The female urinary microbiota in relation to the reproductive tract microbiota [PDF]

, 2019
AbstractHuman urine is traditionally considered to be sterile, and whether the urine harbours distinct microbial communities has been a matter of debate. The potential link between female urine and reproductive tract microbial communities is currently not clear.Here we collected the urine samples from 147 Chinese women of reproductive age, and explored

From metagenomic data to personalized computational microbiotas: Predicting dietary supplements for Crohn's disease [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Crohn's disease (CD) is associated with an ecological imbalance of the intestinal microbiota, consisting of hundreds of species. The underlying complexity as well as individual differences between patients contributes to the difficulty to define a standardized treatment.

Kidneys and microbiota

Ukrainian Journal of Nephrology and Dialysis, 2019
 The review article analyzes the results of studies of the bi-directional relationship of the intestinal microbiota and kidneys, the so-called colorenal interactive axis of interaction.  The intestinal microbiota is considered as a kind of organ that influences the brain, cardiovascular and immune systems, as well as the kidneys of the "host".

Dimethyl Itaconate Alleviates Escherichia coli‐Induced Endometritis Through the Guanosine‐CXCL14 Axis via Increasing the Abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The research findings indicate that dimethyl itaconate (DI) alleviates Escherichia coli (E. coli) induced endometritis by modulating the gut microbiota and enriching the abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae, thereby increasing the production of guanosine.

The same but different: impact of animal facility sanitary status on a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

arXiv
The gut-brain axis has emerged as a key player in the regulation of brain function and cognitive health. Gut microbiota dysbiosis has been observed in preclinical models of Alzheimer's disease and patients. Manipulating the composition of the gut microbiota enhances or delays neuropathology and cognitive deficits in mouse models.

Antagonist Targeting the Species‐Specific Fatty Acid Dehydrogenase/Isomerase FabX for Anti‐H. pylori Infection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the atypical dehydrogenase/isomerase FabX in Type‐II fatty acid biosynthesis pathway is essential for H. pylori infection by retaining unsaturated fatty acid synthesis and producing superoxide (ROS). A small molecule FBX‐1991 that specifically targets FabX to inhibit H.
