Through ageing, and beyond: gut microbiota and inflammatory status in seniors and centenarians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Age-related physiological changes in the gastrointestinal tract, as well as modifications in lifestyle, nutritional behaviour, and functionality of the host immune system, inevitably affect the gut microbiota, resulting in a greater ...

Bifidobacterium breve UCC2003 Induces a Distinct Global Transcriptomic Program in Neonatal Murine Intestinal Epithelial Cells

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: The underlying health-driving mechanisms of Bifidobacterium during early life are not well understood, particularly how this microbiota member may modulate the intestinal barrier via programming of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs).

Extracellular vesicles produced by the human commensal gut bacterium Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron affect host immune pathways in a cell‐type specific manner that are altered in inflammatory bowel disease

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2022
The gastrointestinal (GI) tract harbours a complex microbial community, which contributes to its homeostasis. A disrupted microbiome can cause GI‐related diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), therefore identifying host‐microbe ...

The Emerging Role of Bile Acids in the Pathogenesis of Inflammatory Bowel Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract that arises due to complex interactions between host genetic risk factors, environmental factors, and a dysbiotic gut microbiota.

Gut Microbes, Diet, and Cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
An expanding body of evidence supports a role for gut microbes in the etiology of cancer. Previously, the focus was on identifying individual bacterial species that directly initiate or promote gastrointestinal malignancies; however, the capacity of gut microbes to influence systemic inflammation and other downstream pathways suggests that the gut ...

Microbiota Supplementation with Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus Modifies the Preterm Infant Gut Microbiota and Metabolome: An Observational Study

open access: yesCell Reports Medicine, 2020
Summary: Supplementation with members of the early-life microbiota as “probiotics” is increasingly used in attempts to beneficially manipulate the preterm infant gut microbiota. We performed a large observational longitudinal study comprising two preterm

Antibiotic-induced disturbances of the gut microbiota result in accelerated breast tumor growth

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: The gut microbiota’s function in regulating health has seen it linked to disease progression in several cancers. However, there is limited research detailing its influence in breast cancer (BrCa).

Genome Characterization of a Novel Wastewater Bacteroides fragilis Bacteriophage (vB_BfrS_23) and its Host GB124

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Bacteroides spp. are part of the human intestinal microbiota but can under some circumstances become clinical pathogens. Phages are a potentially valuable therapeutic treatment option for many pathogens, but phage therapy for pathogenic Bacteroides spp ...

Qiime Artifact eXtractor (qax): A Fast and Versatile Tool to Interact with Qiime2 Archives

open access: yesBioTech, 2021
Qiime2 is one of the most popular software tools used for analysis of output from metabarcoding experiments (e.g., sequencing of 16S, 18S, or ITS amplicons). Qiime2 introduced a novel and innovative data exchange format: the ‘Qiime2 artifact’.
