Journal ArticleDOI
Faecalibacterium prausnitzii : from microbiology to diagnostics and prognostics
TL;DR: This species may be a useful potential biomarker to assist in ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease discrimination and its application as a biomarker for diagnostics and prognostics of gut diseases are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular diversity of Escherichia coli in the human gut: new ecological evidence supporting the role of adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC) in Crohn's disease.
Margarita Martinez-Medina,Xavier Aldeguer,Mireia Lopez-Siles,Ferrán González-Huix,Carles López-Oliu,Ghizlane Dahbi,Jesús E. Blanco,Jorge Blanco,L. Jesús Garcia-Gil,Arlette Darfeuille-Michaud +9 more
TL;DR: The richness, abundance, diversity, and pathogenic features of E. coli and AIEC strains that colonize the intestinal mucosa are described and new data about ecological parameters of AIEC reinforces the implication ofAIEC in CD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cultured Representatives of Two Major Phylogroups of Human Colonic Faecalibacterium prausnitzii Can Utilize Pectin, Uronic Acids, and Host-Derived Substrates for Growth
Mireia Lopez-Siles,Tanweer M. Khan,Sylvia H. Duncan,Hermie J. M. Harmsen,L. Jesús Garcia-Gil,Harry J. Flint +5 more
TL;DR: Many F. prausnitzii isolates were able to utilize uronic acids for growth, an ability previously thought to be confined to Bacteroides spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abnormal microbiota composition in the ileocolonic mucosa of Crohn's disease patients as revealed by polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis.
TL;DR: It is postulate that individuals who are predisposed to CD are less able to regulate the microbial makeup of their intestines, which leads to an unstable microbial population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alterations in the Abundance and Co-occurrence of Akkermansia muciniphila and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii in the Colonic Mucosa of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Subjects.
Mireia Lopez-Siles,Núria Enrich-Capó,Xavier Aldeguer,Miriam Sabat-Mir,Sylvia H. Duncan,L. Jesús Garcia-Gil,Margarita Martinez-Medina +6 more
TL;DR: It is revealed that co-occurrence of both species differs between disease status, and IBD patients featured a reduction of F. prausnitzii but similar loads of A. muciniphila when compared to H subjects, with the exception of those with early onset CD.
