TLDR
Gut microbes, through generation of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), directly contribute to platelet hyperreactivity and enhanced thrombosis potential, revealing a previously unrecognized mechanistic link between specific dietary nutrients, gut microbes, platelet function, and thromBosis risk.About:

TL;DR: It is posited that in the setting of the compromised gut mucosal barrier, the phyla Firmicutes generates TNF-α - driven systemic inflammation, leading to RIF, whereas an overload of Gram-negative bacteria induces IL-6-driven systemic inflammation), leading to UE.

Does the gut microbiome mediate antipsychotic-induced metabolic side effects in schizophrenia?
TL;DR: This narrative review presents evidence from clinical and preclinical studies exploring the relationship between the gut microbiome, schizophrenia, second-generation antipsychotics, and antipsychotic-induced side-effects and covers evidence for psychobiotic treatment as a potential supplementary therapy for people with schizophrenia.

An obesity-associated gut microbiome with increased capacity for energy harvest
Peter J. Turnbaugh,Ruth E. Ley,Michael A. Mahowald,Vincent Magrini,Elaine R. Mardis,Jeffrey I. Gordon +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated through metagenomic and biochemical analyses that changes in the relative abundance of the Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes affect the metabolic potential of the mouse gut microbiota and indicates that the obese microbiome has an increased capacity to harvest energy from the diet.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that conventionalization of adult germ-free C57BL/6 mice with a normal microbiota harvested from the distal intestine (cecum) of conventionally raised animals produces a 60% increase in body fat content and insulin resistance within 14 days despite reduced food intake.

TL;DR: Discovery of a relationship between gut-flora-dependent metabolism of dietary phosphatidylcholine and CVD pathogenesis provides opportunities for the development of new diagnostic tests and therapeutic approaches for atherosclerotic heart disease.

Wu,James D. Lewis,Manya Warrier,J. Mark Brown,Ronald M. Krauss,W.H. Wilson Tang,Frederic D. Bushman,Aldons J. Lusis,Stanley L. Hazen +22 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that metabolism by intestinal microbiota of dietary l-carnitine, a trimethylamine abundant in red meat, also produces TMAO and accelerates atherosclerosis in mice, and intestinal microbiota may contribute to the well-established link between high levels of red meat consumption and CVD risk.

Intestinal Microbial Metabolism of Phosphatidylcholine and Cardiovascular Risk

TL;DR: The production of TMAO from dietary phosphatidylcholine is dependent on metabolism by the intestinal microbiota and increased levels are associated with an increased risk of incident major adverse cardiovascular events.
