Nitrate from food is first converted to nitrite by oral bacteria and then further processed in the intestine. The gut microbiota reduces nitrate and nitrite to ammonia or nitric oxide, preventing the formation of carcinogenic nitrosamines. Our analysis highlights Escherichia coli as a key player in this detoxification process, supported by other ...

Probiotic lactobacilli attenuate oxysterols-induced alteration of intestinal epithelial cell monolayer permeability: Focus on tight junction modulation [PDF]
Oxidative stress and inflammation lead by dietary oxidised lipids, as oxysterols, have been linked to the loss of intestinal barrier integrity, a crucial event in the initiation and progression of intestinal disorders.

Plant‐based fermentation matrices significantly influence microbial diversity and species‐specific proteomic adaptations. The integration of MALDI‐TOF MS and 16S rRNA sequencing with physicochemical analyses allowed for a better understanding of the impact of specific fermentation products on differences in microbial diversity and spectral protein ...
