Enteric opportunistic infections in patients with inflammatory bowel disease receiving biologic therapies: a retrospective cohort study

open access: yesGut Pathogens
Background Biologic therapy has improved outcomes in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) but may predispose patients to enteric opportunistic infections. Asian data comparing infection risk across biologic classes remain scarce.

Spatial heterogeneity of bacterial colonization across different gut segments following inter-species microbiota transplantation

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2020
Background The microbiota presents a compartmentalized distribution across different gut segments. Hence, the exogenous microbiota from a particular gut segment might only invade its homologous gut location during microbiota transplantation. Feces as the

Impact of Intestinal Microbiota on Intestinal Luminal Metabolome [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2012
Low-molecular-weight metabolites produced by intestinal microbiota play a direct role in health and disease. In this study, we analyzed the colonic luminal metabolome using capillary electrophoresis mass spectrometry with time-of-flight (CE-TOFMS) -a novel technique for analyzing and differentially displaying metabolic profiles- in order to clarify the
