Microbial communities in the colon have a profound effect on host physiology, including immune function, inter-organ communication, and metabolism1. The majority of studies in humans have correlated the gut microbiota’s composition, gene expression, and metabolism with human health endpoints such as ...
2,3,4,5,6]. The microbiome is associated with human health, either directly through the effect of microbes on disease [7,8,9,10], or indirectly through interaction with different systems of the human host [9,10,11,12,13]. However, the most extensive interaction with the host is ...
The interaction between the gut microbiota and the host has significant effects on the host's health and disease status. However, although there have been many studies investigating the pig gut microbiota, the findings have been inconsistent due to variations in rearing conditions...
inducing symptoms characteristic of liver disease, insulin resistance, osteopenia, and myopathy. Although these physiological responses can involve the microbiome on Earth, host-microbiota interactions during spaceflight are still being elucidated. We explore murine gut microbiota and host gene expression...
摘要:Accumulating evidence suggests that the bile acid regulates type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) through gut microbiota-host interactions. However, the mechanisms underlying such interactions have been unclear. Here, we found that glycoursodeoxycholi...
The genotype of invertebrate hosts can be complemented by the genomes of microorganisms living on or within the host ('microbiota'). We investigated whether the bacterial gut microbiota of bumble bees (Bombus terrestris) can account for the specificity of interactions between individuals from different...
Gut microbiota can be transmitted either environmentally or socially and vertically at intraspecific level; however, whether gut microbiota interact along trophic levels has been largely overlooked. Here, we characterized the gut bacterial communities of weevil larvae ofCurculio arakawaithat infest acorns ...
Recently, there have been an increasing number of studies which have investigated the interaction between the gut microbiota and herbal medicines. We have found that interactions between the gut microbiota and herbal medicines occur primarily through two pathways. One pathway is that the gut microbiota...
Introduction The gastrointestinal tract is inhabited by a very diverse and dense symbiotic microbiota, the composition of which is the product of the long-term host-microbe co-evolution and co-adaptation. This tight integration results in intense crosstalk and signalling between the host and microbiota...
Gut microbiota play a critical role in orchestrating metabolic homeostasis of the host. However, the crosstalk between host and microbial symbionts in small mammals are rarely illustrated. We used male Brandt’s voles (Lasiopodomys brandtii) to test the hypothesis that gut microbiota and host neuro...
