Intestinal stem cells: guardians of homeostasis in health and aging amid environmental challenges
The intestinal epithelium is the first line of defense and acts as an interface between the vast microbial world within the gastrointestinal tract...
-
Stool energy density is positively correlated to intestinal transit time and related to microbial enterotypes
BackgroundIt has been hypothesised that the gut microbiota causally affects obesity via its capacity to extract energy from the diet. Yet, evidence...

Toxocara canis-induced changes in host intestinal microbial communities
BackgroundToxocara canis is a roundworm that resides in the gastrointestinal tract of dogs and causes various pathological changes. The dog’s...

Differences between the intestinal microbial communities of healthy dogs from plateau and those of plateau dogs infected with Echinococcus
ObjectiveCystic echinococcosis (CE) represents a profoundly perilous zoonotic disease. The advent of viral macrogenomics has facilitated the...

Endogenous small intestinal microbiome determinants of transient colonisation efficiency by bacteria from fermented dairy products: a randomised controlled trial
BackgroundThe effects of fermented food consumption on the small intestine microbiome and its role on host homeostasis are largely uncharacterised as...

Alternative stable states in the intestinal ecosystem: proof of concept in a rat model and a perspective of therapeutic implications
BackgroundChronic immune-mediated diseases are rapidly expanding and notoriously difficult to cure. Altered relatively stable intestinal microbiota...

Arula-7 powder improves diarrhea and intestinal epithelial tight junction function associated with its regulation of intestinal flora in calves infected with pathogenic Escherichia coli O1
BackgroundThe effects of Arula-7 powder (ASP) on diarrhea and intestinal barrier function associated with its regulation of intestinal microflora in...

Population mixing mediates the intestinal flora composition and facilitates invasiveness in a globally invasive fruit fly
BackgroundChanges in population heterozygosity and genetic diversity play important roles in mediating life history traits of organisms; these...

Regulatory T cells in the face of the intestinal microbiota
Regulatory T cells (T reg cells) are key players in ensuring a peaceful coexistence with microorganisms and food antigens at intestinal borders....

Intestinal microbiota and metabolome perturbations in ischemic and idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy
BackgroundVarious clinical similarities are present in ischemic (ICM) and idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM), leading to ambiguity on some...

Microbial regulation of intestinal motility provides resistance against helminth infection
Soil-transmitted helminths cause widespread disease, infecting ~1.5 billion people living within poverty-stricken regions of tropical and subtropical...

Antibiotic treatment using amoxicillin-clavulanic acid impairs gut mycobiota development through modification of the bacterial ecosystem
BackgroundEffects of antibiotics on gut bacteria have been widely studied, but very little is known about the consequences of such treatments on the...

Genes mcr improve the intestinal fitness of pathogenic E. coli and balance their lifestyle to commensalism
BackgroundThe plasmid-mediated resistance gene mcr-1 confers colistin resistance in Escherichia coli and paves the way for the evolution to pan-drug...

Chromosome folding and prophage activation reveal specific genomic architecture for intestinal bacteria
BackgroundBacteria and their viruses, bacteriophages, are the most abundant entities of the gut microbiota, a complex community of microorganisms...

Fecal Coprococcus, hidden behind abdominal symptoms in patients with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth
BackgroundSmall intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is the presence of an abnormally excessive amount of bacterial colonization in the small...
