TL;DR: Current associations between IBD and dysbiosis are summarized, the role of the gut microbiota in the context of specific animal models of colitis is described, and the potential role of microbiota-focused interventions in the treatment of human IBD is discussed.

TL;DR: A radial gradient of microbes linked to the distribution of oxygen and nutrients provided by host tissue is observed in an analysis of intestinal microbiota of mice and human beings.

TL;DR: Dietary therapy had independent and rapid effects on microbiota composition distinct from other stressor-induced changes and effectively reduced inflammation and shed light on Crohn disease treatments.

TL;DR: How diet affects the structure and metabolome of the human intestinal microbiome and may contribute to health or the pathogenesis of disorders such as coronary vascular disease and inflammatory bowel disease is reviewed.

TL;DR: High consumption of fermentable substrate in vegans was not associated with higher levels of faecal short chain fatty acids, a finding confirmed in a 10-day controlled feeding experiment, and residence in globally distinct societies helps determine the composition of the gut microbiota that influences the production of diet-dependent gut microbial metabolites.
