mutual reinforcement of pathophysiological host-microbe interactions in intestinal stasis models.chronic diseases arise when there is mutual reinforcement of pathophysiological processes that cause an aberrant steady state. such a sequence of events may underlie chronic constipation, which has been associated with dysbiosis of the gut. in this study we hypothesized that assemblage of microbial communities, directed by slow gastrointestinal transit, affects host function in a way that reinforces constipation and further maintains selection on microbial communities. in our study, we used two ...201728320888
microbial community of healthy thai vegetarians and non-vegetarians, their core gut microbiota, and pathogen risk.pyrosequencing analysis of intestinal microflora from healthy thai vegetarians and non-vegetarians exhibited 893 otus covering 189 species. the strong species indicators of vegetarians and non-vegetarians were prevotella copri and bacteroides vulgatus as well as bacteria close to escherichia hermanii with % relative abundance of 16.9 and 4.5-4.7, respectively. core gut microbiota of the vegetarian and non-vegetarian groups consisted of 11 and 20 different bacterial species, respectively, belongi ...201627381339
two healthy diets modulate gut microbial community improving insulin sensitivity in a human obese population.gut microbiota, which acts collectively as a fully integrated organ in the host metabolism, can be shaped by long-term dietary interventions after a specific diet.201626505825
the gut microbial community in metabolic syndrome patients is modified by diet.intestinal microbiota changes may be involved in the development of metabolic syndrome (mets), which is a multicomponent disorder frequently associated with obesity. the aim of this study was to test the effect of consuming two healthy diets: a mediterranean diet and a low-fat high-carbohydrate diet, for 2years in the gut microbiota of mets patients and those in the control group. we analyzed the differences in the bacterial community structure between the groups after 2years of dietary interven ...201626376027

does a sliding hiatus hernia constitute a distinct clinical entity?in a sliding hiatus hernia, the esophagogastric junction is above the diaphragm. it is called a sliding hernia because anatomically it resembles a sliding inguinal hernia and not because of an upward and downward motion through the esophageal hiatus. symptoms may arise from the hernia because it becomes distended or bleeds; much more commonly the hernia is said to produce gastroesophageal reflux with its secondary complications. however, certain clinical and manometric data suggest that the hern ...20164951149

sex differences in colonization of gut microbiota from a man with short-term vegetarian and inulin-supplemented diet in germ-free mice.gnotobiotic mouse model is generally used to evaluate the efficacy of gut microbiota. sex differences of gut microbiota are acknowledged, yet the effect of recipient's gender on the bacterial colonization remains unclear. here we inoculated male and female germ-free c57bl/6j mice with fecal bacteria from a man with short-term vegetarian and inulin-supplemented diet. we sequenced bacterial 16s rrna genes v3-v4 region from donor's feces and recipient's colonic content. shannon diversity index show ...201627796317
rhizoma coptidis alkaloids alleviate hyperlipidemia in b6 mice by modulating gut microbiota and bile acid pathways.it is hypothesized that rhizoma coptidis (rc) alkaloids exert their hypolipidemic effects primarily by targeting the gastrointestinal tract and liver. thus, this study was conducted to evaluate the antihyperlipidemic mechanisms of rc alkaloids (at a daily dose of 140mg/kg for 35days) in high-fat and high-cholesterol induced hyperlipidemic b6 mice. after treatment, serum lipid parameters were determined, the expression of lipid metabolism related genes and pathways such as the sterol regulatory e ...201627287254
pglyrp-regulated gut microflora prevotella falsenii, parabacteroides distasonis and bacteroides eggerthii enhance and alistipes finegoldii attenuates colitis in mice.dysbiosis is a hallmark of inflammatory bowel disease (ibd), but it is unclear which specific intestinal bacteria predispose to and which protect from ibd and how they are regulated. peptidoglycan recognition proteins (pglyrps) are antibacterial, participate in maintaining intestinal microflora, and modulate inflammatory responses. mice deficient in any one of the four pglyrp genes are more sensitive to dextran sulfate sodium (dss)-induced colitis, and stools from pglyrp-deficient mice transferr ...201626727498

comparison of anti-campylobacter activity of free thymol and thymol-β-d-glucopyranoside in absence or presence of β-glycoside-hydrolysing gut bacteria.thymol is a natural product that exhibits antimicrobial activity in vitro but in vivo results indicate that absorption within the proximal alimentary tract precludes its delivery to the distal gut. presently, the anti-campylobacter activity of thymol was compared against that of thymol-β-d-glucopyranoside, the latter being resistant to absorption. when treated with 1 mm thymol, campylobacter coli and jejuni were reduced during pure or co-culture with a β-glycoside-hydrolysing parabacteroides dis ...201525465999
butyrylated starch intake can prevent red meat-induced o6-methyl-2-deoxyguanosine adducts in human rectal tissue: a randomised clinical trial.epidemiological studies have identified increased colorectal cancer (crc) risk with high red meat (hrm) intakes, whereas dietary fibre intake appears to be protective. in the present study, we examined whether a hrm diet increased rectal o(6)-methyl-2-deoxyguanosine (o(6)meg) adduct levels in healthy human subjects, and whether butyrylated high-amylose maize starch (hamsb) was protective. a group of twenty-three individuals consumed 300 g/d of cooked red meat without (hrm diet) or with 40 g/d of ...201526084032
diversity and comparative genomics of microviridae in sphagnum- dominated peatlands.microviridae, a family of bacteria-infecting ssdna viruses, is one of the still poorly characterized bacteriophage groups, even though it includes phage phix174, one of the main models in virology for genomic and capsid structure studies. recent studies suggest that they are diverse and well represented in marine and freshwater virioplankton as well as in human microbiomes. however, their diversity, abundance, and ecological role are completely unknown in soil ecosystems. here we present the com ...201525972855
specific character of anaerobic bacterial infections in patients treated in transplantation wards at one of the clinical hospitals in warsaw.immunocompromised patients and patients undergoing invasive procedures are predisposed to bacterial infections, due to the possibility of micro-organism translocation from their physiological habitat. infectious complications may occur both in the early and late post-transplantation periods. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the proportion as well as susceptibility profiles of obligatory anaerobes in the etiology of infections in patients hospitalized at transplantation wards of a large ...201425380872
phenotypic and genotypic characterization of multidrug-resistant bacteroides, parabacteroides spp., and pseudoflavonifractor from a costa rican hospital.multidrug resistance in bacteroides spp. and related genera is uncommon and has not been described in latin america until now. we studied phenotypically and genotypically the multidrug resistance of 10 clinical strains of bacteroides, two of parabacteroides distasonis, and one of pseudoflavonifractor capillosus recovered in a national hospital between 2006 and 2010. to this end, we determined minimum inhibitory concentrations (mics) of amoxicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, cefotaxime, imipen ...201424606061
crystallization and preliminary analysis of the nqra and nqrc subunits of the na+-translocating nadh:ubiquinone oxidoreductase from vibrio cholerae.the na+-translocating nadh:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (na+-nqr) from vibrio cholerae is a membrane protein complex consisting of six different subunits nqra-nqrf. the major domains of the nqra and nqrc subunits were heterologously expressed in escherichia coli and crystallized. the structure of nqra1-377 was solved in space groups c222₁ and p2₁ by sad phasing and molecular replacement at 1.9 and 2.1 å resolution, respectively. nqrc devoid of the transmembrane helix was co-expressed with apbe to i ...201425005105
