Roles of Gut Microbiota and Associated Metabolites in Clostridioides difficile Infection

Polish Journal of Microbiology
Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), is the most common healthcare problem primarily involving the colon of individuals who’s gut microbiota has been disrupted.

Prevalence in Potato of ‘Candidatus Arsenophonus Phytopathogenicus’ and ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma Solani’ and Their Transmission via Adult Pentastiridius leporinus

Insects
The planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus (Hempiptera: Cixiidae) is the main vector of two bacterial pathogens: the γ-proteobacterium ‘Candidatus Arsenophonus phytopathogenicus’ and the stolbur phytoplasma ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’.

Early matrine intervention of gut microbiota for type 2 diabetes prevention

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
How matrine influences gut microbiota imbalance to prevent the progression of diabetes remains unclear. We conduct experiments using mice to simulate the stages of diabetes development and matrine intervention. Combined with amplicon sequencing, we find that the gut microbiota of diabetic mice continuously changes with the progression of the disease ...

Ribosomal RNA operon copy number: A trait‐informed framework to close the microbial cultivation gap

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The vast majority of microbes remain uncultured, constraining functional validation and limiting microbiome‐based applications. We show that ribosomal RNA operon (rrn) copy number—a stable, phylogenetically conserved genomic trait—is strongly correlated with cultivation outcomes across ecosystems.

Host‐driven hepatic conversion of gut microbiota‐derived putrescine to spermidine mediates mannose's protective effects against hepatic steatosis in zebrafish

iMeta, EarlyView.
Evidence for liver metabolism of gut‐derived microbial compounds into beneficial secondary metabolites has been lacking. Here, we demonstrate that Cetobacterium somerae (C. somerae), enriched by mannose supplementation under high‐fat diet conditions, convert arginine into putrescine.

Evolvability of Chaperonin Substrate Proteins [PDF]

, 2009
Molecular chaperones ensure that their substrate proteins reach the functional native state, and prevent their aggregation. Recently, an additional function was proposed for molecular chaperones: they serve as buffers (_capacitors_) for evolution by ...

The role of the gut microbiome in the regulation of high‐altitude adaptation

iMeta, EarlyView.
This study is the first to elucidate mechanisms of high‐altitude adaptation from the perspective of the rumen ecosystem by using indigenous yaks and Holstein cows that have lived at high altitude since birth as comparative models. Through a systematic comparison of their rumen ecology using multi‐omics approaches—including rumen metagenomics ...

Salivary microbiota and clinical periodontal measures predicting cardiometabolic disease mortality: A nationwide survey

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although periodontitis and oral microbiota are linked to cardiometabolic diseases (CMD), it is unclear if they similarly predict CMD mortality. We compared the predictive ability of salivary microbiota and periodontal disease measures for CMD mortality in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
