Neonatal gut colonization by Bifidobacterium is associated with higher childhood cytokine responses [PDF]
The gut microbiota is a major stimulus for the immune system, and late acquisition of bacteria and/or reduced complexity of the gut flora may delay adaptive immune maturation.

Exposure to soil environments during earlier life stages is distinguishable in the gut microbiome of adult mice [PDF]
Environmental exposure during earlier life stages can govern the assembly and development of gut microbiota, yet it is insufficiently understood. In this study, ex-germ-free mice were cohoused with distinct soil-microbiota (from desert, steppe, and ...

Food and gut microbes for thoughts [PDF]
The ambulance returns to the hospital with a young motor cyclist who had lost the control of his vehicle on an icy patch on the road. The surgeon observes heavy injuries on one leg, the bones are shattered, severe torsions were exerted on the knee and ankle and a deep open wound goes down into the bone.

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

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).

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

The environment within: how gut microbiota may influence metabolism and body composition [PDF]
Obesity, diabetes and consequently atherosclerotic vascular disease have become major health and public health issues worldwide. The increasing and staggering prevalence of obesity might not only be explained by nutritional habits or the reduction of ...

Human resident gut microbe Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron regulates colonic neuronal innervation and neurogenic function [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: As the importance of gut-brain interactions increases, understanding how specific gut microbes interact with the enteric nervous system (ENS), which is the first point of neuronal exposure becomes critical.
