Metagenomic analysis of endophytic bacteria in seed potato (Solanum tuberosum)

open access: yesOpen Life Sciences
To date, the association of potato tuber microbiota is poorly understood. In this study, the endophytic bacterial flora of seed potato tubers was identified and the diversity of healthy and unhealthy tubers was compared.

Gut Microbiota–Metabolism Axis Shapes the Individual Metabolic Phenotype of Different Microbiota‐Accessible Carbohydrates

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
Specific MAC bioactivities are associated with gut biotransformation. ABSTRACT Increasing the intake of microbiota‐accessible carbohydrates (MACs) has emerged as a promising nutritional strategy for preventing metabolic diseases. However, the consistency of their beneficial effects remains unclear, hindering their optimized application.

A probabilistic model for gene content evolution with duplication, loss, and horizontal transfer

open access: yes, 2005
We introduce a Markov model for the evolution of a gene family along a phylogeny. The model includes parameters for the rates of horizontal gene transfer, gene duplication, and gene loss, in addition to branch lengths in the phylogeny. The likelihood for

Pulicaria incisa Infusion Modulates the Gut Microbiota and Improves Locomotor Activity and Exploratory Behavior in Aging Mice

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
‐Pi infusion significantly improved locomotor activity and exploratory behavior in aging mice; its bioactive compounds may have direct effects on behavior, which may be accompanied by a putative indirect effect involving the gut microbiota. ‐Pi infusion consumption restored commensal Bacilli levels and caused a significant decrease in Clostridia levels

Insect‐Derived Bioactives for Glycemic Control and Gut Health: A Review

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
Insect‐derived bioactive compounds (e.g., peptides, polysaccharides) effectively regulate blood glucose through dual mechanisms: directly inhibiting carbohydrate‐digesting enzymes and glucose transporters, and indirectly modulating gut microbiota to enhance intestinal barrier integrity.

Effect of medicinal and food homologous plants polysaccharides on animal nutrition and health: A review

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract As one of the most important components of foods, animal meat provides a lot of protein, fat, and energy for humans. However, nutrition and health of animals directly affect the healthiness of human, especially antibiotic residues in animals induced by abuse of antibiotics.

Construction of Chronic Kidney Disease Mouse Model Induced by Diets With Different Adenine Content

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
By administering a 4 weeks adenine diet to C57BL/6J mice, we identified 0.2% adenine in purified feed as the optimal chronic kidney disease model. This model induces severe renal damage, gut dysbiosis, uremic toxin accumulation, and CKD mineral bone disorder, providing a clinically relevant platform for mechanistic and therapeutic studies.
