The role of short-chain fatty acids in the interplay between diet, gut microbiota, and host energy metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2013
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), the end products of fermentation of dietary fibers by the anaerobic intestinal microbiota, have been shown to exert multiple beneficial effects on mammalian energy metabolism.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Introduction to the human gut microbiota

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2017
The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract harbours a complex and dynamic population of microorganisms, the gut microbiota, which exert a marked influence on the host during homeostasis and disease.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Chronic activity-based anorexia triggers a glial response in the hippocampus independent of intestinal epithelial toll-like receptor 4

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation
Anorexia nervosa is characterized by maladaptive eating behavior and psychiatric comorbidities, which could be explained by a neuroinflammation. A gut dysbiosis could link gastrointestinal alterations to central dysfunctions, particularly via the toll ...

The direct and gut microbiota-mediated effects of dietary bile acids on the improvement of gut barriers in largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides)

open access: yesAnimal Nutrition, 2023
Fish gut barrier damage under intensive culture model is a significant concern for aquaculture industry. This study aimed to investigate the effects of bile acids (BAs) on gut barriers in Micropterus salmoides.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Gut microbiota and tuberculosis

open access: yesiMeta
AbstractTuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), remains a significant global health challenge. Recent advancements in gut microbiota (GM) research have shed light on the intricate relationship between GM and TB, suggesting that GM alterations may influence host susceptibility, disease progression, and response to antituberculosis

Sex-dependent effects of a high fat diet on metabolic disorders, intestinal barrier function and gut microbiota in mouse

open access: yesScientific Reports
Obesity is often associated with sex-dependent metabolic complications, in which altered intestinal barrier function and gut microbiota contribute. We aimed to characterize in mice the sex-dependent effects of a high fat diet on these parameters.

Intestinal epithelial TLR4 knock out induces sex-specific effects on gut barrier and microbiome in an activity-based anorexia model

open access: yesGut Microbes
The role of the microbiota‒gut‒brain axis in the pathophysiology of anorexia nervosa has emerged in recent decades. Increased expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) has been reported in the intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) of activity-based anorexia (
