Journal ArticleDOI
The Human Gut Microbiome: From Association to Modulation
TL;DR: The type of studies that will be essential for translating microbiome research into targeted modulations with dedicated benefits for the human host are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial abundance, activity and population genomic profiling with mOTUs2
Alessio Milanese,Daniel R. Mende,Lucas Paoli,Guillem Salazar,Hans-Joachim Ruscheweyh,Miguelangel Cuenca,Pascal Hingamp,Renato J. Alves,Paul I. Costea,Luis Pedro Coelho,Thomas Schmidt,Alexandre Almeida,Alex L. Mitchell,Robert D. Finn,Jaime Huerta-Cepas,Peer Bork,Georg Zeller,Shinichi Sunagawa +17 more
TL;DR: mOTUs2, an updated and functionally extended profiling tool for microbial abundance, activity and population profiling, shows that mOTUs, which are based on essential housekeeping genes, are demonstrably well-suited for quantification of basal transcriptional activity of community members.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extensive transmission of microbes along the gastrointestinal tract.

TL;DR: Evidence is found for a vast majority of oral species to be transferable, with increased levels of transmission in colorectal cancer and rheumatoid arthritis patients and, more generally, for species described as opportunistic pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic multi-step screening of numerous salt hydrates for low temperature thermochemical energy storage
TL;DR: In this article, the potential energy storage density and the storage efficiency of salt hydrates as thermochemical storage materials for the storage of heat generated by a micro-combined heat and power (micro-CHP) have been assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Similarity of the dog and human gut microbiomes in gene content and response to diet
Luis Pedro Coelho,Jens Roat Kultima,Paul I. Costea,Coralie Fournier,Yuanlong Pan,Gail Czarnecki-Maulden,Matthew R. Hayward,Sofia K. Forslund,Thomas Schmidt,Patrick Descombes,Janet R. Jackson,Qinghong Li,Peer Bork,Peer Bork +13 more
TL;DR: Findings in dogs may be predictive of human microbiome results, and a novel finding is that overweight or obese dogs experience larger compositional shifts than lean dogs in response to a high-protein diet.
