Gut Microbiome Metagenomics Analysis Suggests a Functional Model for the Development of Autoimmunity for Type 1 Diabetes

TL;DR: Detailed differences in metabolic potential indicate that autoimmune subjects have a functionally aberrant microbiome, and data suggest that a consortium of lactate- and butyrate-producing bacteria in a healthy gut induce a sufficient amount of mucin synthesis to maintain gut integrity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Culture-independent identification of gut bacteria correlated with the onset of diabetes in a rat model.

TL;DR: Bacteria associated with the onset of type 1 diabetes in a rat model system were identified and changes are caused by diabetes or are involved in the development of the disease is unknown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Weight-loss interventions and gut microbiota changes in overweight and obese patients: a systematic review.

TL;DR: Results show that restrictive diets and bariatric surgery reduce microbial abundance and promote changes in microbial composition that could have long‐term detrimental effects on the colon, in contrast, prebiotics might restore a healthy microbiome and reduce body fat.
Journal ArticleDOI

PANGEA: pipeline for analysis of next generation amplicons.

TL;DR: The workflow described here allows the investigator to quickly assess libraries of sequences on personal computers with customized databases by processing sequences obtained directly from the sequencer to provide the files needed for sequence identification by BLAST and for comparison of microbial communities.
