Resistant starches from dietary pulses improve neurocognitive health via gut-microbiome-brain axis in aged mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition
IntroductionCognitive decline is a common consequence of aging. Dietary patterns that lack fibers and are high in saturated fats worsen cognitive impairment by triggering pro-inflammatory pathways and metabolic dysfunctions.

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 ...

Extensive inter-domain lateral gene transfer in the evolution of the human commensal Methanosphaera stadtmanae

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2012
Methanosphaera stadtmanae is a commensal methanogenic archaeon found in the human gut. As most of its niche-neighbors are bacteria, it is expected that lateral gene transfer (LGT) from bacteria might have contributed to the evolutionary history of this ...

Effects of Olive and Pomegranate By-Products on Human Microbiota: A Study Using the SHIME® In Vitro Simulator

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Two by-products containing phenols and polysaccharides, a “pâté” (OP) from the extra virgin olive oil milling process and a decoction of pomegranate mesocarp (PM), were investigated for their effects on human microbiota using the ...

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

Syntrophy via Interspecies H2 Transfer between Christensenella and Methanobrevibacter Underlies Their Global Cooccurrence in the Human Gut

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Across human populations, 16S rRNA gene-based surveys of gut microbiomes have revealed that the bacterial family Christensenellaceae and the archaeal family Methanobacteriaceae cooccur and are enriched in individuals with a lean, compared to an obese ...

The environment within: how gut microbiota may influence metabolism and body composition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...
