Roseburia hominis improves host metabolism in diet-induced obesity

Gut Microbes
Next-generation live biotherapeutics are promising to aid the treatment of obesity and metabolic diseases. Here, we reported a novel anti-obesity probiotic candidate, Roseburia hominis, that was depleted in stool samples of obese subjects compared with ...

Gut-Microbiota-Derived Metabolites Maintain Gut and Systemic Immune Homeostasis

Cells, 2023
The gut microbiota, including bacteria, archaea, fungi, viruses and phages, inhabits the gastrointestinal tract. This commensal microbiota can contribute to the regulation of host immune response and homeostasis.

Antibiotics and probiotics impact gut antimicrobial resistance gene reservoir in COVID-19 patients

Gut Microbes, 2022
Dysbiosis of gut microbiota is well-described in patients with coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19), but the dynamics of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) reservoir, known as resistome, is less known.

Production of germ-free mosquitoes via transient colonisation allows stage-specific investigation of host–microbiota interactions

Nature Communications, 2021
Germ-free mosquitoes generated with current methods exhibit developmental deficits. Here, the authors use genetically modified bacteria to allow complete decolonisation at any developmental stage of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and show that bacteria support

Lymphoma caused by intestinal microbiota. [PDF]

, 2014
The intestinal microbiota and gut immune system must constantly communicate to maintain a balance between tolerance and activation: on the one hand, our immune system should protect us from pathogenic microbes and on the other hand, most of the millions ...
