Research reveals how a bacterial pathogen creates syringe-like structures to infect the intestines

Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have discovered how a bacterium that infects people after they eat raw or undercooked shellfish creates syringe-like structures to inject its toxins into intestinal cells.

Can a disrupted gut microbiota contribute to anorexia nervosa pathogenesis?

Research investigates whether a disrupted gut microbiota contributes to anorexia nervosa pathogenesis. The study found that a disruptive gut microbiome may contribute to anorexia nervosa pathogenesis.

Early-life gut microbial dysbiosis exacerbates colitis

A recent Research journal study investigated the role of microbiota linked to the anaerobic plasmalogen biosynthetic pathway in establishing intestinal homeostasis. The study hypothesized that the presence of pls [PlsA/R]-positive bacterial species and plasmalogen bestow valuable intestine homeostasis in early life.

Novel amino acid compound treats nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in non-human primates

A recently developed amino acid compound successfully treats nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in non-human primates -; bringing scientists one step closer to the first human treatment for the condition that is rapidly increasing around the world, a study suggests.

Alzheimer's risk patients may benefit from Mediterranean keto diet, study shows gut microbiome changes

In a recent study published in the Journal of the Alzheimer's Association (AA), researchers examined the effects of a low-carbohydrate-modified Mediterranean ketogenic diet (MMKD) on the gut microbiome and metabolome of patients at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Interplay between Western diet, gut microbiota, and cancer development

In a review article published in the journal Seminars in Immunology, scientists have explored the relationship between the Western diet, gut microbiota, and cancer development.

The relationship between intestinal microbiome dysbiosis and atherosclerosis

Researchers investigate the impact of intestinal microbiota dysbiosis on atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease incidence.

Age and sex determine the effects of microbiota on mice's metabolome

The gut handles all ingested foods for further digestion and assimilation. In addition, it harbors a wealth of microbes that produce metabolic byproducts with multiple effects on host physiology. Therefore, changes in the gut microbiome's composition can shift the gut's metabolome as well.

Long-term antibiotic therapy for adolescent acne can affect liver metabolism and promote adiposity

A growing body of evidence is showing that the healthy gut microbiome – a community of microorganisms that live together in the gut – influences many aspects of human growth and development, especially during adolescence.

Specific enzyme produced in liver cancer cells could turn a molecule into potential anticancer drug

Scientists at the National Institutes of Health and Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston have uncovered a potential new approach against liver cancer that could lead to the development of a new class of anticancer drugs.

Distinct microbial profile present in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy patients

Researchers assessed the impact of the gut microbiome on the host's bile acid metabolism and intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP).

The burden of Clostridioides difficile infections in the United States

Researchers review existing data on Clostridioides difficile infections among United States residents.

13 Mar 2023

The right combination of bile salt hydrolases may offer a new approach to treat C. diff

Not all probiotics are created equal. In a new study, researchers found that certain enzymes within a class known as bile salt hydrolases (BSHs) can restrict Clostridioides difficile (C. diff.) colonization by both altering existing bile acids and by creating a new class of bile acids within the gut's microbial environment.

Three intestinal bacteria associated with dementia with Lewy bodies discovered

Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), one of the most common forms of dementia, has no cure. Previous studies suggested that gut bacteria, the microorganisms that live in the human digestive tract, play a role in Parkinson's disease, another neurodegenerative disorder, but the bacteria involved in DLB had not been identified.

Can the gut microbiota and metabolome explain variation in anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination responses in immunosuppressed IBD patients?

Researchers explored the connection between the metabolic function of the gut microbiota, its composition, and immune response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in IBD patients.

Effects of nanoparticles on gouty arthritis in animal models of gout

Researchers performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the effects of nanoparticles on gouty arthritis using animal models.

How the human gut microbiota is shaped by diet

A new study in the journal Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology aimed to summarize the impact of specific nutrients as well as diets on the gut microbiota as well as the future perspectives of using diet as a therapeutic microbiome modulator.
