The Effect of ß-Glucan Prebiotic on Kidney Function, Uremic Toxins and Gut Microbiome in Stage 3 to 5 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Predialysis Participants: A Randomized Controlled Trial

TL;DR: The ß-glucan prebiotic significantly altered uremic toxin levels of intestinal origin and favorably affected the gut microbiome in stage 3 to 5 CKD participants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation of wheat bran-colonizing and metabolizing species from the human fecal microbiota.

TL;DR: A comparison with 16S rRNA gene sequences that were found enriched on wheat bran particles in previous studies showed that the isolates do not yet cover the entire diversity of wheat-bran colonizing species, comprising among others a broad range of Prevotella, Bacteroides and Clostridium cluster XIVa species.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro ecology: a discovery engine for microbiome therapies.

TL;DR: To therapeutically modulate gut microbial ecosystems, a better understanding of gut ecology is key and high-throughput in vitro ecology provides a tool with the necessary power to address these needs and interpersonal treatment response variation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gut Microbiome Profiling Uncovers a Lower Abundance of Butyricicoccus in Advanced Stages of Chronic Kidney Disease

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assessed whether the gut microbial composition varies among patients in different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and quantified uremic metabolites by UPLC/fluorescence detection and microbial profiling by 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing.
