However, data on healthy microbiomes are not sufficient. To determine the nature of the core microbiome, the oral-microbiome structure was analyzed using pyrosequencing data. Saliva samples were obtained from healthy 90-year-old participants who attended the 20-year follow-up Niigata cohort study. A total of 85 people participated in the health checkups. The study population consisted of 40 male and 45 female participants. Stimulated saliva samples were obtained by chewing paraffin wax for 5 min. The V3–V4 hypervariable regions of the 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene were amplified by PCR.

Received: 15 April 2011; in revised form: 19 May 2011 / Accepted: 24 May 2011 / Published: 3 June 2011 Abstract: Systemic and local inflammation in relation to the resident microbiota of the human gastro-intestinal (GI) tract and administration of probiotics are the main themes of the present review. The dominating taxa of the human GI tract and their potential for aggravating or suppressing inflammation are described. The review focuses on human trials with probiotics and does not include in vitro studies and animal experimental models. The applications of probiotics considered are systemic immune-modulation, the metabolic syndrome, liver injury, inflammatory bowel disease, colorectal cancer and radiation-induced enteritis. When the major genomic differences between different types of probiotics are taken into account, it is to be expected that the human body can respond differently to the different species and strains of probiotics. This fact is often neglected in discussions of the outcome of clinical trials with probiotics. Keywords: probiotics; inflammation; gut microbiota 1. Inflammation Inflammation is a defence reaction of the body against injury. The word inflammation originates from the Latin word ―inflammatio‖ which means fire, and traditionally inflammation is characterised by redness, swelling, pain, heat and impaired body functions.

  • Diarrhea Caused by Enterococcus Villorum in Piglets

Enterococcal bacteria were isolated and multilocus sequence analysis showed 100% and 99% identity with the phenylalanyl tRNA synthase and RNA polymerase α subunit genes of strains of Enterococcus villorum, respectively. Histologically, severe epithelial desquamation, atrophy, and regeneration of ileal villi were observed in cases 1, 2 and 3, respectively. The number of bacteria was large in case 1, smaller in case 2, and sparse in case 3. These findings suggest that case 1 was at an earlier stage of enteropathy than case 2, and that case 3 was recovering. In case 1, the exfoliation of epithelial cells with many bacteria into the intestinal lumen was interpreted as a host reaction for eradicating marginally pathogenic enteroadherent bacteria.

  • Evidence for Persistent and Shared Bacterial Strains Against a Background of Largely Unique Gut Colonization in Hospitalized Premature Infants
    The ISME Journal (2016) 10, 2817–2830 © 2016 International Society for Microbial Ecology All rights reserved 1751-7362/16 www.nature.com/ismej ORIGINAL ARTICLE Evidence for persistent and shared bacterial strains against a background of largely unique gut colonization in hospitalized premature infants Tali Raveh-Sadka1, Brian Firek2, Itai Sharon1, Robyn Baker3, Christopher T Brown1, Brian C Thomas1, Michael J Morowitz2 and Jillian F Banfield1 1Department of Earth and Planetary Science, UC Berkeley, Berkeley, CA, USA; 2Department of Surgery, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA, USA and 3Department of Pediatrics, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA, USA The potentially critical stage of initial gut colonization in premature infants occurs in the hospital environment, where infants are exposed to a variety of hospital-associated bacteria. Because few studies of microbial communities are strain-resolved, we know little about the extent to which specific strains persist in the hospital environment and disperse among infants. To study this, we compared 304 near-complete genomes reconstructed from fecal samples of 21 infants hospitalized in the same intensive care unit in two cohorts, over 3 years apart. The genomes represent 159 distinct bacterial strains, only 14 of which occurred in multiple infants. Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus epidermidis, common infant gut colonists, exhibit diversity comparable to that of reference strains, inline with introduction of strains from infant-specific sources rather than a hospital strain pool. Unlike other infants, a pair of sibling infants shared multiple strains, even after extensive antibiotic administration, suggesting overlapping strain-sources and/or genetic selection drive microbiota similarities.

Gut microbiota, which acts as a real organ with well-defined functions, is in a mutualistic relationship with the host, harvesting additional energy and nutrients from the diet and protecting the host from pathogens; specific alterations in its composition seem to play a crucial role in IBS pathophysiology. It is well known that diet can significantly modulate the intestinal microbiota profile but it is less known how different nutritional approach effective in IBS patients, such as the low-FODMAP diet, could be Citation: Altomare, A.; Di Rosa, C.; responsible of intestinal microbiota changes, thus influencing the presence of gastrointestinal (GI) Imperia, E.; Emerenziani, S.; Cicala, symptoms.

In this study, we examined whether gut microbiota manipulation altered the anti-tumour efficacy of Tim-3 blockade. The gut microbiota of mice was manipulated through the administration of antibiotics and oral gavage of bacteria. Alterations in the gut microbiome were analysed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Gut dysbiosis triggered by antibiotics attenuated the anti-tumour efficacy of Tim-3 blockade in both C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice. Anti-tumour efficacy was restored following oral gavage of faecal bacteria even as antibiotic administration continued. In the case of oral gavage of Enterococcus hirae or Lactobacillus johnsonii, transferred bacterial species and host mouse strain were critical determinants of the anti-tumour efficacy of Tim-3 blockade.

  • Staphylococcus Aureus Kentaro Iwata1*, Asako Doi2, Takahiko Fukuchi1, Goh Ohji1, Yuko Shirota3, Tetsuya Sakai4 and Hiroki Kagawa5
    Iwata et al. BMC Infectious Diseases 2014, 14:247 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2334/14/247 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access A systematic review for pursuing the presence of antibiotic associated enterocolitis caused by methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus Kentaro Iwata1*, Asako Doi2, Takahiko Fukuchi1, Goh Ohji1, Yuko Shirota3, Tetsuya Sakai4 and Hiroki Kagawa5 Abstract Background: Although it has received a degree of notoriety as a cause for antibiotic-associated enterocolitis (AAE), the role of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the pathogenesis of this disease remains enigmatic despite a multitude of efforts, and previous studies have failed to conclude whether MRSA can cause AAE. Numerous cases of AAE caused by MRSA have been reported from Japan; however, due to the fact that these reports were written in the Japanese language and a good portion lacked scientific rigor, many of these reports went unnoticed. Methods: We conducted a systematic review of pertinent literatures to verify the existence of AAE caused by MRSA. We modified and applied methods in common use today and used a total of 9 criteria to prove the existence of AAE caused by Klebsiella oxytoca. MEDLINE/Pubmed, Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and the Japan Medical Abstract Society database were searched for studies published prior to March 2013. Results: A total of 1,999 articles were retrieved for evaluation. Forty-five case reports/series and 9 basic studies were reviewed in detail. We successfully identified articles reporting AAE with pathological and microscopic findings supporting MRSA as the etiological agent. We also found comparative studies involving the use of healthy subjects, and studies detecting probable toxins.
