Lactobacillus plantarum DR7 Modulated Bowel Movement and Gut Microbiota Associated with Dopamine and Serotonin Pathways in Stressed Adults.

TL;DR: The present data showed that physiological changes induced by L. plantarum DR7 could be associated with changes in specific taxa of the gut microbiota along the serotonin and dopamine pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Celastrol in metabolic diseases: Progress and application prospects.

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic review of the mechanism of action and therapeutic properties of celastrol in various metabolic diseases and complications is presented, and potential research strategies might contribute to the Celastrol's clinical application in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacterial Microbiota and Fatty Acids in the Faeces of Overweight and Obese Children.

TL;DR: Obesity was associated with intestinal dysbiosis and a predominance of phylum Firmicutes and stool of obese children contained lower amounts of SCFAs, and differences were significant only in obese children, not in overweight children in comparison with the lean ones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dysbiosis of intestinal microbiota induced by dietary oxidized fish oil and recovery of diet-induced dysbiosis via taurine supplementation in rice field eel (Monopterus albus)

TL;DR: The results suggested that the oxidized fish oil diet could disturb the stability of microbial community and cause microbial dysfunctions, whereas taurine supplementation helped the intestinal microbiota homeostasis and restored its function.

An obesity-associated gut microbiome with increased capacity for energy harvest

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.

Adipose expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha: direct role in obesity-linked insulin resistance

TL;DR: A role for TNF-alpha in obesity and particularly in the insulin resistance and diabetes that often accompany obesity is indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A core gut microbiome in obese and lean twins

TL;DR: The faecal microbial communities of adult female monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs concordant for leanness or obesity, and their mothers are characterized to address how host genotype, environmental exposure and host adiposity influence the gut microbiome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic endotoxemia initiates obesity and insulin resistance

TL;DR: It is concluded that the LPS/CD14 system sets the tone of insulin sensitivity and the onset of diabetes and obesity and lowering plasma LPS concentration could be a potent strategy for the control of metabolic diseases.
