is over-represented in inflammatory bowel disease and neurological disorders. We previously showed that the ability of R.

The gut microbiome stability is altered by probiotic ingestion and improved by the continuous supplementation of galactooligosaccharide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The stable gut microbiome plays a key role in sustaining host health, while the instability of gut microbiome also has been found to be a risk factor of various metabolic diseases.

Preterm Infants Harbour a Rapidly Changing Mycobiota That Includes Candida Pathobionts

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
Fungi and the mycobiome are a fundamental part of the human microbiome that contributes to human health and development. Despite this, relatively little is known about the mycobiome of the preterm infant gut.

Metabolic adaptation to a high-fat diet is associated with a change in the gut microbiota [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Objective The gut microbiota, which is considered a causal factor in metabolic diseases as shown best in animals, is under the dual influence of the host genome and nutritional environment. This study investigated whether the gut microbiota per se, aside

Genomic analysis on broiler-associated Clostridium perfringens strains and exploratory caecal microbiome investigation reveals key factors linked to poultry necrotic enteritis

open access: yesAnimal Microbiome, 2019
Background Clostridium perfringens is a key pathogen in poultry-associated necrotic enteritis (NE). To date there are limited Whole Genome Sequencing based studies describing broiler-associated C. perfringens in healthy and diseased birds.
