The gut microbiota mediates the neuroprotective effect of melatonin in neuroinflammation and memory impairment induced by SD To test whether the neuroprotective effect of Mel on memory impairment induced by SD depends on the gut microbiota, we transplanted fecal microbiota from CON, SD, or SD +...
In parallel, the gut microbiome is emerging as a potentially important determinant of human health, but little is known about its broader environmental and social determinants. We test the association between gut microbiota composition and individual- and area-level socioeconomic factors in a well-...

(Fig.6), which represents the pathogenic agent integrated within its biotic environment, was established and applied to multiple pathosystems [141]. This approach suggests that microbial diversity is a key factor in preventing diseases in plants [23] as well as in the human gut [142]. Despite...
Analysis of the structure and function of gut microbiome in Himalayan Griffons is a key step to test our hypothesis. While, due to the difficulty of collecting samples from wild Himalayan Griffons, this part of the research is still limited. In this study, culture-independent method, using ...
The gut microbiome is the term given to describe the vast collection of symbiotic microorganisms in the human gastrointestinal system and their collective interacting genomes. Recent studies have suggested that the gut microbiome performs numerous import
Symbiotic gut microbes have a rich genomic and metabolic pool and are closely related to hosts’ health. Traditional sequencing profiling masks the genomic and phenotypic diversity among strains from the same species. Innovative droplet-based microfluidic cultivation may help to elucidate the inter-strain...
Elucidating the ecological and biological identity of extrachromosomal mobile genetic elements (eMGEs), such as plasmids and bacteriophages, in the human gut remains challenging due to their high complexity and diversity. Here, we show efficient identifi
The gut microbiome has been implicated in cancer in several ways, as specific microbial signatures are known to promote cancer development and influence safety, tolerability and efficacy of therapies. The ‘omics’ technologies used for microbiome analysis continuously evolve and, although much of the ...
