Role of the Microbiota in Immunity and Inflammation

TL;DR: In high-income countries, overuse of antibiotics, changes in diet, and elimination of constitutive partners, such as nematodes, may have selected for a microbiota that lack the resilience and diversity required to establish balanced immune responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteobacteria: Microbial signature of dysbiosis in gut microbiota

TL;DR: This work reviews studies that explored the association between an abnormal expansion of Proteobacteria and a compromised ability to maintain a balanced gut microbial community and proposes that an increased prevalence of ProTeobacteria is a potential diagnostic signature of dysbiosis and risk of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Control of pathogens and pathobionts by the gut microbiota.

TL;DR: The mechanisms that regulate the ability of the microbiota to restrain pathogen growth are complex and include competitive metabolic interactions, localization to intestinal niches and induction of host immune responses.

Analysis of the Genome Structure of the Nonpathogenic Probiotic Escherichia coli Strain Nissle 1917

TL;DR: This strain's genome structure has been analyzed by sequence context screening of tRNA genes as a potential indication of chromosomal integration of horizontally acquired DNA, sequence analysis of 280 kb of genomic islands (GEIs) coding for important fitness factors, and comparison of Nissle 1917 genome content with that of other E. coli strains by DNA-DNA hybridization.

Methionine oxidation by reactive oxygen species: reaction mechanisms and relevance to Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: Detailed mechanistic schemes for the reactions of various prominent, biologically relevant ROS with methionine and organic model sulfides are provided, characterizing the physico-chemical parameters, which control this mechanism, and its physiological relevance, specifically for the oxidation and neurotoxicity of the Alzheimer's disease beta-amyloid peptide (betaAP).

Greatly increased luminal nitric oxide in ulcerative colitis

TL;DR: A role for nitric oxide in ulcerative colitis has been suggested and luminal NO is rapidly and easily measurable and may be used to monitor inflammatory bowel disease.

Shift towards pro-inflammatory intestinal bacteria aggravates acute murine colitis via Toll-like receptors 2 and 4.

TL;DR: DSS-induced colitis is characterized by a shift in the intestinal microflora towards pro-inflammatory Gram-negative bacteria and may serve as a biomarker for colitis severity and DSS- induced barrier damage seems to be a valuable model to further identify bacterial factors involved in maintaining intestinal homeostasis and to test therapeutic interventions based upon anti-TLR strategies.
