Extensive microbial and functional diversity within the chicken cecal microbiome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Chickens are major source of food and protein worldwide. Feed conversion and the health of chickens relies on the largely unexplored complex microbial community that inhabits the chicken gut, including the ceca.

Host-microbiome interactions in atopic and allergic diseases

open access: yes, 2023
The environmental exposome impacts the human microbiome, which in turn influences various immune and metabolic functions. Microbiome dysbiosis can be triggered by exposome components and may lead to the development of atopies or exacerbation of existing ...

Isolation and characterisation of ΦcrAss002, a crAss-like phage from the human gut that infects Bacteroides xylanisolvens

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2021
Background The gut phageome comprises a complex phage community of thousands of individual strains, with a few highly abundant bacteriophages. CrAss-like phages, which infect bacteria of the order Bacteroidales, are the most abundant bacteriophage family

An IBD-associated pathobiont synergises with NSAID to promote colitis which is blocked by NLRP3 inflammasome and Caspase-8 inhibitors

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2023
Conflicting evidence exists on the association between consumption of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and symptomatic worsening of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Autochthonous faecal viral transfer (FVT) impacts the murine microbiome after antibiotic perturbation

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2020
Background It has become increasingly accepted that establishing and maintaining a complex and diverse gut microbiota is fundamental to human health. There are growing efforts to identify means of modulating and influencing the microbiota, especially in ...

Gene-trait matching across the Bifidobacterium longum pan-genome reveals considerable diversity in carbohydrate catabolism among human infant strains

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background Bifidobacterium longum is a common member of the human gut microbiota and is frequently present at high numbers in the gut microbiota of humans throughout life, thus indicative of a close symbiotic host-microbe relationship.

The nasopharyngeal microbiome

open access: yesEmerging Topics in Life Sciences, 2017
Human microbiomes have received increasing attention over the last 10 years, leading to a pervasiveness of hypotheses relating dysbiosis to health and disease. The respiratory tract has received much less attention in this respect than that of, for example, the human gut. Nevertheless, progress has been made in elucidating the immunological, ecological

Microbiomes for All [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Microbiome research projects are often interdisciplinary, involving fields such as microbiology, genetics, ecology, evolution, bioinformatics, and statistics. These research projects can be an excellent fit for undergraduate courses ranging from introductory biology labs to upper-level capstone courses.

The microbiome of the lung [PDF]

open access: yesTranslational Research, 2012
Investigation of the lung microbiome is a relatively new field. Although the lungs were classically believed to be sterile, recently published investigations have identified microbial communities in the lungs of healthy humans. At the present time, there are significant methodologic and technical hurdles that must be addressed in ongoing investigations,

Evaluation of 16S rDNA-based community profiling for human microbiome research. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The Human Microbiome Project will establish a reference data set for analysis of the microbiome of healthy adults by surveying multiple body sites from 300 people and generating data from over 12,000 samples.
