The gut microbiome is thought to play a role in depressive disorders, which makes it an attractive target for interventions. Both the and symptom levels vary substantially across ethnic groups. Thus, any intervention depression targeting requires understanding of microbiome-depression associations ethnicities. Analysing data from HELIUS cohort, we characterize microbiota its with symptoms 6 groups (Dutch, South-Asian Surinamese, African Ghanaian, Turkish, Moroccan; N = 3211), living same urban area. Diversity microbiota, both within (α-diversity) between individuals (β-diversity), predicts levels, taking into account demographic, behavioural, medical differences. These do not differ Further, β-diversity explains 29%-18% differences symptoms. Bacterial genera associated belong mulitple families, prominently including families Christensenellaceae, Lachnospiraceae, Ruminococcaceae. In summary, results show that are linked this association generalizes Moreover, suggest may partly explain parallel disparities depression.

Abstract The role of microbiota in health and diseases is being highlighted by numerous studies since its discovery. Depending on the localized regions, can be classified into gut, oral, respiratory, skin microbiota. microbial communities are symbiosis with host, contributing to homeostasis regulating immune function. However, dysbiosis lead dysregulation bodily functions including cardiovascular (CVDs), cancers, respiratory diseases, etc. In this review, we discuss current knowledge how links host or pathogenesis. We first summarize research healthy conditions, gut-brain axis, colonization resistance modulation. Then, highlight pathogenesis disease development progression, primarily associated community composition, modulation response, induction chronic inflammation. Finally, introduce clinical approaches that utilize for treatment, such as fecal transplantation.

Virtually all plants and animals, including humans, are home to symbiotic microorganisms. Symbiotic interactions can be neutral, harmful or have beneficial effects on the host organism. However, growing evidence suggests that microbial symbionts evolve rapidly, resulting in drastic transitions along parasite–mutualist continuum. In this Review, we integrate theoretical empirical findings discuss mechanisms underpinning these evolutionary shifts, as well ecological drivers why some host–microorganism may stuck at end of addition having biomedical consequences, understanding dynamic life microorganisms reveals how symbioses shape an organism's biology entire community, particularly a changing world. for organisms.

The human gut microbiome plays an important role in resisting colonization of the host by pathogens, but we lack ability to predict which communities will be protective. We studied how bacteria influence two major bacterial both vitro and gnotobiotic mice. Whereas single species alone had negligible effects, resistance greatly increased with community diversity. Moreover, this community-level rested critically upon certain being present. explained these ecological patterns through collective resistant consume nutrients that overlap those used pathogen. Furthermore, applied our findings successfully resist a novel target strain. Our work provides reason why diversity is beneficial suggests route for rational design pathogen-resistant communities.

Gut microbes and their metabolites are actively involved in the development regulation of host immunity, which can influence disease susceptibility. Herein, we review most recent research advancements gut microbiota–immune axis. We discuss detail how microbiota is a tipping point for neonatal immune as indicated by newly uncovered phenomenon, such maternal imprinting, utero intestinal metabolome, weaning reaction. describe shapes both innate adaptive immunity with emphasis on short-chain fatty acids secondary bile acids. also comprehensively delineate disruption axis results immune-mediated diseases, gastrointestinal infections, inflammatory bowel cardiometabolic disorders (e.g., cardiovascular diabetes, hypertension), autoimmunity rheumatoid arthritis), hypersensitivity asthma allergies), psychological anxiety), cancer colorectal hepatic). further encompass role fecal transplantation, probiotics, prebiotics, dietary polyphenols reshaping therapeutic potential.

Humans and many other hosts establish a diverse community of beneficial microbes anew each generation. The order identity incoming symbionts is critical for health, but what determines the success assembly process remains poorly understood. Here we develop ecological theory to identify factors important microbial assembly. Our method maps out all feasible pathways given microbiome—with analogies mutational underlying fitness landscapes in evolutionary biology. Building these “assembly maps” reveals tradeoff at heart process. Ecological dependencies between members microbiota make predictable—and can provide metabolic benefits host—but may also create barriers This effect occurs because interdependent species fail when relies on colonize first. We support our predictions with published data from preterm infant microbiota, where find that dependence associated predictable arrival. models suggest overcome via mechanisms either promote uptake multiple symbiont one step or feed early colonizers. predicted importance host feeding supported by impacts breast milk human microbiome. conclude both microbe interactions are trajectory microbiome
