The gastrointestinal microbiota has an important role in human health, and there is increasing interest utilizing dietary approaches to modulate the composition metabolic function of microbial communities that colonize tract improve prevent or treat disease. One strategy for modulating consumption fiber prebiotics can be metabolized by microbes tract. Human alimentary enzymes are not able digest most complex carbohydrates plant polysaccharides. Instead, these polysaccharides which generate short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), including acetate, propionate, butyrate. This article reviews current knowledge impact prebiotic on microbiota, effects physiochemical properties carbohydrates, adequate intake treatment dosages, phenotypic responses related microbiota.

Significant interest in recent years has focused on gut microbiota-host interaction because accumulating evidence revealed that intestinal microbiota play an important role human health and disease, including cardiovascular diseases. Changes the composition of associated with referred to as dysbiosis, have been linked pathologies such atherosclerosis, hypertension, heart failure, chronic kidney obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus. In addition alterations composition, metabolic potential identified a contributing factor development Recent studies can elicit variety effects host. Indeed, microbiome functions like endocrine organ, generating bioactive metabolites, impact host physiology. Microbiota interact through many pathways, trimethylamine/trimethylamine

Microbial Hub Taxa Link Host and Abiotic Factors to Plant Microbiome Variation

Plant-associated microorganisms have been shown to critically affect host physiology and performance, suggesting that evolution ecology of plants animals can only be understood in a holobiont (host its associated organisms) context. Host-associated microbial community structures are affected by abiotic factors, increased attention is given the role microbiome interactions such as pathogen inhibition. However, little known about how these factors act on community, especially what microbe–microbe interaction dynamics play. We begun address this knowledge gap for phyllosphere microbiomes simultaneously studying three major groups Arabidopsis thaliana symbionts (bacteria, fungi oomycetes) using systems biology approach. evaluated multiple potential control: we sampled various wild A. populations at different times, performed field plantings with genotypes, implemented successive colonization experiments under lab conditions where genotype, was manipulated.

Human gut microbiome: hopes, threats and promises

The microbiome has received increasing attention over the last 15 years. Although gut microbes have been explored for several decades, investigations of role microorganisms that reside in human attracted much beyond classical infectious diseases. For example, numerous studies reported changes microbiota during not only obesity, diabetes, and liver diseases but also cancer even neurodegenerative is viewed as a potential source novel therapeutics. Between 2013 2017, number publications focusing on was, remarkably, 12 900, which represents four-fifths total 40 years investigated this topic.

Proton pump inhibitors affect the gut microbiome

Gut, Год журнала: 2015, Номер 65(5), С. 740 - 748

Опубликована: Дек. 9, 2015

Background and aims

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the top 10 most widely used drugs in world. PPI use has been associated with an increased risk of enteric infections, notably Clostridium difficile. The gut microbiome plays important role by resisting or promoting colonisation pathogens. In this study, we investigated influence on microbiome.

Methods

composition 1815 individuals, spanning three cohorts, was assessed tag sequencing 16S rRNA gene. difference microbiota users versus non-users analysed separately each cohort, followed a meta-analysis.

Results

211 participants were using PPIs at moment stool sampling. is significant decrease Shannon9s diversity changes 20% bacterial taxa (false discovery rate <0.05). Multiple oral bacteria over-represented faecal PPI-users, including genus Rothia (p=9.8×10⁻³⁸). observed increase bacteria: genera Enterococcus, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus potentially pathogenic species Escherichia coli.

Conclusions

differences between study consistently towards less healthy These line known that predispose to C. difficile infections can explain users. On population level, effects more prominent than antibiotics other commonly drugs.
