Inflammation in Children with CKD Linked to Gut Dysbiosis and Metabolite Imbalance

TL;DR: In this article , the authors analyzed the fecal microbiome, metabolites, and immune phenotypes in 48 children (with normal kidney function, CKD stage G3-G4, G5 treated by hemodialysis [HD], or kidney transplantation) with a mean±SD age of 10.6±3.8 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in the Mucosa-Associated Microbiome and Transcriptome across Gut Segments Are Associated with Obesity in a Metabolic Syndrome Porcine Model

TL;DR: Dysbiosis of mucosal microbiota along the entire digestive tract play a critical role in the proinflammatory response in the host-microbial metabolism axis, resulting in obesity and related metabolic disorders in the MetS model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crohn’s disease in endoscopic remission, obesity, and cases of high genetic risk demonstrates overlapping shifts in the colonic mucosal-luminal interface microbiome

TL;DR: In this article , the authors used lavage sampling to characterize the colonic mucosal-luminal interface (MLI) microbiome of Crohn's disease patients in endoscopic remission and unaffected controls relative to obesity, disease genetics, and phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Chronic Exposure to Microcystin-LR on the Gut Microbiota of Male Mice.

TL;DR: The results showed that significant changes of species diversity were observed in the gut microbiota of MC-LR-exposed mice, and comparative analysis of the microbial communities showed that the reduction of the Actinobacteria and Saccharibacteria populations was detected in MC- LR-exp exposed mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dose-response association of early-life antibiotic exposure and subsequent overweight or obesity in children: A meta-analysis of prospective studies

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the dose-response relationship between antibiotic exposure in early life and the risk of subsequent overweight or obesity and found that there was a logarithmic-curve relationship between early-life antibiotic exposure and subsequent overweight and obesity.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
