Intestinal short chain fatty acids and their link with diet and human health

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The colon is inhabited by a dense population of microorganisms, the so-called gut microbiota, able to ferment carbohydrates and proteins that escape absorption in the small intestine during digestion. This microbiota produces a wide range of metabolites,

Proteinaceous molecules mediating Bifidobacterium-host interactions

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Bifidobacteria are commensal microoganisms found in the gastrointestinal tract.Several strains have been attributed beneficial traits at local and systemic levels, through pathogen exclusion or immune modulation, among other benefits. This has promoted a

Effect of Bifidobacterium upon Clostridium difficile growth and toxicity when co-cultured in different prebiotic substrates

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The intestinal overgrowth of Clostridium difficile, often after disturbance of the gut microbiota by antibiotic treatment, leads to C. difficile infection (CDI) which manifestation ranges from mild diarrhoea to life-threatening conditions. The increasing

Akkermansia muciniphila and environmental enrichment reverse cognitive impairment associated with high-fat high-cholesterol consumption in rats

Gut Microbes, 2021
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is one of the most prevalent diseases globally. A high-fat, high-cholesterol (HFHC) diet leads to an early NASH model.

2-Fucosyllactose Metabolism by Bifidobacteria Promotes Lactobacilli Growth in Co-Culture

Microorganisms, 2023
Breastfeeding is recognized as the gold standard in infant nutrition, not only because of breastmilk’s intrinsic nutritional benefits but also due to the high content of different bioactive components such as 2-fucosyllactose (2′FL) in the mother’s milk.

Abdominal distension after eating lettuce: The role of intestinal gas evaluated in vitro and by abdominal CT imaging

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 31, Issue 12, December 2019., 2019
In some patients lettuce produces abdominal distension, which is not related to gas, but rather to an uncontrolled reaction of the abdominal muscles and the diaphragm. Hence, learning to control the abdominal muscles may prevent distension with no need of dietary restrictions.
