Fecal microbiota transplantation influences microbiota without connection to symptom relief in irritable bowel syndrome patients

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes
Imbalanced microbiota may contribute to the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), thus fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been suggested as a potential treatment.

A cohort study in family triads: impact of gut microbiota composition and early life exposures on intestinal resistome during the first two years of life

Gut Microbes
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are prevalent in the infant gut microbiota and make up the intestinal resistome, representing a community ARG reservoir.

Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors and swodkocrine signaling

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors that trigger swodkocrine signaling. Abstract Sugars are one of the major metabolites and are essential for nucleic acid synthesis and energy production. In addition, sugars can act as signaling molecules. To study sugar signaling at the systemic level, there is an urgent need to systematically identify sugar‐sensing ...

A Model for Paired-Multinomial Data and Its Application to Analysis of Data on a Taxonomic Tree [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
In human microbiome studies, sequencing reads data are often summarized as counts of bacterial taxa at various taxonomic levels specified by a taxonomic tree. This paper considers the problem of analyzing two repeated measurements of microbiome data from the same subjects.

Improved husbandry measures to enhance reproducibility of wound healing studies in the Leprdb/db mouse

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Though the Leprdb/db mouse is a common and well‐studied model of type II diabetes mellitus, there are a few specific guidelines for its husbandry, and wound complications are common. We present a modified husbandry approach for the Leprdb/db mouse that includes increased cage size, decreased housing density, and more frequent cage changes.

Longitudinal Metabolomics in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Implicates Impaired Lipid Metabolism

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by altered metabolome and energy homeostasis, manifesting with body mass index changes and hypermetabolism—both prognostic of disease progression and survival.

Microbiota and mucosal gene expression of fecal microbiota transplantation or placebo treated patients with chronic pouchitis

Gut Microbes
Altered microbiota and impaired host immune function have been linked to the pathogenesis of pouchitis. We used 16S rRNA gene sequencing and RNA sequencing data from a previous randomized clinical trial (RCT) on fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT ...

The microbiome science of composting and human excrement composting: a review [PDF]

arXiv
Linear waste management systems are unsustainable and contribute to environmental degradation, economic inequity, and health disparities. Among the array of environmental challenges stemming from anthropogenic impacts, the management of human excrement (human feces and urine) stands as a significant concern.

Assessing Engraftment Following Fecal Microbiota Transplant [PDF]

arXiv
Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) is an FDA approved treatment for recurrent Clostridium difficile infections, and is being explored for other clinical applications, from alleviating digestive and neurological disorders, to priming the microbiome for cancer treatment, and restoring microbiomes impacted by cancer treatment.
