Journal ArticleDOI

The Gut Microbiota of Marine Fish.

TL;DR: The factors shaping marine fish gut microbiota are reviewed and gaps in the research are highlighted and a clear understanding of the role that specific gut microbiota play is still lacking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Replacing fishmeal with plant protein in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) diets by supplementation with fish protein hydrolysate

TL;DR: Plant protein significantly altered gut microbial composition, significantly decreasing α-diversity and spirochaetes and the families Moritellaceae, Psychromonadaceae, Helicobacteraceae and Bacteroidaceae were all found at significantly lower abundances in the groups fed 80% plant protein diets compared to the control fishmeal diet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of protein hydrolysates from blue whiting (Micromesistius poutassou) and their application in beverage fortification.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that commercial enzymes are useful for the extraction and alteration of fish protein from a low value source to produce highly digestible, low molecular weight peptide powders that could be used as a fortifying health ingredient, especially in beverages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyphenols selectively reverse early-life stress-induced behavioural, neurochemical and microbiota changes in the rat.

TL;DR: It is suggested that naturally-derived polyphenols exert antidepressant-like effects in MS rats, which mechanisms could be potentially mediated by HPA regulation, BDNF levels rescue and modulation of the microbiota-gut-brain axis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigating the potential of fish oil as a nutraceutical in an animal model of early life stress

TL;DR: The results of this study provide a further advancement into the understanding of some of the complex systems within which nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals effect the microbiota-gut-brain axis.
