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
Molecular analysis of human forearm superficial skin bacterial biota
TL;DR: The results show that the bacterial biota in normal superficial skin is highly diverse, with few well conserved and well represented genera, but otherwise low-level interpersonal consensus.
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
Substantial alterations of the cutaneous bacterial biota in psoriatic lesions.
Zhan Gao,Chi-Hong Tseng,Bruce Strober,Zhiheng Pei,Zhiheng Pei,Martin J. Blaser,Martin J. Blaser +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that psoriasis is associated with substantial alteration in the composition and representation of the cutaneous bacterial biota.
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.
