Journal ArticleDOI
Butyrate-producing Clostridium cluster XIVa species specifically colonize mucins in an in vitro gut model.

TL;DR: Simulating the mucosal gut microbiota represents a breakthrough in modeling and mechanistically studying the human intestinal microbiome in health and disease and may enhance butyrate bioavailability, which could be useful in treating diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial Community Development in a Dynamic Gut Model Is Reproducible, Colon Region Specific, and Selective for Bacteroidetes and Clostridium Cluster IX
Pieter Van den Abbeele,Charlotte Grootaert,Massimo Marzorati,Sam Possemiers,Willy Verstraete,Philippe Gérard,Sylvie Rabot,Aurélia Bruneau,Sahar El Aidy,Muriel Derrien,Erwin G. Zoetendal,Michiel Kleerebezem,Hauke Smidt,Tom Van de Wiele +13 more
TL;DR: High-resolution analysis of in vitro-cultured gut microbiota offers new insight on the microbial colonization process and indicates the importance of digestive parameters that may be crucial in the development of new in vitro models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic microbial ecosystems: an exciting tool to understand and apply microbial communities.
TL;DR: Why and how synthetic microbial communities are applied for research purposes and for which applications they have been and could be successfully used are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The host selects mucosal and luminal associations of coevolved gut microorganisms: a novel concept
TL;DR: It is proposed that the intestinal microorganisms also coevolved with each other, leading to coherently organized, resilient microbial associations, which might explain the remarkable temporal stability of microbial communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arabinoxylans and inulin differentially modulate the mucosal and luminal gut microbiota and mucin-degradation in humanized rats
Pieter Van den Abbeele,Philippe Gérard,Sylvie Rabot,Aurélia Bruneau,Sahar El Aidy,Muriel Derrien,Michiel Kleerebezem,Erwin G. Zoetendal,Hauke Smidt,Willy Verstraete,Tom Van de Wiele,Sam Possemiers +11 more
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that next to IN, LC-AX are promising prebiotic compounds by stimulating production of health-promoting metabolites by specific microbes in the proximal regions, so that prebiotics may potentially improve gut health along the entire length of the intestine.
