Direct and Indirect Methods for Studying Human Gut Microbiota by V. T. Ivashkin, O. S. Medvedev, E. A. Poluektova, A. V. Kudryavtseva, I. R. Bakhtogarimov, A. E. Karchevskaya

“…Gas biomarkers, i.e. hydrogen, methane and hydrogen sulphide, have been studied in more detail and are better understood as compared to other biomarkers of the gut microbiome composition and functionality. The main advantage of gas biomarkers is that they can be measured multiple times using non-invasive techniques. …”

New insights into microbial bile salt hydrolases: from physiological roles to potential applications by Zixing Dong, Shuangshuang Yang, Cunduo Tang, Dandan Li, Dandan Li, Yunchao Kan, Yunchao Kan, Lunguang Yao, Lunguang Yao

“…Bile acids (BAs), the major components of bile, are bidirectionally linked to intestinal microbiota, also known as the gut microbiome-BA metabolic axis. Gut microbiota-derived bile salt hydrolase (BSH, EC 3.5.1.24), which catalyzes the “gateway” reaction in a wider pathway of bile acid modification, not only shapes the bile acid landscape, but also modulates the crosstalk between gut microbiota and host health. …”

Can infectious omphalitis in piglets be clinically diagnosed during the first three days of life? by Sophie Amalie Blirup-Plum, Henrik Elvang Jensen, Katrine Top Hartmann, Søren Saxmose Nielsen, Karen Pankoke, Mette Sif Hansen, Ken Steen Pedersen, Inge Larsen, Jens Peter Nielsen, John Elmerdahl Olsen, Egle Kudirkiene, Thomas Hartig Braunstein, Kristiane Barington

“…In addition, animal welfare may be hampered in infected piglets due to lack of treatment and in healthy piglets due to the antimicrobial effect on the gut microbiome.…”

Lactobacillus fermentum B153 from human colostrum modulates intestinal immunity and gut microbiota in obese mice model by Juqing Huang, Xiaohui Cai, Xiaoyan Liu, Gongti Lai, Xuefang Guan, Bingyan Chen, Qi Wang

“…Furthermore, L. fermentum B153 significantly altered the gut microbiome composition of obese mice, characterized by a substantial increase in the relative abundance of the potentially beneficial genus Akkermansia and a notable decrease in the richness of potentially harmful bacteria (e.g., Lachnoclostridium, Romboutsia and Dubosiella). …”

Investigation of gut microbiota in pediatric patients with peanut allergy in outpatient settings by Shouming Li, Jingyi Huang, Yunyun Xie, Di Wang, Xin Tan, Yufan Wang

“…The observed shifts in microbial communities, particularly the increase in Proteobacteria and the decrease in beneficial bacteria such as Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, underscore the potential role of the gut microbiome in the pathogenesis of peanut allergy. …”

Profiling the response of individual gut microbes to free fatty acids (FFAs) found in human milk by Megan E. Waller, Alyssa Gutierrez, Taylor D. Ticer, Janiece S. Glover, John E. Baatz, Carol L. Wagner, Melinda A. Engevik, Katherine E. Chetta

“…Human milk can improve the composition of the neonatal gut microbiome by supporting commensal species. Milk free fatty acids (FFAs) provide nutritional energy, participate in endogenous signaling, and exert antimicrobial effects. …”

Exposure to triphenyl phosphate during pregnancy: The role of gut-bile acids-liver axis on lipid metabolism in male offspring by Juntong Lin, Fuhui Yan, Longhui Liu, Ganzhong Liao, Yilei Xu, Qian Liu, Miaoliang Wu, Honghui Guo, Bai Zhi, Lianxian Guo, Xiaoshan Liu

“…The expression of lipid metabolism-related genes was significantly changed in the liver and adipose tissue. The gut microbiome of male offspring was also altered, with different profiles between the low and high dose treatment group. …”

Bifidobacterium fermentation with infant formulas is associated with benefits for gut and brain barrier function by Emily G. Knox, Paula Sánchez-Díaz, Colin Buttimer, Sarah-Jane Leigh, Klara Vlckova, Colin Hill, Elaine Kennedy, Jonathan O’Regan, Seamus McSweeney, David Goulding, Maria Rodriguez Aburto, Caitriona M. O’Driscoll, John F. Cryan, Eoin Gunnigle, Gerard Clarke

“…Bifidobacterium is the predominant bacteria in the infant gut microbiome. Here, we evaluated the impact of four infant formulas fermented with three Bifidobacterium strains, originally isolated from infant stool, on gut and BBB integrity. …”
