SCFA Producing Gut Microbiota and its Effects on the Epigenetic Regulation of Inflammation

TL;DR: Complex carbohydrates are microbial fermented by saccharolytic bacteria in the human gastrointestinal tract, resulting in the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which are considered to affect inflammation and chronic diseases.

Disparity of Gut Microbiota Composition Among Elite Athletes and Young Adults With Different Physical Activity Independent of Dietary Status: A Matching Study

TL;DR: It is indicated that physically inactive young adults are more likely to have a lower immune function and a higher abundance of pro-inflammatory gut bacteria than elite athletes and physically active young adults.

Differences in the gut microbiota between Cercopithecinae and Colobinae in captivity

TL;DR: Through a comparative analysis of operational taxonomic units (OTUs), significant differences in the diversity and composition of gut microbiota were observed between Cercopithecinae and Colobinae, and this study may provide useful insight into animal management practices and primate conservation.

Pine (Pinus massoniana Lamb.) Needle Extract Supplementation Improves Performance, Egg Quality, Serum Parameters, and the Gut Microbiome in Laying Hens

TL;DR: In this paper , the effects of Masson pine needle extract (PNE) on performance, egg quality, serum parameters, and the gut microbiome in laying hens were investigated, and a total of 60 healthy 50-week-old Peking Pink laying heens with similar body conditions and egg production were randomly divided into the control (CON) (0 mg/kg PNE), PNE100 (100 mg/ kg PNE).

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.
