Colonic bacterial composition in Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: It is shown that Parkinson's disease (PD) patients have alpha‐synuclein aggregation in their colon with evidence of colonic inflammation, and dysbiosis might be the mechanism of neuroinflammation that leads to α‐Syn misfolding and PD pathology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crosstalk between Gut Microbiota and Dietary Lipids Aggravates WAT Inflammation through TLR Signaling

TL;DR: It is shown that mice fed lard for 11 weeks have increased Toll-like receptor activation and WAT inflammation and reduced insulin sensitivity compared with mice fed fish oil and that phenotypic differences between the dietary groups can be partly attributed to differences in microbiota composition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prebiotics: Definition, Types, Sources, Mechanisms, and Clinical Applications

TL;DR: Health benefits of prebiotics and their safety, as well as their production and storage advantages compared to probiotics, they seem to be fascinating candidates for promoting human health condition as a replacement or in association with probiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Controversial Role of Human Gut Lachnospiraceae.

TL;DR: Changes in Lachnospiraceae abundances according to health and disease are discussed and how nutrients from the host diet can influence their growth and how their metabolites can, in turn, influence host physiology are analyzed.

A comparative in vitro investigation into the effects of cooked meats on the human faecal microbiota.

TL;DR: Interactions between ingested cooked meats and the gut microbiota may represent a novel corollary to mechanisms underlying the observed increased risk of intestinal and systemic diseases associated with high intake of certain meats/processed meats.
Journal ArticleDOI

13C tracer recovery in human stools after digestion of a fat‐rich meal labelled with [1,1,1‐13C3]tripalmitin and [1,1,1‐13C3]triolein

TL;DR: The results confirm that the assessment of faecal elimination is of great importance when establishing total lipid distribution during the postprandial period and validate the analysis of cumulative tracer loss during 72 h post-tracer ingestion.

N-nitrosamine formation by intestinal bacteria.

TL;DR: The theory of enzymatic catalysis of N-nitrosamine formation by microorganisms is supported and the possibility of endogenous nitrosation in the digestive tract is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

What is dietary fibre

TL;DR: Recent studies in humans have shown that the sites, rate and extent of starch digestion may be of equal importance to those of dietary fibre in explaining the aetiology and epidemiology of ‘Western’ diseases.
