Journal ArticleDOI
Human Gut Microbiome and Risk for Colorectal Cancer
Jiyoung Ahn,Rashmi Sinha,Zhiheng Pei,Christine Dominianni,Jing Wu,Jianxin Shi,James J. Goedert,Richard B. Hayes,Liying Yang +8 more
TL;DR: It is found that CRC case subjects had decreased overall microbial community diversity and lower relative abundance of Clostridia and increased carriage of Fusobacterium were found in case subjects compared with control subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial biota in the human distal esophagus
TL;DR: Findings provide evidence for a complex but conserved bacterial population in the normal distal esophagus and most SLOTU of esophageal biota are similar or identical to residents of the upstream oral biota, but the major distinction is that a large majority (82%) of the esoph age bacteria are known and cultivable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inflammation and intestinal metaplasia of the distal esophagus are associated with alterations in the microbiome
Liying Yang,Xiaohua Lu,Carlos W. Nossa,Fritz Francois,Fritz Francois,Richard M. Peek,Zhiheng Pei,Zhiheng Pei +7 more
TL;DR: In the human distal esophagus, inflammation and intestinal metaplasia are associated with global alteration of the microbiome, raising the issue of a possible role for dysbiosis in the pathogenesis of reflux-related disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cigarette smoking and the oral microbiome in a large study of American adults.

TL;DR: In a study of 1204 US adults, this article assessed the relationship of cigarette smoking with the oral microbiome and found that current smokers had lower relative abundance of the phylum Proteobacteria (4.6%) compared with never smokers (11.7%) with no difference between former and never smokers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design of 16S rRNA gene primers for 454 pyrosequencing of the human foregut microbiome

TL;DR: In this article, a foregut microbiome dataset was constructed using 16S rRNA gene sequences obtained from oral, esophageal, and gastric microbiomes produced by Sanger sequencing.
