Microbial endocrinology : interkingdom signaling in infectious disease and health

TL;DR: This work focuses on the role of stress-related modulation of upper and lower respiratory tract infections and the roles of catecholamine stress hormones and epinephrine/norepinephrine/autoinducer-3 inter-kingdom signaling system in Escherichia coli.

Microbial nitrogen limitation in the mammalian large intestine.

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that microbiota occupy a habitat that is limited in total nitrogen supply within the large intestines of 30 mammal species, and it is speculated that this resource limitation could enable hosts to regulate microbial communities in the large intestine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diet-Gut Microbiota Interactions and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM)

TL;DR: The available data was analyzed, the current knowledge about diet manipulation in order to shape the gut microbiota in pregnancy was discussed, and the potential effects on maternal and consequently neonatal health were discussed.

Novel Polyfermentor Intestinal Model (PolyFermS) for Controlled Ecological Studies: Validation and Effect of pH

TL;DR: The data showed that the PolyFermS model allows the stable cultivation of complex intestinal microbiota akin to the fecal donor and can be developed for the direct comparison of different experimental conditions in parallel reactors continuously inoculated with the exact same microbiota.

Diversity of the human intestinal microbial flora.

TL;DR: A majority of the bacterial sequences corresponded to uncultivated species and novel microorganisms, and significant intersubject variability and differences between stool and mucosa community composition were discovered.

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.
