Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...

Detection of Verrucomicrobia in a Pasture Soil by PCR-Mediated Amplification of 16S rRNA Genes [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1999
ABSTRACT Oligonucleotide primers were designed and used to amplify, by PCR, partial 16S rRNA genes of members of the bacterial division Verrucomicrobia in DNA extracted from a pasture soil. By applying most-probable-number theory to the assay, verrucomicrobia appeared to contribute some 0.2% of the soil ...

Genomic and physiological analysis of carbon storage in the verrucomicrobial methanotroph "Ca. Methylacidiphilum fumariolicum" SolV

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Candidatus Methylacidiphilum fumariolicum SolV is a verrucomicrobial methanotroph that can grow in extremely acidic environments at high temperature. Strain SolV fixes carbon dioxide (CO2) via the Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle with methane as energy source,

Effects of GLP‐1 agonists on the gut microbiota in type 2 diabetes mellitus: a systematic review

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This systematic review evaluated 17 studies (12 preclinical and five clinical) on GLP‐1 receptor agonists in type 2 diabetes, demonstrating effects on the gut microbiota and metabolic improvement. The studies showed an increase in Bacteroidetes, Lactobacillus, and Akkermansia, and a reduction in Firmicutes.

Complete genome sequence of bacteriophage P8625, the first lytic phage that infects Verrucomicrobia [PDF]

open access: yesStandards in Genomic Sciences, 2015
AbstractBacteriophage P8625 is a lytic bacteriophage that infects the verrucomicrobial strain IMCC8625, a marine bacterium affiliated with Verrucomicrobia subdivision 4. Both the bacteriophage and the host bacterial strain were isolated from surface seawater samples collected off the east coast of Korea.

Functional metagenomics reveals previously unrecognized diversity of antibiotic resistance genes in gulls

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2011
Wildlife may facilitate the spread of antibiotic resistance (AR) between human-dominated habitats and the surrounding environment. Here, we use functional metagenomics to survey the diversity and genomic context of AR genes in gulls. Using this approach,

Understanding the Molecular Processes of Obesity and the Anti‐Obesity Properties of Bioactive Substances Found in Tea

open access: yesPhytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Obesity, a severe worldwide health concern, is characterized as an excessive deposit of fat in the human body. It has various ramifications that endanger human health and increase the financial expense. Obesity raises the risk of several illnesses, notably cardiovascular disease, NALFD, and diabetes, and has been associated with shorter ...

Evolutionary insights into bilin biosynthesis: Functional characterization of pre‐PcyA enzymes

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Biosynthesis of the linear tetrapyrrole phycocyanobilin (PCB) by the ferredoxin‐dependent bilin reductase (FDBR) PcyA is essential for light‐harvesting and regulatory processes in diverse photosynthetic organisms, yet its evolutionary origins are not fully understood. PcyA evolved from pre‐PcyA proteins found in diverse bacteria.
