Biological Aging and the Human Gut Microbiota [PDF]
The human gastrointestinal microbiota plays a key homeostatic role in normal functioning of physiologic processes commonly undermined by aging. We used a previously validated 34-item frailty index (FI34) to identify changes in gut microbiota community structure associated with biological age of community-dwelling adults.

The gut microbiota and diabetic cardiomyopathy in humans
Type 2 diabetes (DT2) increases the risk of cardiovascular events and cardiac insufficiency. This insufficiency is mostly post-ischaemic in nature, but other aetiologies are possible in this high-risk population. In patients with DT2, diabetic cardiomyopathy is a recognized cause of cardiac insufficiency secondary to chronic hyperglycaemia and ...

Gut microbiota changes correlate with health status. Literature data on gut microbiota show that all dietary changes can induce the alteration of gut microbiota composition. Mediterranean diet (MD) is associated with a reduction of all-cause mortality and in this review, we analyzed its interactions with human microbiota. In particular, we explored the

Specificities of chemosensory receptors in the human gut microbiota. [PDF]
Abstract The human gut is rich in metabolites and harbors a complex microbial community, yet the sensory repertoire of its commensal bacteria remains largely uncharacterized. Here we systematically mapped ligand specificities of extracytoplasmic sensory domains from twenty members of the human gut microbiota, with a primary focus on the
